PlotEdit

Charlie's act doesn't go down very well at the club. Emily resigns from Gamma Garments as she feels she can't work alongside Swindley. She tells everyone she's leaving the district for good. Len is amused that Emily is interested in Swindley and advises him to go for it. Val is hurt that Ken had an intelligent conversation with Pip Mistral - she'd have rather he'd kissed her. Jack shows Irma the ropes at the Rovers. Charlie tells Dennis he won't make it in showbusiness. Swindley has a drink with Jack and decides to accept Emily's proposal. He calls at Emily's flat late at night to tell her of his change of mind.
