PlotEdit

Samir is shocked by the proposal, embarrassing Deirdre. He feels he's had the idea so he can work, not because she loves him. He refuses to use her that way. She withdraws the proposal. Rita is angry that she hasn't been invited to see the Webster's baby yet. The Wiltons bury Harry. He tells her he does like her portrait. Raquel tries to interest Curly in helping out at the Rovers but he is aghast at the idea. Bet takes Andy on at the Rovers for part-time barwork. Sally thinks it odd that Rita hasn't called to see the baby. Samir is given the all clear at The Casablanca restaurant so he can return to work. Derek suggests to Mavis that they throw an anniversary party and invite Rita, Norris, Roger and Angela.
