Notes
- First appearance of Ena Sharples since 23rd June 1965.
- TV Times synopsis: Ena's back
- For the first time since the programme began the BBC made a concerted attack on the popularity of Coronation Street by scheduling the fourth season of Steptoe and Son directly opposite the Monday edition of the Street. This resulted in this episode only being watched in 5,870,000 homes - the lowest performance in the top twenty in 1965 however things would get worse as the following six Monday episodes failed to make the top twenty, the worst showing for the Street since early 1961.
