Plot[]
Don is adamant he's going to lead his own life and not be a "couple" with Ivy any more. She is hurt when he tells her that he'll do everything for himself. Kimberley spends the night with Curly but her passion is interrupted by Angie. Don moves out of his flat and into the spare room at No.5. Derek marks out the football pitch. He has to cancel a night out with Mavis to lock up after the school disco. At the disco Tracy flirts with Mark Jackson's DJ brother Stuart who's twenty. Vera and Lisa go out leaving Jack babysitting. Curly has enough of the rug-making. Gail tells Martin that they could use Carmel as a paying guest as she could help around the house. Jack sings all his Sinatra songs to Tommy who loves them. Tracy is furious when Stuart dances with Debbie Dawson. She is so upset she cries. Derek sees her but she refuses to talk to him about it. Ken takes Maggie for a meal. Afterwards he wants to take her to the Rovers but, recognising the street, she refuses. Ken, not knowing of her previous relationship with Mike Baldwin, is baffled.

Jack Duckworth (to Tom): "Never mind all this book-learning. Never mind what Ken Barlow says. You get yourself a dartboard. Better than that, yer Grandad'll buy yer one. Just think... start young and the world is your oche. Stoke-on-Trent, Redcar - all the big hotels... darts in one hand, pint in another."
