Plot[]
Maureen is disappointed with her night out with Bill. Jack feels guilty selling the Las Vegas raffle tickets as he knows that he's going to win. Natalie cools towards Kevin and tells him they can't remain friends as he wants to. She tells him that she knows he's not being honest with himself and kisses him. Maud advises Bill to make a fuss of Maureen before she goes off him. Fiona is pleased that Alan is going to move in with her. Jack holds the raffle at the Rovers, getting Alec to pull the winning ticket. An old man, Mr Conway, wins but in the excitement drops to the floor with a seemingly fatal heart attack. Mike tells Alma that he'll get Curly to give her holiday before she starts but instead he tells Curly that Alma is mentally unstable and wouldn't be suited to the job. Curly agrees not to employ her. Jack gives Mr Conway mouth-to-mouth and to the amazement of the customers, brings him back to life. Vera proclaims him a hero.
