Trama
Alan tries to talk Jenny into marrying after her 'A' Levels, she refuses - she loves Patrice Podevin and isn't going to wait. Alec is ill with flu so Bet forces him to stay in bed. As she's short-staffed, Bet contacts Betty who agrees to return whilst Alec's ill. Deirdre tells Ken that she's going to make a success of being a Councillor and he'd better come to terms with it. Alan feels Jenny is too young to marry. He gets her to agree to think seriously about the future. Alec hates staying in bed and worries that the Rovers will go under.
