Ivy is dead. The character that Don's girlfriend Josie once described
as "sounds like the kind of woman who could let you know
what she was thinking without saying a word" has finally
been killed off. A priest from the convent came to break the news
to Don, who was shocked of course although not terribly upset
by this news. He told the priest that he considered he had lost
Ivy when she left him to move into the convent. When Nicky founds
out that his grandma Ivy is dead, he blames Don, saying "you
killed her". Ivy has died of a stroke, and Don is now blaming
himself for her death because of the letter he sent to Ivy requesting
a divorce from her. A letter is found in Ivy's room addressed
to Nick, it seems she has left her house to Nick (although the
will has not yet been read). After the funeral, everyone goes
back to Don's house (including an appearance by Ida Clough, Ivy
and Vera's old mate from Baldwin's sewing factory). Although Josie
doesn't go the funeral, Don asks her to stay at the house and
she helps out with the tea and drinks for everyone. Vera causes
a scene and walks out with Ida, after telling Josie off for being
in Ivy's house with Ivy's husband on her funeral day. Much later
when almost everyone has gone, Nick helps himself to a beer and
Don tells him off saying "you can't go drinking in my house"
to which Nick tells Don that it isn't actually Don's house any
longer....
A 5-a-side football team has been set up at the Rovers including
Curly, Jim, Kevin, Steve and Des. However, they are defeated on
their first game and are ready to call it a day. They eventually
decide to put in some serious effort in training to form a decent
football team. Maxine continues to flirt with Des - giving him
a reason to get fit and lose some weight when she tells him he
can lose calories making love!
Bill Webster has finally finished Sally and Kevin's new kitchen
(despite not yet having his quote accepted by the insurance company).
Bill and Percy have an argument in the Rovers when Percy receives
a letter from Bill's wife (Percy's niece) Elaine who tells her
side of the story different from Bill. She says that Bill neglected
their marriage and walked out on her, and Percy believes his niece
rather than Bill.
Reg has a barbecue in his garden and invites Leo Firman, his new
boss. He thinks that he can have a quiet chat with Leo and get
to know his boss better. However, Maude invites Curly to the bbq
also, and Leo is being sucked up to on both sides by Curly and
Reg. Leo then spends most of his time talking to Denise and Ken,
much to Reg's annoyance.
