Coronation Street

Albert recovers in bed after his fall. Ken thinks that he's making the most of it. Len tells Rita they'll be too old to adopt. She can't accept that she'll never be a mother. Fred wants to spend his day off at Old Trafford but has to chauffeur Annie and Eunice to Altrincham. The brewery writes to Fred giving him an interview as they've got a vacancy. Dr Judith Hollins tells Ken that the only thing wrong with Albert is his age and he shouldn't be left on his own. Fred gets drunk as a celebration and slaps Annie's bottom. Surprisingly, she is amused. Ken tells Albert that he and Deirdre will be living with him when they marry. Len tells Rita that he was a bad father and wouldn't be any good. He tells her that no one will let her adopt a baby and asks her to forget all about it.
