Hilda fails to turn up for work, raging in No.13 as to who reported them. She questions Stan as to how the neighbours behaved towards him while she was away, trying to identify the culprit. He admits that Maggie asked him to inspect the house. She draws up a shortlist. Billy asks Ray for a loan of £200 but he can't help him and tells him Len won't be able to either. Ken receives a visit from a man who gave Albert and Jerry a lift on the Pennine Way and who returns Albert's British Legion card. Jerry ruefully admits they didn't do the entire walk. Ken is pleased to have an opportunity to be able to silence Albert's boasting. Hilda confronts Maggie. Norma admits she and one other saw the state of the inside of the house but she won't tell her who rang the environmental health.
