Ray and Deirdre wonder if Sophie Edwards is right and Betty is Gordon's mother. Hilda hears them talking about it in the corner shop. Gordon tells Betty that Sophie gave away their secret. Betty is afraid to go into work but Gordon convinces her to carry on as normal. Ken can't build up any enthusiasm for the Community Development Officer position and wishes it wasn't in Weatherfield. Hilda spreads it around that Gordon is Betty's bastard. She thinks Betty ought to be ashamed but everyone feels sorry for her. Alf gives Ken advice on how to impress the community centre committee. Gordon confirms that Betty is his mother to Deirdre and Ray and asks them to keep it to themselves, not realising that the cat is out of the bag. The community centre committee interview Ken. Alderman Chapman doesn't like him as he's a taxi driver and doesn't have any relevant qualifications. The rest of the panel are swayed by his ideas for getting people to take an active part in improving their community.
