Episode 1502 (Thu 1st Nov 1990)

Joe worries why Kate has not written to him now it's been a week since she was imprisoned, explaining to Annie that she should be allowed one letter a week. He writes her a letter and asks Rachel to post it. Dolly's sure something is troubling Sam when he doesn't want to go to school. She receives a letter from Sandie Merrick in Scotland. Alan has a near miss with a lorry which speeds past him as he turns into Main Street. Seth witnesses the incident. Rachel is growing tired of the haulage drivers harassing her over the newspaper article. Chris offers to have a word with one particular driver, Badger, who seems to be harassing her more than the others. She insists she can handle it. She accidentally drops Joe's letter as she gets out of her car and Badger swoops down and picks it up before pocketing it. Amos complains wearily to Henry about the repetitiveness of his life.
