 |  By  |  6 comments
Coronation Street's residents gather to pay their last respects to Betty Williams in tonight's (April 20) double bill of the soap.

As the day of Betty's funeral dawns, the locals are under strict instruction to treat the occasion as a celebration of her life - knowing that it's what the long-serving barmaid wanted.

Later, once the service is over, Betty's friends pour into The Rovers for her wake. Gordon (Bill Kenwright) then reads out a moving letter penned by his mum shortly before her death, which contains some fond memories and a few home truths!

Gordon also knows that he has a decision to make after Rita (Barbara Knox) and Emily (Eileen Derbyshire) reveal that it could be worth checking whether he has a claim on the pub. What will he do?

Gordon is touched to see how important his mum was to people as mourners flood into Betty's wake
