When Les walked in , he saw Mick with fellow - copper Emma Watts already there and was put off staging his show in front of them but Kirk prevailed on him to continue .

You were supposed to duck , pal ! " , everyone in the pub knew they ' d been an unsuspecting audience of a put - on show . Back at No . 5 , Swanny asked for his £20 fee and when Kirk revealed he had no money , he received a similar black eye to the one that Les sported .

Les Carter Les Carter was a tenacious journalist on the " Weatherfield Gazette " who picked up a story that women from Weatherfield had behaved badly on a trade exchange visit with the citizens of Charleville in France . He traced the story to Coronation Street where Bet Lynch told him that all the women she knew who were on the trip were happily married . He parried with “ Isn ’ t it the bible that says never give a wicked woman the liberty to gad abroad ? ” , amusing Bet . He then went into Baldwin ' s Casuals where guilty parties Vera Duckworth and Ivy Tilsley refused to help and Mike Baldwin pointed him in direction of Hilda Ogden for his story . He told Alf Roberts that he tried to get information from the Mayor but couldn ’ t get past his secretary . In desperation , he rang France and spoke to a journalist colleague in Charleville from where he obtained the story of the women leaving an official dinner to party outside with a group of ex - paras . They ended up playing football in the road with the hat of a gendarme who had been called out to see what the commotion was about and a pair of women ’ s knickers ( Vera ’ s ) was hoisted up a flagpole . A slightly blurred photograph was also supplied which Bet claimed to Carter showed no one she knew , although she confessed to Betty Turpin that one definitely looked like Ivy .
