Well if she owned the tenancy,then has left a codicil to a will or some legal document that indicates her wishes after her death to be that Betty got the rights to that,then although maybe nothing can come of it now, her son Billy may not have had the rights to originally sell the tenancy.

After nearly 30 years and so many changes to the Rovers,it is unlikely this document can stand up legally but if she 'owned' the tenancy and this document wasn't acted on at the time of her death then it may be possible at least for some compensatory element to be in order for Betty's estate.

An odd one but it's surprising the writers have introduced such a storyline if there is no mileage in it.
