On 30 July 2010, in the middle of a heated argument with John and former teaching colleague Charlotte Hoyle (Becky Hindley), Colin suddenly collapses and dies as a result of injuries sustained from Ben beating him up.

Occupation English Teacher (until 2011)
Headmaster (2011-13)

Brian Packham was the head of the English department at the high school where John Stape (Graeme Hawley) gets a job working under the name of Colin Fishwick (David Crellin). John has stolen Colin's identity to apply for the job as John's criminal record, which he got due to kidnapping Rosie Webster (Helen Flanagan) in 2008, prevented him from doing so.

The day after John starts his new post as Colin, Brian calls to say that 'Colin' has left his mobile phone at school and that he is on his way round to the house to drop it off. When he arrives, he invites himself in and Fiz (Jennie McAlpine) and John worry as they try to hide their true identity within their own house.

Brian returns to the Street in October 2010, when he knocks on John's door to tell him that Colin's mother had contacted the school for his details in order to reunite with him. John is forced to lie to Brian, first claiming that he had fallen out with his mother. Owen Armstrong (Ian Puleston-Davies) then knocks on the Stapes' door and speaks to John about his brother-in-law Chesney's (Sam Aston) relationship with his daughter Katy (Georgia May Foote). He calls John by his name in front of Brian and, after Owen leaves, John tells Brian that he has had to change his name because he had witnessed a murder and was in hiding from a gangland boss. Brian agrees to keep John's secret. Brian then meets Fiz's colleague Julie Carp (Katy Cavanagh) and they have a drink in the Rovers. Brian keeps winking at John whenever he is speaking to him and John tells him to stop, in case it draws attention to him. It isn't long before an attraction develops between Brian and Julie and they start dating. John, terrified that his deception will be uncovered, tries to sabotage their relationship. When Brian and Julie have a romantic meal at a restaurant, John calls Brian's ex-wife and she later shows up and Brian is forced to tell Julie he is married. Julie leaves, devastated. Brian spends the night at the Stapes' and hides when Julie calls at the house. John then convinces Brian to go back to his ex-wife and give his marriage a second chance and he leaves.

He returns in June 2011, questioning Fiz over John's crimes and recent disappearance. Julie sees Brian at Number 5 but angrily storms out after how he left her, though she later admits to Fiz that her feelings for him remain. Julie again comes into contact with Brian when taking Sean's (Antony Cotton) son Dylan Wilson (Connor and Liam McCheyne) to a reading group at Bessie Street Primary School where Brian now works. Brian soon follows her back to the Street and asks her out, with a delighted Julie accepting.

In February 2012, Julie discovered she was pregnant, and Brian being the father. However, she didn't know that Brian had previously had a vasectomy. When she discovers this, Brian accuses her of cheating on him and being unfaithful. Julie is adamant that she had not been with anyone else and that Brian is the actual father, which was true. After a conversation with fellow ex-teacher Ken Barlow (William Roache), Brian realised that vasectomies weren't always 100% effective and that he really was the father of Julie's unborn child. He then apologises to Julie for not believing her and they resume their relationship. Julie discovers that she is not pregnant but has a growth, which led to a positive pregnancy test. To remove the growth Julie has both of her ovaries removed, which means that she cannot have biological children, which both Brian and Julie are upset about.

It was revealed on 18 February 2013 that Gunn's contract would not be renewed and the character departed on 18 December 2013.[3] He return in 2015 to tie in with the exit of Julie.[4]

Brian returns in June 2015, desperate to win Julie back. He knocks on the front door of the flat that he and Julie used to live in. When he is there, he bumps into a parent from the school he used to teach at, Beth Sutherland. She reveals that Julie has moved on and is now with Dev Alahan as she finally got over Brian dumping her. The next week, Brian bumps into Julie. She is shocked to see him and tells him that she had heard that he was back in the area. She also reveals that she is over Brian and he should let go of her. He reveals that he has quit his job in Wales for her and also reveals that they have won a holiday in a competition that they entered when they were together and tries to persuade Julie to go away on their holiday with him. He however, remains determined to win her back. He is also reunited with his best friend, Ken Barlow and moves in with him.

In September 2016 it was confirmed that Brian will be returning in November that year.[5]

To try to get Chris sacked, Lloyd informs Owen of Chris's violent nature but Owen isn't sure whom to believe and Chris tells Lloyd to back off. Cheryl soon get a job at local takeaway Prima Doner, and when Chris finds out he soon hangs around Cheryl, and later informs her about his & Lloyd's argument outside Underworld. Chris and Cheryl's son, Russ runs off after Lloyd and Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) are talking about Lloyd and Cheryl's relationship and it turns out that he goes to Chris, who decided to take him home rather than call Cheryl. Lloyd punches Chris in the street after he winds him up about the situation.

In October 2010, Chris goes on a date with Maria Connor (Samia Ghadie), but Lloyd again hampers things by informing Maria of Chris's violent side. Maria quickly makes her excuses and leaves, with Chris not happy at Lloyd's interference, and later on warns Cheryl that Lloyd should stay out of his life otherwise watch himself.

In December 2010, Chris is a guest at Peter Barlow's (Chris Gascoyne) stag night party at The Joinery Bar. He provokes Lloyd several times during the evening and eventually trips him over on purpose. This causes Lloyd to lash out and punch Chris in the face and they break into a fight. The fight is cut short however when a huge explosion tears through The Joinery. Chris is shown to be injured under the rubble when Lloyd saves Chris by lifting him to safety. Chris is grateful for this and is later shown being tended to in The Rovers by Dr. Carter. Later on, Chris then apologises to Lloyd for what he did and they shake hands, suggesting they have put their differences aside.

Despite the fact that he is now dating Maria, Chris is still jealous of Lloyd's relationship with Cheryl. He pays a dodgy friend to burgle Janice Battersby's (Vicky Entwistle) flat and frames Lloyd by placing the stolen goods in the boot of his cab. Lloyd is aghast that he is being blamed for the crime, after Cheryl discovers the gearbag containing the items. However, the couple soon realise that Chris is behind the crime and Cheryl tells her husband that she wants a divorce.

After showing signs of illness, Chris is diagnosed with a brain tumour. He breaks up with Maria and Lloyd invites him to move in with him, Cheryl and Russ. Chris is informed the treatment for his tumour is working, but he tells Cheryl he is getting worse. Chris admits to Cheryl he still loves her and they begin an affair. Lloyd discovers their affair and he has a fight with Chris, which results in Chris hitting his head on the kerb. He is rushed to hospital, where Cheryl discovers his lies and tells him that she and Russ want nothing more to do with him and she later leaves Weatherfield with Russ. Chris' lies become knowledge to the rest of the street and he fights with Lloyd in The Rovers. After being barred from the pub by landlady Stella Price (Michelle Collins), fired from his job by Owen and evicted from his flat by Jason, Chris gets into a taxi and leaves Weatherfield.

Max Turner, played by Harry McDermott, is the son of Kylie Platt (Paula Lane) and the half-brother of Lily Platt (Betsie and Emmie Miller) and Harry Platt. He first appears on 29 August 2010 when Kylie visits him at his foster parents' home on his fourth birthday and she disappears with him, leaving Max's aunt, Becky McDonald (Katherine Kelly), to call the police. On 13 September 2010, Kylie is awarded custody of Max but sells him to Becky and her husband, Steve (Simon Gregson), for £20,000 and emigrates to Cyprus. In 2014, it was announced that Max would highlight the issues of ADHD, with his mother Kylie taking an overdose of his medication.

Max disappear and Becky and Steve go looking for him but eventually learn that Kylie has taken Max, infuriating Becky; so she goes to attack her. Kylie demands another £5,000; so Becky steals money from Dev Alahan's (Jimmi Harkishin) corner shop and gives it to Kylie. Six months later, Max is removed by Social Services when they learn that Becky and Steve paid Kylie for Max after Steve anonymously reports them to stop Tracy Barlow (Kate Ford) blackmailing them, after Lloyd suggested it. At first, Social Services were going to let Becky and Steve keep Max until David Platt (Jack P. Shepherd) interfered when Social Services visited Kylie. She said she was happy with Max being with the McDonalds but David told Social Services that they are not allowed to visit, but Kylie denied this. When Social Services told Becky that they were going to take Max, Becky was devastated. Becky did not tell Max what was happening, only asking him if he wanted to go somewhere, making it sound temporary as she hoped it would be.

Kylie visits Max on his birthday and Max returns to Weatherfield, living in No. 8 with Kylie, David and David's mother Gail Platt (Helen Worth). After being briefly reunited with Becky, he goes looking for her. After some encouragement from Gail and David, Kylie decides to fight for custody of Max and wins, so Max lived with Kylie and David. He is taken to the park with David and Chesney Brown (Sam Aston) and Katy Armstrong's (Georgia May Foote), son Joseph Brown but when David suffers an epileptic fit, Max calls David's brother Nick Tilsley (Ben Price) on David's mobile phone. Kylie gives birth to her and David's daughter, Lily.

Max begins experiencing hyperactive behaviour, which involves misbehaving constantly at school, running out of the house, squirting people with his water pistol, throwing toys down the stairs and even emptying the bin over Gail. David suspects something is up. Kylie and David take him to a doctor, who says that he may have ADHD. Kylie blames herself, but David says it is not her fault. When David and Kylie prepare Lily's first birthday party, Max escapes from the house and rubs chocolate cake over Steve's Volkswagen. Max ruins Lily's party by hogging the bouncy castle, kicking Liam Connor Jr. (Charlie Wrenshall) and throwing toys out of the window, which results in Gail dropping Lily's birthday cake. Kylie is distraught, as they pay more attention to Max than Lily and she thinks that people think of her as a bad mother.

Max meets his father Callum Logan (Sean Ward) and instantly bonds with him, but in August 2015, he witnesses Callum and his thugs attack Jason Grimshaw (Ryan Thomas), causing him to fear his father and refuses to be near him. Later, Max stands up to Callum when he argues with David and tells his father that he wishes he was dead. Hearing this, Callum tries to grab Max who runs onto the road and into the path of Nick's van. Max badly cuts his leg in the accident. Sarah Platt (Tina O'Brien) discovers she is pregnant after being struck by a van and finds out she is expecting a boy. Sarah later gives birth to her son, Harry Platt. Max is told by Kylie and David about Callum's death and he decides not to go to his funeral, but he and Kylie remember him in their own way.

When his school is closed, Kylie looks after him along with Aadi and Asha and Asha dares Max to go in the annex. Max gets scared when the door handle comes off. When Gemma Winter (Dolly-Rose Campbell) receives trouble outside the kebab shop from Clayton and knocked unconscious, Kylie is stabbed by Clayton when she intervenes and collapses in David's arms. Kylie passes away and Max and Lily are told by David that Kylie has died. Max decides to write a eulogy for Kylie's funeral. David, determined to get revenge on Kylie's killer, plans to kill himself and Clayton Hibbs (Callum Harrison) and leaves Lily and Max a suicide video message.

Lawrence Cunningham is the son of Ken Barlow and his first girlfriend Susan Cunningham.

In May 2010 it was announced that the sons of Coronation Street actor William Roache, Linus and James respectively, would join the cast on a short-term basis. The characters to be played were the homophobic son (Lawrence) and homosexual grandson (James) of Ken Barlow, which he did not know he had.[13][14]

Lawrence makes his first appearance on 5 September 2010, after Norris Cole (Malcolm Hebden) finds a letter addressed to Ken hidden in the skirting board of No. 3, the house that the Barlow family inhabited in 1960. Upon reading the letter, Ken explains that it is from his first love Susan Cunningham (Patricia Shakesby), and he is keen to find out what it is that she wanted. Ken soon manages to track down Susan's son, Lawrence, who informs him that his mother died a few years before and they arrange to meet. When the two eventually come face to face, however, Ken's wife Deirdre (Anne Kirkbride) notices an uncanny similarity between them and suggests that they could be father and son, a suspicion later confirmed when Ken asks Lawrence his birth date. It was mentioned that Lawrence was in a rocky marriage due to his infidelity, another trait he and his father had in common as noticed by Deirdre, but was left widowed when his wife dies from cancer.

It soon becomes apparent that there is a rift between Lawrence and his son James, who is gay, which Lawrence disapproves of. Ken visits Lawrence and tries to resolve things between father and son but James and Lawrence argue and James storms out. Lawrence later visits Ken to try and explain himself. Lawrence claims that he is entitled to his point of view but Ken is disgusted by Lawrence's homophobia and throws him out. Lawrence has not been seen since. In 2015, he couldn't attend his stepmother Deirdre funeral.

James Cunningham is the grandson of Ken Barlow (William Roache), played by Roache's real-life son James. James is the son of Ken's illegitimate son Lawrence, whom he did not know existed until 2010 when Norris Cole (Malcolm Hebden), who lives in Ken's old house, discovers a letter from Ken's former girlfriend Susan Cunningham (Patricia Shakesby) behind a skirting board telling him she was pregnant with his child. After Ken contacts Lawrence, he discovers he has a son, James, and a daughter, Chloe. James visits Ken in The Rovers and tells him he does not get on with his father because he is gay. James reveals that he works at a charity shop and has been a musician, playing the guitar. Ken visits Lawrence at his home and tries to resolve things between his son and grandson but James storms out after another argument with his father erupts. Ken falls out with Lawrence as he feels he cannot accept his son's homosexuality. James later visits Ken at his home and reveals that he did not make it easy for Lawrence to accept him being gay by having an older boyfriend and rubbing his father's face in his sexuality. James tells Ken that he should not bother trying to change Lawrence's views and that he is happy that he has a new grandfather, telling Ken it is a result. In October 2010, James sends Ken a card on his 71st birthday, indicating that they have kept in touch.

James visits the Barlows again at the end of April 2011, meeting Ken's adopted daughter Tracy (Kate Ford) for the first time. When James explains that he is moving to the area, as the charity he works for are opening a homeless hostel locally, Ken offers him a place to stay while he gets settled. James accepts the offer and moves in a few days later.

Sophie Webster (Brooke Vincent) and her girlfriend Sian Powers (Sacha Parkinson) work at the soup kitchen with James as volunteers, after he persuades them to join. The premises is burgled and Sophie gives James money for repairs, angering her father Kevin (Michael Le Vell), who disapproves of the venture. However, Sophie ignores him and carries on working at the centre. She steals £20,000 from Kevin's scratchcard money, to fund the venture. When the soup kitchen is revealed to be a fake set up by a gang of con artists, Kevin is furious and confronts James, who claims to know nothing of the scam. When James gets a surveyor to value the Barlows' house, Tracy's daughter Amy (Elle Mulvaney) overhears an incriminating conversation and says she is going to tell Tracy and Ken. James threatens Amy, saying that the man could send Tracy back to prison. Tracy confronts James, who denies everything. Ken and Deirdre believe him. However, when Ken discovers that James has fraudulently obtained a cheque for £50,000 against the house, James says that he would rather be a conman than be a miserable old man like Ken. As Ken is about to phone the police, James attacks him knocking him unconscious. James then gets his belongings and leaves.

Jack Webster (also Dobbs), played by twins Jaxon and Maddox Beswick from 2010 to 2016, and Kyran Bowes from 2016, made his first screen appearance on 6 September 2010. Of Jack, Kate White writing for Inside Soap said "We love baby Jack Webster. He's gorgeous and keeps giving Sally looks that say, 'I've got the measure of you!' Our new favourite soap little'un!"[15] The role was recast in 2016 to 5-year-old Kyran Bowes.[16][17]

Jack is the son of Kevin Webster (Michael Le Vell) and Molly Dobbs (Vicky Binns). He was born on 6 September 2010 after being conceived during an affair between Kevin and Molly, the previous year. He is named after close family friend Jack Duckworth (Bill Tarmey). Molly's husband Tyrone (Alan Halsall) was unaware of Molly's affair with Kevin and initially believed Jack to be his son. At Jack's christening Kevin steals his soother to get a DNA test. Kevin receives the results the next day confirming that he was actually Jack's father. He then confronts Molly with the results as Jack Duckworth overhears the conversation from the stairs but he does not tell Tyrone. Molly finally admits to Tyrone that he is not Jack's father and that she had an affair. Tyrone is distraught and tells Molly never to come back as she is leaving. Molly is in the Corner Shop with Jack, saying goodbye to her boss Sunita Alahan (Shobna Gulati) when Kevin comes in to buy some milk. She tells him to say goodbye to Jack, which he does. He then leaves the shop and just as Molly is about to leave, an explosion tears through the shop, after a tram derails and crashes on to the Street. Molly protects Jack and the pair are buried by rubble. After Jack's crying is overheard, they are found and Jack is rushed to hospital with Tyrone. Molly is fatally injured and with her dying breath, confesses to Kevin's wife Sally (Sally Dynevor) that Kevin is Jack's father. She then says that Jack is the only thing she did not regret from her affair with Kevin and asks Sally to look after Jack, before dying.

At Molly's funeral Tyrone realises that Kevin is Jack's father and punches him, causing him to fall into Molly's grave. Sally later takes Jack from Gail McIntyre (Helen Worth) who is looking after him, and gives him to Tyrone saying that Kevin does not deserve Jack and that Tyrone is the only father he knows. After Tyrone expresses doubts at having to bring up another man's child, he forces Kevin to take Jack. Kevin brings Jack home much to both Sally and their daughter Rosie's (Helen Flanagan) consternation. Kevin moves out of the family home, taking Jack with him, but returns a few days later after getting himself a new flat. Rosie and her boyfriend Jason Grimshaw (Ryan Thomas) take Jack to a modelling shoot and Rosie accidentally picks up the wrong baby, a girl, and leaves Jack at the studio. When Kevin eventually finds him, he tells Rosie that she is selfish and that he wants her to stay away from him and Jack, leaving Rosie devastated. Rosie and Kevin later make up, however, and when Kevin and Sally attend a hearing to decide whether Sally is entitled to have half of Kevin's lottery scratchcard winnings, Rosie offers to look after Jack again and Kevin lets her do so. After Kevin is injured in an accident at work, Sally offers to look after Jack and lets him stay with them until he has recovered. Jack leaves Weatherfield with his father to look after Kevin's dad being sick.

When Jack and Kevin return, Kevin starts a relationship with Jenny Bradley (Sally Ann Matthews). Jack's sister, Sophie Webster (Brooke Vincent), doesn't approve of the relationship as she suspects Jenny is up to something, but Kevin refuses to listen. Jenny becomes attached to Jack and it is later discovered that Jenny's son, Tom, died after drowning in a paddling pool and he was the same age as Jack. Jenny plans to take Jack and rents a flat in Hull under the name 'Jenny Midgeley". Jenny is found in Hull by Kevin, Sophie and Rita Sullivan (Barbara Knox) and Jenny hands Jack back after Rita talks to her. When Jenny returns to the street, Jack wonders in the factory and when Jenny takes Jack to Kevin, she is accused of taking him.

Occupation Police officer

Detective Sergeant Redfern, played by Paul Warriner, is a local police officer. He is first seen, as a Detective Constable, when he investigates the accident in which Graeme Proctor (Craig Gazey) is run over by a car driven by David Platt (Jack P. Shepherd). Graeme's girlfriend Tina McIntyre (Michelle Keegan), David's ex-girlfriend, tells Redfern that she thinks that David ran Graeme down deliberately. Redfern arrests and interviews David and he claims that he cannot remember anything before the accident. Redfern charges David with attempted murder but it is later discovered that he was suffering an epileptic fit when the accident occurred.

Redfern reappears in January 2011 to investigate the attack on Tracy Barlow (Kate Ford) on New Year's Eve. Redfern and his colleague DC Moore (Pooja Shah) interview Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson), Nick Tilsley (Ben Price), Gail McIntyre (Helen Worth) and David, all of whom have a motive for attacking Tracy. Redfern and Moore encounter Norris Cole (Malcolm Hebden) and Mary Taylor (Patti Clare) in the Street and ask them for information about the attack and Norris implicates Becky McDonald (Katherine Kelly) as a potential suspect. Redfern recognizes Mary and reveals that he investigated an incident involving her and a chainsaw. As Redfern and Moore question Becky at The Rovers, she makes it clear that she does not like Tracy and tells the detectives that she does not have to prove anything to them.

After Tracy regains consciousness, Redfern and Moore later arrest Becky after Tracy identifies her as her attacker, and Becky denies this when being questioned. Claire Peacock (Julia Haworth) then goes to the police station and confesses to being Tracy's attacker. Redfern interviews Claire and offers her a solicitor. Claire refuses and describes the attack to Redfern. The following day, Claire surrenders her passport and is released on bail, pending further enquiries. The detectives then return to the hospital to get a revised statement from Tracy. The following day, after completing their enquiries, Redfern and Moore return to the Street to arrest Claire, but she hides in the ginnel behind a bin and Redfern does not find her. After falling for a decoy set by Steve and Tina, Redfern and Moore give up and drive away, allowing Claire to make her escape with her sons Joshua (Benjamin Beresford) and Freddie (Niall and Luke Beresford) with the help of Jason Grimshaw (Ryan Thomas) who drives them to the airport.[18]

Redfern returns once again in June 2011 when John Stape (Graeme Hawley) goes on the run after being exposed as the killer of Charlotte Hoyle (Becky Hindley) after holding Charlotte's parents Alan (Michael McStay) and Dorothy (Jean Fergusson) prisoner in their cellar along with his brother-in-law Chesney Brown (Sam Aston). Redfern questions John's wife Fiz (Jennie McAlpine) about his whereabouts and his mental state. Fiz tells Redfern everything she knows about John's crimes and explains that he was on anti-depressants and shows Redfern the medication. Redfern later tells Fiz and Chesney that there have been sightings of John on CCTV but they have no other leads. Redfern asks Fiz if John has any friends who could be unwittingly sheltering him and she suggests Brian Packham (Peter Gunn). The following day Redfern informs Fiz that John was seen frequently visiting Joy Fishwick's (Doreen Mantle) house in the weeks leading up to her death. He asks Fiz if she knows anything about John's visits to Joy but she denies it. Redfern attends the hospital and takes more details from Fiz after he kidnaps their daughter Hope (Sadie Pilbury and Harriet Atkins). Redfern, along with Fiz and Chesney, pursues John on to the roof of the hospital and after handing Hope over to Fiz he jumps from the rooftop. Redfern later informs Fiz that John's body has not been found, indicating that he had survived the fall and escaped. By this time Redfern has been promoted to Detective Sergeant.

The following day, Redfern visits Fiz in her hospital room and reveals that they know John worked at a school in Rochdale, teaching under Colin Fishwick's (David Crellin) identity. Fiz denies any knowledge of this. Redfern later visits Fiz at home with a female detective and after informing her that John had been sighted on CCTV boarding a ferry to Ireland at Holyhead, he tells her that they have discovered that she fraudulently obtained money from Joy Fishwick's will by posing as Colin Fishwick's wife. Fiz then breaks down and reveals that Colin is dead and she helped John dispose of his body and Redfern arrests her for Colin's murder. At the police station, Fiz explains to Redfern that she found John digging up Colin's body from underneath the Underworld factory, where she worked, and that she helped John dispose of the body by dumping it in the canal. Fiz then takes Redfern to the canal and shows him the location where they dumped the body. Back at the police station, Redfern continues to interrogate Fiz and she denies knowing that Colin was dead, before the previous week, and denies being involved in his death. Fiz's solicitor asks for the interview to be terminated and Redfern arrests her for the unrelated crime of fraudulently obtaining the money from Joy's will by deception and Fiz is held in custody overnight.

Redfern returns to speak to Carla Connor (Alison King), while she is drinking in the Rovers. Carla is defensive and accuses Redfern of being heavy handed towards her. Peter Barlow (Chris Gascoyne) intervenes and asks Redfern to back off and Redfern tells him that he is obstructing police duties. Carla tells Redfern that she is too drunk to speak to him and that he should come back at a more suitable time when she is sober and he leaves.

Redfern visits Fiz again while she is holding a children's party with Maria Connor (Samia Smith), Sean Tully (Antony Cotton) and Marcus Dent (Charlie Condou). Redfern tells her that they have exhumed Joy Fishwick's body and that she has injuries that suggest she was involved in a struggle. Fiz again denies any involvement in her death. The following day, Redfern questions Roy (David Neilson) and Hayley Cropper (Julie Hesmondhalgh) about the night of Colin Fishwick's death, which was also the night of Chesney's 16th birthday party. Roy and Hayley reveal to Redfern that Fiz left the party to go and look for John. Redfern then questions Fiz about her movements and she confirms that she did indeed leave the party. Redfern alleges that she helped John kill Colin and help dispose of his body and Fiz again protests her innocence.

In July 2011, Redfern arrives at the factory in time to witness a confrontation between Fiz and her colleague Sally Webster (Sally Dynevor). Redfern arrests Fiz again and takes her to the police station. He tells her that a post-mortem examination revealed that Colin Fishwick had suffered a fractured skull. Fiz tells him that the day before his death, Colin had been beaten by the husband of a woman he had been having an affair with. Redfern accuses Fiz of lying to protect John and alleges that she helped him kill Colin, Charlotte Hoyle and Joy Fishwick. Redfern then charges her with Colin's murder.

Redfern returns in October 2011 when he gives evidence at Fiz's trial. He tells the court that Fiz lied during the initial stages of the police enquiry, claiming she knew nothing of John's identity theft and that she never met Joy Fishwick. Redfern also states that Fiz had claimed that the first time she went to the Hoyles' house was when she followed John there and rescued Chesney and the Hoyles, leading to an angry reaction from Dorothy Hoyle in the public gallery. Redfern also tells the court that John and Fiz had not told any of their friends and neighbours about the identity theft, implying that they had been acting together.

On 28 October, Redfern visits Chesney in the cafe and receives a hostile response from him. Redfern tells Chesney that John has been hospitalized after being injured in a car crash and had kidnapped Rosie Webster (Helen Flanagan). Redfern tells Chesney that John's condition is critical and he remarks that it is ironic that John is the most hated man in Weatherfield but everyone wants him to recover in order to clear Fiz's name. Redfern later goes to the hospital to take a statement from John. Redfern sets up a camera to film the interview and John describes the details of Colin Fishwick's death and proves Fiz's innocence.

The following week, Redfern returns to the street. Rosie spots him and asks for updates on the case but he refuses to tell her, explaining that the investigation is still ongoing. Redfern then visits Chesney and his girlfriend Katy Armstrong (Georgia May Foote) and Chesney demands an apology for Fiz's arrest. Redfern asks to check their outside toilet where John had claimed he had hidden the hammer he used to kill Charlotte. Redfern searches the outside toilet and finds the hammer and Chesney tells him that it should prove Fiz's innocence. Redfern arranges for the hammer to be taken for forensic tests. Redfern is last seen attending Fiz's sentencing.

Joy Fishwick was the mother of the late Colin Fishwick (David Crellin), played by actress Doreen Mantle. She makes her first appearance on 22 November 2010 when she arrives at the home of John (Graeme Hawley) and Fiz Stape (Jennie McAlpine) looking for her son.[19] Unbeknownst to Joy, Colin had died in July during a confrontation with John, prompting a frantic John and former teaching colleague Charlotte Hoyle (Becky Hindley) to cover up his death by hiding the body beneath the Underworld factory while the site was under construction.

When Fiz tells Joy about Colin's job, Joy goes to the bookshop where Colin had been working. She soon learns that he has not been seen since he was attacked in late July by Ben Fielding (Dominic Gately). Joy returns to the Stapes' house quite distressed and collapses as a result of her poor health. John later lies to Joy that he has spoken to Colin over the phone and that he has returned to Canada.

On 3 January 2011, Joy reappears when John and Fiz bump into her unexpectedly at the hospital. She reveals that she has been diagnosed with chronic heart disease and is dying.

On 10 January, John visits Joy to drop off some shopping and ensure that she is alright due to her illness. However, Joy attempts to contact son, Colin, by telephone on a number John had given to her, but she discovers that she is in fact calling John's mobile. She is left confused and annoyed with John as he tries to explain why he has given her his phone number. Eventually he confesses the truth to her about Colin's death and about how he murdered Charlotte Hoyle despite his earlier claim that she was killed in the tram crash. During his confession a neighbour calls in on Joy to return an item of hers and John covers her mouth to prevent her from screaming for help. Joy suffers a heart attack and dies. John attempts to revive her using her angina spray but is unsuccessful. He clears his finger prints from the bottle and puts it in her hand to make it look like she died of natural causes.

Two days later John returns to Joy's house to remove any incriminating evidence and discovers that she has not been found yet. He is surprised by Joy's neighbour, Clifford, who helps him gain entry to the house by kicking the door down. Clifford discovers Joy is dead and calls emergency services to report her death while John clears up the meal that Joy had cooked for him and wipes up fingerprints to remove any evidence to cover his tracks.

Profile
Occupation Fire fighter

Paul Kershaw, played by Tony Hirst, made his first screen appearance on 8 December 2010. Paul is a fireman and is part of the emergency crew deployed to the Coronation Street when an explosion from The Joinery Bar, causes a tram to derail and fall onto the street. One of the trapped people is resident Molly Dobbs (Vicky Binns), pinned underneath the wreckage of the Corner Shop with her baby son, Jack. Paul is the first fireman to make his way through the rubble to Molly and Jack where he comforts her and rescues the baby, promising to be back with more men and equipment. He does return, telling her that they need specialist lifting equipment but he is obviously perturbed at the sight of the blood seeping from her body. He takes charge of cutting away the rubble from around Molly in an effort to get her out and save her life but all their efforts prove to be in vain as she bleeds to death.

Paul reappears on the street when he is called to Underworld as Eileen Grimshaw (Sue Cleaver) has got her head stuck between some railings. There is an immediate attraction between them and they date a couple of times but it is clear to Eileen that Paul is being quite stand-offish with her and she is suspicious. She is devastated when her lodger Marcus Dent (Charlie Condou) reveals that he saw Paul at Freshco's with another woman. When Eileen storms around to his house to confront him, she is greeted by Lesley, Paul's wife, who is strangely oblivious to what Eileen is telling her. Paul is forced to reveal that Lesley has early onset Alzheimer's and he found himself longing for companionship with other people. Paul and Eileen agree to be friends. Lesley starts to act violently and Paul confides in Eileen. She later invites him and Lesley for a Christmas drink, but Lesley starts to become increasingly confused and asks to go home. Eileen agrees to look after Lesley while Paul works. When Lesley starts destroying items in the house, Eileen calls Paul to collect her. Eileen visits Paul that and he explains that he has booked a one-night stay at a home for Lesley for his own good. Paul's house is flooded and Eileen invites him and Lesley to stay with her, much to the annoyance of Eileen's son, Jason (Ryan Thomas). Lesley becomes more agitated and violent and Eileen tells Paul that there is no future between them. When Lesley takes Amy Barlow (Elle Mulvaney) to a park, her mother Tracy (Kate Ford) yells at both Paul and Lesley and mentions that Lesley should be in a care home. Paul does eventually place Lesley in a care home and he and Eileen book a holiday. Lesley runs away from the care home and Paul goes to collect her when she is found. He tries to force her into his car to take her back to the care home, but she slips and sprains her wrist. The police arrive the next day, but go when Paul explains Lesley is ill and it was an accident. Paul proposes to Eileen and tells her he wants to divorce Lesley. Paul goes to meet a divorce lawyer, while Eileen looks after Lesley. On his return, he is told that Lesley has died after being electrocuted. He identifies her body and returns home to Eileen, who confesses that she left Lesley alone. Paul becomes angry and leaves. Paul and Eileen soon reconcile. Eileen become suspicious of Paul who she thinks is having an affair with a work mate named Toni Griffiths (Tara Moran) when he is actually planning a romantic proposal. Paul gets upset by this and walks out to the Rovers, soon followed by Eileen. Eileen asks Paul for forgiveness and he gets down on one knee and asks her to marry him. Paul is next seen taking part in the Bistro's Full Monty performance but as it gets to the final Norris Cole (Malcolm Hebden) comes in and tells everyone that the Rovers Return is on fire. Hearing this Paul goes to the pub and helps get Stella Price (Michelle Collins) out of one of the bedrooms while Toni goes to get Karl Munro (John Michie) out, which she succeeds before the roof caves in and kills her leaving Paul devastated. Eileen struggled to come to terms with Paul continuing to work in the fire service following the fire at the Rovers. Paul and Eileen agree it is best that they separate and Paul gets a transfer to North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service and goes to leave but decides to come back to Eileen. During a game of darts with Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) and Jason, Paul says 'Play the white man' after losing and this comment unintentionally offends Lloyd Mullaney (Craig Charles) and his daughter Jenna Kamara (Krissi Bohn). Lloyd forces Paul to apologise for making the remark but he refuses, and so Lloyd accuses Paul of being a racist. This row even affects home when Eileen and Jason fail to convince Paul to apologise to Lloyd.

In August 2010, Fiz tells John that she is pregnant.[25] Two months later, it was announced that she would give birth during the tram crash storyline and would name the baby Hope.[25] The Sun revealed that the birth of the baby "will show viewers and characters alike that life goes on."[25]

Fiz goes into labour after being thrown to the ground as a result of the tram crash. She gives birth to a daughter three months early in the hospital. Following the birth, the baby is placed in an incubator and Fiz names her Hope. On 13 December 2010, Fiz learns that Hope will need a transfusion to fight off an infection, due to her weak immune system. On 31 January 2011, it is revealed Hope has got a hole in the heart leading to Fiz's colleagues at the factory to help raise money for Hope, including Sally Webster (Sally Dynevor) who hates John as he had previously kidnapped her daughter Rosie (Helen Flanagan), and in total raise £100. Hope comes home on 10 March 2011. John then suffers a mental illness and kidnaps Hope when Fiz is rushed to hospital after a road accident, after trying to chase John to get Hope back. Fiz realises that Hope is in danger and catches John up to the roof. He eventually hands Hope back to Fiz, before falling off the roof to the ground. Hope lives in the prison with Fiz in the mother and baby unit, however Fiz is released and both Fiz and Hope return to Coronation Street to live with Fiz's brother Chesney (Sam Aston). In February 2013, Hope's mother Fiz begins an affair with Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall). When Tyrone's ex-fiancee Kirsty (Natalie Gumede) eventually goes to prison for assaulting him, Tyrone and Fiz become a proper couple and Fiz and Hope move in with Tyrone and his daughter Ruby Dobbs. In 2015, Hope starts to lose her appetite and starts looking pale. She is taken to the doctor who asks for an ultrasound scan to be done. After a MRI scan, Hope is diagnosed with neuroblastoma. Tyrone and Fiz are devastated. After Hope goes through chemotherapy and surgery, she is declared clear of cancer.
