List of unseen Coronation Street Characters

Coronation Street is a British television soap opera. It was first broadcast on 9 December 1960. The following is a list all the unseen, but mentioned, characters listed in alphabetical order.

Alan Matthews
Alan Matthews was the husband of Cathy Matthews who, prior to his death, had tended an allotment on the neighbouring plot to Roy Cropper and Sharif Nazir. Maintaining the plot gave Alan peace and quiet away from his job as a customer complaints officer for the council. Cathy spoke fondly of her late-husband in April 2015, and told Roy that he'd passed away about twelve months previously.

In January 2016, it was revealed that he had an affair with Cathy's sister Nessa Warner. Cathy would receive more shocking news later that year when in September she came to realise her nephew Alex Warner was a product of an affair between Nessa and Alan.

Harry Patterson
Harold "Harry" Patterson was the father of Hayley Cropper (previously Harold). Hayley was raised by her father after his wife and Hayley's mother, Maggie Patterson, walked out of them. Hayley took care of Harry after he had an accident at work and became his home carer. Sometime later (just after Hayley began identifying herself as a woman) Harry was admitted to a care home where he remained until his death in February 1998.
