Craig Lee

Craig Lee was a van driver who met Tracy Barlow in October 1993, whilst she was working at Maggie Redman's florists. Because of conflict at No. 1, Tracy had already packed her bags and left the previous day. After being informed about their relationship by Maggie, Deirdre saw the pair kissing and was stunned to find out that Tracy had moved in with Craig.

Ken was horrified at the thought of Tracy living with a twenty-two year old and was angry that she was being so hostile towards Deirdre, but he persuaded her to give him their address. When Tracy and her parents eventually made the peace in November 1993, Tracy moved Craig into the family home. Deirdre and Ken let him stay on the condition that he slept in the front parlour.

It became obvious that the pair were taking the Barlows for granted and, not wanting Craig to spoil their Christmas, Deirdre asked Craig to leave. She felt helpless though when Tracy packed her bags again and left with him.
