Daniel Burke

PC Burke investigated several incidents regarding the residents of Coronation Street. In February 2013 Gail McIntyre called the police in when she discovered that Lewis Archer had defrauded her and run off with the contents of her bank account in revenge for coming between him and Audrey Roberts. PC Burke watched the video disc that Lewis had recorded in which he told Gail what he thought of her and how he had conned her. They police took the disc away although he admitted that the time advantage that Lewis had as well as his previous record on such matters meant that finding him would be difficult.

He called back two weeks later to tell Gail that they had obtained CCTV footage of Lewis making cash withdrawals from Link machines in Altrincham, Wilmslow, Bramhall and Hale - all areas around Manchester Airport - and he then took a flight to Belize which has no extradition treaty with the UK.

In July of the same year, he conducted a search of Nick's Bistro with a fellow officer after receiving an anonymous tip-off that drug dealing was taking place on the establishment's first student night. In truth, the call had been made by David Platt who had discovered that his wife Kylie and half-brother and bistro co-owner Nick Tilsley had had a Christmas Day fling and was out for his revenge. No drugs were found but the damage was done as Weatherfield Gazette journalist Naila was on the premises and wrote up a damaging story for the paper.
