Barry Platt

Barry Platt was the father of Martin Platt.

In September 1987, Rita Fairclough called at his house after she spotted Martin in Weatherfield when she had believed him to be in France with Jenny Bradley. Martin was not at home but Mr. Platt confirmed that he had been back in the country for some time. Martin later explained to Rita that Jenny had refused to return with him and had remained in France with some students she befriended.

Four years later, Barry attended Martin's wedding to Gail Tilsley, along with his wife Barbara. After the wedding, Barbara stayed on at 8 Coronation Street to look after Gail and Martin's children while they went on a honeymoon, and Barry returned home.
