Scott (2018 character)

Scott was a thuggish Liverpudlian bouncer employed by the Tassels lap-dancing club where Bethany Platt worked for a short while at the start of 2018.

A few weeks after she started there, Scott summoned the police to the club to deal with a punter who had gone too far in groping and then hurting Sam Bryce, one the girls who worked there. Probationary officer Craig Tinker answered the call with Jess Heywood, his mentor. Scott told them the man had form but it wasn't his call to bar him. The assault had taken place in a private corner not properly covered by CCTV and he had then absconded. It was on this occasion that Craig was horrified to discover that Bethany was employed by the club.

A week later, Gary Windass made the same discovery when he followed Bethany there. He tried to make Bethany come back home with him but she denied knowing him and Scott and his colleague were urgently summoned by Sam. On this occasion, they didn't call the police but handed out their own brand of justice with a ruthless beating as an unconcerned Bethany watched on. Craig and another colleague, PC Daniel Burke found Gary bloodied and unconscious on the pavement outside the club and sent him on to hospital, after which they took statements from Scott, Bethany and Sam, who claimed Gary had been trying to grope them.
