WITH a father as ruthless as Rick Neelan, it’s no wonder some people take their grief out on Kelly Neelan.
But when he realizes the wayward teen is in danger, Gary nearly kills Windass again next week coronation street†
Only a small circle of Weatherfield residents know Gary (played by) Mikey North) is able to take a life.
The character is part of the Street’s most notorious serial killers and his murderous streak appeared for the first time when he tried to take loan shark Rick Neelan down†
However, by Rick’s daughter Kelly (Millie Gibson), Gary made a promise to herself to take care of her without ever telling her the truth about his actions.
Lucky for him, Rick’s estranged wife Laura Neelan took the blame.
But when the wayward teen goes missing after trying to do good by the people her father wronged, the former army seems poised for bloodshed.
Next week, Gary and his wife Maria Connor (Samia Longchambon) realize that Kelly never came home.
He then puts two and two together when Aadi Alahan (Adam Hussain) tells them that Kelly has gone to another former client of her father’s.
Meanwhile, Kelly gets a phone call from one of her captors named Kieran, who tells her to text Gary to tell him she’s okay.
