Daniel Burke was a police constable who 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.
