Len Windass is the brother of Eddie Windass and the uncle of Gary Windass. Late in 2008, Eddie and Anna Windass refused to pay for a kitchen fitted by Joe McIntyre. As a result, Joe's daughter Tina along with David Platt and Graeme Proctor ripped out the kitchen and set it on fire while the family were out. In retaliation Len and Gary destroyed the Platts' kitchen. Eddie, Anna and Gary later rented 6 Coronation Street, living next door to the Platts.
