Greg was a restaurant critic from the Gazette who conducted reviews at Nick's Bistro in both August 2011 and March 2012. On his first visit he was served by Gail McIntyre, who had recently been hired as a waitress, but she was overbearingly enthusiastic and lost a nail in his food. Greg subsequently left. Proprietor Nick Tilsley in turn told his mother that she was not cut out for the job, demoted her back to her cleaner's role and appointed Eva Price as waitress.
