abstract
  • Dennis Tanner was the son of Elsie Tanner and a Coronation Street resident from 1942 to 1968, and then again from 2011 to 2014. He is the estranged husband of Rita Tanner, the brother of Linda Cheveski, and the uncle of Paul and Martin Cheveski. Dennis was the black sheep of the Tanner family. An ex-borstal boy, Dennis pursued a legitimate career as a talent scout for Lenny Phillips and spent a few years working in clubs. His camp, charming manner made him a natural entertainer, but his hare-brained schemes never went to plan and after a few years he quit the business. In 1968, now a sales rep, Dennis married Jenny Sutton and the two moved to Bristol. Five years later, the marriage had broken down and Dennis found himself in prison for conning money out of pensioners. After some lean years, including a spell of homelessness in late 2010, Dennis found himself back on the Street in 2011 after some forty years away. Within months of his return, Dennis entered into a romantic relationship with old flame Rita Sullivan. Though reluctant to continue the relationship for fear of sponging off her, the couple ended up realising their love and got engaged in March 2012, marrying in June of the same year. However after many complications, their marriage hit a rocky patch in February 2014 and Dennis left Weatherfield with friend and neighbour Gloria Price, although this union didn't last as he was back in Weatherfield by April. Despite his best efforts to try and reconcile with Rita, he ended up leaving in July that year.
