DC Gough was the detective who investigated the raid on the Rovers Return Inn after the Street's Millennium party in January 2000 by two Villains sent by Jez Quigley. He questioned Vinny Sorrell on his whereabouts in the hours leading up to the raid and elicited a statement that he had been seeing a woman named Pauline Scott in Salford, much to the anger of landlady and girlfriend Natalie Barnes however when Gough had gone, Vinny confessed that he actually had a daughter named Lisa by her and it was her that he went to see. Devoid of leads, the police investigation came to nothing.
