Policeman ( Philip Sanders ) The Policeman was an officer based at Weatherfield Police Station who came into contact with residents of Coronation Street on several occasions . On his first visit in April 2006 he was one of two officers who called at No . 8 when Gail Platt made a complaint that she was being sent cards by her former dead husband Richard Hillman . Gail accused various people of being behind the morbid practical joke , principally Eileen Grimshaw , and was finally moved to call in the police when she was laughed at by the Street residents in the Rovers . The policeman seemed strangely unfamiliar with the story of Richard Hillman , asked who had a grudge against her and could only suggest that she passed on any further cards straight to them . A few weeks later they called back when another card was received however Gail was devastated to discover that her own son , David , was the one behind the sending of them . In December of the same year , he and his colleague were called out when Tracy Barlow staged a violent row with Charlie Stubbs in No . 6 , attempting to get her own back on him when she found that he had slept with Maria Sutherland . Tracy feigned that the " row " was over and she didn ' t want to press charges for a supposed assault . One month later , Tracy ' s mind games on Charlie found a victim in stepbrother Peter Barlow when Charlie was led to the conclusion that Tracy was having a fling with him . Never having met Peter before , Charlie was unaware of the true nature of their relationship and violently assaulted Peter . The Police arrived later and arrested Charlie . In April 2008 , he questioned Leanne Battersby after her restaurant , Valandro ' s , was burnt to the ground in an insurance scam perpetrated by her and Paul Clayton . One month later , Norris Cole was the victim of a teenage gang , led by Kenzie Judd , who raided The Kabin . Two days later , they carried out a similar raid on Roy ' s Rolls and the Policeman again investigated the incidents . In October of the same year , he was one of two officers who turned up in the café and arrested Becky Granger several days after she went on a drunken rampage after finding out that boyfriend Jason Grimshaw wanted to rekindle his relationship with his ex - wife Sarah . In January 2009 , Maria Connor tried to run over Tony Gordon when her suspicions that he had killed her husband Liam were at their most acute . She ended up injuring herself as well in the attempt when she veered slightly away at the last minute and crashed the car . The policeman interviewed the residents about what they had seen . His last visit to the Street was in August 2009 when he was one of several officers called to the Rosamund Street Medical Centre when Joe McIntyre , addicted to prescription drugs , went berserk in search of his next fix . Joe was arrested for burglary but released on bail to appear in court a week later . List of appearances . 2006 2007 2008 2009
