Wayne Farrell
Played by: Ray
Polhil
Appeared: 1992 - 1993
"Top" (Stockport) County footballer Wayne Farrell captured
the eye of Raquel Wolstenhulme
while she was helping her then-present boyfriend, Gordon
Blinkhorn to make burgers for a football match. Raquel dumped
Gordon for Wayne, and then proceeded to bore the Rovers regulars
by talking about how wonderful her Wayne was. "He stays in
such nice hotels," she told Angie
Freeman. "There was a woman in room service who picked
up the phone in his bedroom the last time I spoke to him."
Wayne did not turn out to be a very good footballer, Raquel said
she didn't like it when the crowd on the terraces chanted "Wayne,
Wayne go away," and although she was at first delighted when
he scored an "own goal", she soon realised that it was
not as special as Des Barnes would
have her believe. There was much amusement in the Rovers when
Raquel told everyone that Wayne was "playing away".
Soon it became apparent even to Raquel that Wayne was cheating
on her, and when he stood her up on her birthday, revealing that
he was sleeping with Serena Black, Raquel pushed him in the canal
and told him that he was as bad at football as he was in bed,
leaving the way open for slimy Gordon Blinkhorn to try his hand
once again.
