Robbie Sloan

Robbie Sloan

Robbie Sloan is the cellmate of Tony Gordon (Gray O'Brien) who in May 2010 helped Tony escape from prison. Robbie is released from prison after serving his sentence but agrees to a deal worth £2,000 to help with Tony's plan to seek revenge (see "Siege Week"). Tony sends him to Weatherfield to get information on Carla Connor (Alison King), Roy Cropper (David Neilson) and his wife Hayley (Julie Hesmondhalgh). Robbie later calls Tony while on the street and Tony tells him he will see him in the morning. The following day, Robbie meets Carla and arranges to meet her at the factory the following day as he is a "market trader" interested in buying some stock from her.
