Vivian "Viv" Baldwin is the mother of Danny Baldwin. She is first seen on the street in July 2005, following her husband Harry's death and later revealing to her brother-in-law Mike that he is in fact Danny's biological father, not Harry.
Viv makes a reappearance in Weatherfield at Christmas 2005, when the family go out to Christmas dinner.
In December 2006, she returns enquiring about her son's disappearance, only to find out the truth about her grandson Jamie's affair with his former stepmother Frankie Baldwin. After finding this, Viv storms back home to London.

Famous quotes containing the word baldwin:
“Americans, unhappily, have the most remarkable ability to alchemize all bitter truths into an innocuous but piquant confection and to transform their moral contradictions, or public discussion of such contradictions, into a proud decoration, such as are given for heroism on the battle field.”
—James Baldwin (1924–1987)
