Catherine "Cathy" Hope is the daughter of Bob and Viv Hope. She first appeared in 2007.
Since Bob and Viv's remarriage in 2006 they had wanted a child. When Viv finally found out she was pregnant, Bob did not want another child because of the death of his daughter Dawn. She was ready to have an abortion when Bob stopped her. Cathy and twin-brother Heath are born on 9 February 2007 in a shed on the moors, hence their names, delivered by village veterinarian Paddy Kirk. Cathy is the older of the twins. They are baptised in May 2007, with nine godparents; Terry Woods, Marlon Dingle, Paddy Kirk, Donna Windsor-Dingle, Jamie Hope, Roxy Lockhart, Emily Kirk, Eddie Hope and Kelly Windsor.

“Ideas are invented only as correctives to the past. Through repeated rectifications of this kind one may hope to disengage an idea that is valid.”
