Anna Mc Intyre - Pat Gordon

Patrick "Pat" Gordon was the brother of Tony Gordon (Gray O'Brien). Pat was first mentioned on 3 October 2008 when Tony asked Liam Connor (Rob James-Collier) to be his best man after claiming that he had fallen out with his brother. However, when Liam was murdered by Tony after he hired Jimmy Dockerson (Robert Beck) to run him over in a deliberate hit-and-run, Tony's fiancee Carla Connor (Alison King) then invited Pat for their wedding. He served as best man to Tony on the day on 3 December 2008. Pat and Tony were on friendly terms, but did not seem overly close, as Pat mentioned to Maria. Pat also tried to tell several wedding guests that he had originally dated Tony's first wife, Lindsey (Susie Amy) but Tony quietened him down. Pat left the day after Tony's wedding, after unwittingly telling Maria that Tony had lied about his reasons for not being at the first wedding, and that Tony would have killed Liam if he'd found out Liam had had an affair with Carla.

Despite his brother being arrested for Liam's murder, and later breaking out of prison and causing a siege at a factory which resulted in his death, Pat never returned to the street. When Wreaths turned up at the factory, presumed to be for Tony, Liam's sister Michelle (Kym Marsh) thought Pat had sent them, but Maria said it was unlikely as Pat disowned Tony after discovering he had killed Liam.
