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:
“Any honest examination of the national life proves how far we are from the standard of human freedom with which we began. The recovery of this standard demands of everyone who loves this country a hard look at himself, for the greatest achievments must begin somewhere, and they always begin with the person. If we are not capable of this examination, we may yet become one of the most distinguished and monumental failures in the history of nations.”
—James Baldwin (19241987)
