It's as big as a jaguar.
Its claws are as big as cups.
It has four ears, two are for listening and two are sort of back-up ears. Some of the ears are on the inside of its head.
It has a retractable leg to leap up at you better.
Its tail is made of magnets, so if you're made of metal it can attach itself to you.
t lights up at night.
For some reason it has a tremendous fear of stamps.
It only has eyebrows on Saturdays.
Its yawn sounds like Liam Neeson chasing a load of hens around inside a barrel.
Instead of a mouth it has four arses.
It lives on the moors of Craggy Island, or at least the place where there should be moors.
Many of the locals think it might be a kind of giant fox.

Hillman, a financial advisor and claiming to be a relative of Alma Baldwin, first appeared at Alma's funeral in the summer of 2001. A charming con man, there was subsequent speculation that Hillman was not a relative of Alma but simply an opportunist. He quickly became friends with Gail Platt and eventually moved in with her. He quickly won the hearts of Gail's children, Sarah-Louise and David, by buying them expensive gifts.

Hillman's dealings were questioned after some elderly people had lost their savings to him. He set up a business called Kellett's Towers, primarily centred around buy-back mortgates, and went into business with Duggie Ferguson. They set up a string of council flats, but Duggie tried to cut corners with Richard. Hillman confronted Duggie at the flats when Duggie fell several floors and was critically injured. He not only didn't help, but he also robbed Duggie of his money. Duggie died the next day and was found by Gail.

Hillman's second wife Patricia came to Weatherfield and wanted her half of the business. Hillman refused and, after a heated argument at the flats, smashed Patricia in the face with a spade, killing her immediately. Her body was buried in the foundations of the flats. One regular, Norris Cole, suspected that Hillman was up to no good, but Hillman bullied him into silence. Several months later Hillman and Gail married.

Over the following months, his business going downhill, Richard found out that his mother in law, Audrey Roberts, was worth £250,000. Over the next few months, he convinced Audrey that she was going insane, then tried to kill her in a house fire. She survived and eventually realised that Hillman was trying to kill her. She tried to warn her daughter of his shady dealings, but instead was chucked out of the house. Audrey and a friend tried to expose Hillman, but were unsuccessful.

Hillman was becoming desperate for money and needed to kill again. His next target was Emily Bishop, whose house he had bought. One night while out at Todd Grimshaw's 18th birthday party, Hillman sneaked out of the pub and disguised himself as Aiden Chritchly, a local yob who had been joyriding with Sarah and had seriously injured in a car crash a couple of months earlier. He quietly broke into a neighbour's house (who Emily was babysitting for) and brutally attacked Emily with a crow bar. The owner, Maxine Peacock came home at that point, saw him with the crowbar standing over Emily and confronted him. Hillman muttered in a sinister voice, "You should have stayed at the party Maxine," and beat her to death. Hillman staged a robbery and framed Aiden who was jailed. Emily survived the attack.

Hillman received a phone call that a lady who entrusted her savings with him had died and that the money had gone to him. Hillman was distraught with guilt, realising that he didn't need to murder anyone at all. A month later, Gail confronted Hillman, who confessed to the murders. Gail was sickened and described her husband as "Norman Bates with a briefcase". Hillman ran, but returned two weeks later and planned to kill his entire family. He was in the house when David returned home, and kept him silent when a neighbour called through the window, then picked up Sarah's daughter Bethany when Sarah returned home later, saying that Bethany would be alright as long as Sarah did exactly what he told her. Gail returned home in the evening, and had her hands tied by Richard. The kids were safe, but were bound and gagged in the family's car. Originally, Richard was going to gas the family in the garage, until Audrey, who had come around to help Gail make tea, disturbed his plans. With the help of the neighbours, they broke down the garage door. Hillman drove off, with "You and Me Song" by The Wannadies playing on the CD player, which he said was a favourite of Sarah-Lou's from a previous summer holiday. Martin and various other Street men were pursuit in another car. Gail smuggled a pair of scissors from t
