Lloyd Mullaney is a regular character in the fictional soap opera Coronation Street played by actor Craig Charles. He co-owns "Streetcars" with Steve McDonald.

Lloyd joined the cast of Coronation Street as a taxi driver, but when Dev Alahan was trying to sell his share of the Streetcars taxi firm, Lloyd came to a deal with him. This annoyed fellow Streetcars owner Steve McDonald, who did not want someone new interfering with his business. However, over time they became friends.

Although he professed to be single, Lloyd actually had a girlfriend named Julie – whom he secretly visited whilst telling other people he was off to play darts. He also worked hard to form a romantic relationship with Kelly Crabtree, but she eventually found out about his other relationship. Julie had lent Lloyd the money to buy into Streetcars, making it a difficult break-up.

Later, Lloyd encouraged Kelly to plead guilty to fraud in order to avoid getting a custodial sentence, despite the crime having been committed by Kelly's old friend Becky Grainger. The couple eventually split as a result, as Kelly felt humiliated at having pleaded guilty when she was actually innocent.

After they split, Kelly had a one-night stand with Steve McDonald. When Lloyd discovered this, he felt betrayed and was angry.

Lloyd is considered brave by his friends - he rescued Steve McDonald and Ronnie Clayton from Ronnie's gun-wielding husband Jimmy, and rescued Becky Grainger from Roy's Rolls when it set on fire.

Lloyd reappeared on 12 February, 2007 after many months of being absent on screen with an unexplained reason for his absence. (In real life, the actor Craig Charles had been suspended from the show during this period.)

Lloyd went on several dates with Jodie Morton, but they were ruined by Jerry, Jodie's father's frequent requests to mind the Kebab shop and babysit her younger siblings, Kayleigh and Finlay.
