[edit] Background

Tyrone first appeared in 1998 when his mother, Jackie Dobbs, came to stay with Deirdre Barlow, who had been her cellmate in prison. Tyrone was illiterate and had been in minor trouble with the police.
Tyrone was first employed as a supermarket trolley collector by Curly Watts and given a place to stay, until he accidentally pushed a trolley into the area manager's new car. He trained as an apprentice mechanic at Kevin's garage, after being found sleeping rough there after his mother had abandoned him.
Tyrone moved into Jack and Vera Duckworth's bed and breakfast establishment, and adopted a greyhound, Monica, which had strayed into the garage. Jack and Vera virtually adopted Tyrone, who has turned out to be more loyal than their own son, Terry.

Tyrone became engaged to Maria Sutherland, the daughter of a dog breeder whom he met when trying to find a partner for Monica. Fiz Brown came between Maria and Tyrone. Although they eventually resumed their relationship and even became engaged, they eventually split up after Tyrone decided that, despite his love for Maria, they were simply not well suited to being together. Tyrone is now in a serious relationship with kennel maid Molly Compton and they plan to move out of Number 9. Although he is not very smart, Tyrone is often described as "having a heart of gold".
