The following is a list of characters that first appeared in the ITV soap opera Coronation Street in 1995, by order of first appearance.
Daniel Albert Osbourne is the son of Ken Barlow (William Roache) and Denise Osbourne (Denise Black). Daniel was originally portrayed by Lewis Harney from his birth in 1995 until he left with his mother in 1997. Upon his return in 2007, the character was portrayed by Dominic Holmes. The character was recast in 2016, with Rob Mallard taking over the role.
Born when Ken was 55 years old, there is a 34 year age gap between Daniel and his oldest half-sibling: Lawrence Cunningham (Linus Roache), there is also 30 years between him and his half-brother and half-sister Peter (Chris Gascoyne) and Susan Barlow (Joanna Foster) and there is an 18 year age gap between him and his adoptive half-sister, Tracy Barlow (Kate Ford). His parents, Denise and Ken, only dated for a short time, with Daniel being the product of this relationship. Daniel was born on 4 January 1995 and was one of twins, the other of which died. Daniel was seen again in May 2007 when he agreed to meet his father. At the time, Daniel's interests included heavy metal and football. He and Ken initially got on well, but Daniel began to resent Ken's presence after he began staying with him and Denise. Ken eventually went back to his wife Deirdre (Anne Kirkbride), leaving Daniel and Denise alone once again. In the intervening years, Daniel is mentioned and Ken occasionally visits him.
In November 2016, Daniel, now 21 years old, visits Ken in hospital following his stroke. Peter, Tracy and Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson) visit Ken in hospital. They meet Daniel, who reveals he is Ken's son. Daniel joins his family for a meal. Daniel draws up a rota for Ken's care when he comes home. Daniel is suspected of stealing Adam's car when Tracy and Adam visit his flat and find student debts. Daniel reveals that Denise left him when he was 15 and struggled paying the bills. Daniel has to move out of his flat and admits he doesn't know of Denise's whereabouts, so he reports her to the police as missing. In early 2017, Daniel begins to develop romantic feelings for Sinead Tinker (Katie McGlynn), who is in a relationship with Chesney Brown (Sam Aston), however she wishes to end it. Daniel begins revising with Sinead when she has to work overtime at the factory, and the following day he is mortified when Adam realises that he is still a virgin. That night, however, Daniel and Sinead have sex in the factory store room. Adam reveals this to Chesney, who confronts Daniel at his house, and resulting in Sinead embarking on a relationship with Daniel. Sinead is later stunned to learn that she has fallen pregnant with Daniel's baby, however Daniel assumes that Chesney is the father. They initially agree to have the pregnancy terminated, however after the couple have a heart-to-heart, Sinead and Daniel agree to keep their unborn child. Sinead has a termination after being manipulated to by Ken and tells Daniel that she had a miscarriage. When Sinead feels unwell and Daniel calls for a doctor to come Sinead admits to having an abortion, leaving Daniel devastated, and he ends the relationship.
