Kim "K.C." Carswell is a fictional character from the British ITV soap opera, Coronation Street. She was played by Zoe Henry, making her first appearance on 16 March 2007. Casey was one of the women Claire Peacock met through her voluntary phone counselling; she had lost her baby. Her character has noted to the police that her nickname is K.C. not Casey, using the first letter in her first name and second name respectively.
On 1 April 2007, Claire left her new friend Casey babysitting her son, Freddie, while she went out. When she returned, Freddie and Casey had gone so she panicked and called the police, worried that Casey had kidnapped him. She was worried as she had met Casey through her work on the phone lines of a support group for women that had miscarriages. However, Casey explained that she had taken Freddie out for a drive as he wouldn't settle but was upset that Claire had called the police and left just as they arrived. However in June, Casey was seen stalking Claire, and was thought to be responsible for the fire at 4 Coronation Street. When her photograph appeared in the Weatherfield Gazette and on the news, she went to the police and was released without charge and then confronted Claire.
Casey and Claire Peacock resumed their friendship and Casey showed an interest in Claire's husband, Ashley, after Claire said she was worried that her marriage was in trouble. On 30 July, Casey made her move on Ashley and they were about to sleep together but Claire came home early. Audrey Roberts (a friend of Ashley's late father) was concerned about Ashley and Claire's marriage and saw Casey taking Claire's place with Ashley and Josh, while Claire was away (on Casey's advice). Audrey confronted Ashley, who admitted that he was having an affair with Casey as Claire didn't seem to realize his needs. Ashley told Casey that Audrey knew about their affair and Casey confronted Audrey, warning her to stay away but Audrey told her that she was just a fling that Ashley would get over. However, Casey stressed that she and Ashley were a proper couple and claimed that they had been having an affair for months. Audrey told Casey she'd betrayed Claire as a friend and that the affair was her way to get revenge. Casey responded by implying that she, Ashley and Josh would soon be a proper family and neither Audrey or Claire would be able to prevent it. Later, Audrey persuaded Claire to come home and Ashley ended his affair with Casey, convinced that Ashley secretly loved her. Claire was shocked to learn that Casey had been visiting regularly, helping out with Josh and cooking Ashley dinner and even sleeping there. Claire was suspicious so she and Ashley told Casey to leave. Claire asked Ashley if he was sleeping with Casey but he denied it. Casey confronted Audrey and told her that she pushed Ashley to break Claire's heart and reveal that they were an item. Later, Claire invited Casey to lunch and Ashley told her to stop stalking him. Casey relished telling Ashley that she's not going anywhere and continued to stalk Ashley for some time. One day she spotted an opportunity to get his attention when he left Freddie with Kirk Sutherland. Casey grabbed it, telling Kirk that Ashley had asked her to pick up Freddie and asking Ashley to phone her. She then told Audrey that she and Ashley were a couple and will be getting married. Ashley was horrified to learn that Casey had kidnapped Freddie so he phoned her and went to her flat, insisting Kirk keep this from Claire. Audrey, however, told Claire about Casey's behaviour and Kirk told her that Casey had taken Freddie so she and Audrey rushed to Casey's flat after calling the police.
