The following is a list of characters that first appeared in the ITV soap opera Coronation Street in 1992, by order of first appearance.

Carmel Finnan, played by Catherine Cusack, was a student nurse classmate of Martin Platt's (Sean Wilson), whom she became obsessed with and tried to ruin his marriage with his then wife Gail (Helen Worth).

Carmel was born in 1968 to a pregnant fifteen-year-old mother. She was brought up by her grandparents, thinking she was their own child; however, she discovered the truth about her parentage at the age of fourteen. She became mentally unstable and became obsessed with Michael McGuire and she made up a story that he had gotten her pregnant. Because of this, her grandparents placed her in a psychiatric hospital and a year later, she left as a happy girl who put her dark past behind her.

In September 1992, Carmel moved to Weatherfield, England and became friends with Martin. He asked her if she would babysit his three children; Nicky (Warren Jackson), Sarah-Louise (Lynsey King), and David (Thomas Ormson) that night so he and Gail can go out. She agreed and over time, Carmel proved to be good with the children and she became the Platts' babysitter regularly.

When Carmel was frightened by a prowler at her bedsit, she confided in the Platts for comfort and they allowed her to move in with them at 8 Coronation Street. However, Gail and Martin learned there was another side to Carmel and they began to lose her trust; Carmel told Gail that her best mate Sally Webster (Sally Dynevor) didn't like her and she started treating the children as if she is their own mother. There was more concern when Carmel told a woman at Bettabuys that David was her son and when Gail discovered this from Percy Sugden (Bill Waddington), who overheard the conversation, she confronted Carmel with her suspicions, but Carmel lied her way out of the situation and explained she didn't want the woman getting at her for being a babysitter.
