Profile
Occupation Former Corner Cafe Owner

Lester "Les" Boulter was a fictional character in UK soap opera Family Affairs, played by Howard Saddler from 2003 to 2005.

Les first appeared in Charnham in November 2003, shortly after he and his wife Denise, had heard the news that their daughter Kelly was pregnant. Just before Christmas, Les and Denise moved into the area and began running their own Cafe on the site of the previous Cybercafe that had been destroyed in a fire, resulting in the death of the owner, Roy Farmer.

Les took a dislike to Kelly's boyfriend, Justin MacKenzie but eventually warmed to him.

During the first few months of 2004, Denise had been having an affair with old friend, Caleb Andrews. Les found out but eventually forgave Denise. Further shocks were to come when Les discovered Brendan wasn't his son, but Brendan reassured Les that he considered him his dad.

In Late 2004, Things went from bad to worse between Les and Denise. Les became jealous of Denise spending so much time with her tutor at Charnahm College, Christian Habgood. One night in December, Denise was raped while walking through an alleyway.

When cab driver Graham Harker moved into Stanley Street, Denise immediately recognised his voice. After months of high drama and Graham's arrest for kidnapping Denise and holding her daughter-in-law Melanie against her will in his flat, Les and Denise tried to get things back to normal but the damage had been done.

Les began seeing prostitutes on two occasions, despite hesitating. Les was arrested on the spot one day and fined. Following this, Les and Denise separated.

In August 2005, Les sold the corner cafe to Marc MacKenzie and moved up to Liverpool, leaving Justin in charge of letting his house.
