Tony, Viki and Victor

Tony Harris came to town and was revealed to be Victor Lord's long lost son. Tony and Victor shared an emotional reunion. Victor's wife, Dorian, became incredibly jealous and schemed to make the two men enemies. Tony and Victor's battle escalated when Tony announced he was building a "swinging singles" bar on the road that led to Llanfair. Dorian did her best to come between father and son and eventually convinced Victor to change his will, making her the primary beneficiary.

Discovering Dorian's hand in causing the rift in their relationship, Tony told his father everything. Later, Victor confronted Dorian and the ensuing fight ended with Victor suffering a stroke from which he never recovered. Victor died under mysterious circumstances before being able to tell Viki the depths of Dorian's treachery.

Tony received nothing from his father's will and focused his attention on his marriage to Cathy, who was battling mental illness. Following the kidnapping of his nephew Kevin, Tony realized he could no longer be with his wife and once again turned to Pat. Pat persuaded Tony to do the honorable thing and stay with Cathy, who was doing well in therapy. Eventually, a healthy Cathy gave Tony his freedom to be with Pat.
