[edit] History
Neil first appeared on May 7, 2002. He was the adoptive father of Sonia Jackson and Martin Fowler's daughter. Sonia gave birth to baby Chloe in 2000, but decided to give her daughter up for adoption. Chloe's social worker, Diane Irving found Chloe a home with Neil and his wife Sue, a childless couple, though this was not seen on screen. Neil and Sue changed Chloe's name to Rebecca.
In 2002, Sonia kidnapped Rebecca while Neil and Sue were out. Sonia told their babysitter that she was a family friend, and snatched Rebecca, taking her to Walford. Neil and Sue worked this out and were hot on her trail.
While Sonia barricaded herself inside her house, the Millers gave Dot Branning fifteen minutes to persuade Sonia to hand Rebecca over before they phoned the police. Dot successfully persuaded Sonia to hand Rebecca over, and just as the Millers were about to call the police, Sonia returned Rebecca.
Sonia read in a newspaper in 2005 that Neil and Sue had died in a car crash. This led to her gaining contact with Rebecca again.
