Biography
Lou is a Ramsay Street icon, having first appeared in 1988 before returning as a regular character in 1992. His best friend is Harold, with whom he's shared many a banter, and he has three children: Lauren, Guy and Ling Ma. He also raised Cheryl's daughter Lolly as his own, for a long time unaware that he'd been deceived over her paternity.
Some might say Lou is the Mike Baldwin of Erinsborough. He has owned a garage, run a pub and been an all-round entrepreneur. He's even done some dodgy deals, including a Russian hat scam that unsurprisingly went pear-shaped.
With best mate Harold no longer resident in Erinsborough, Lou is the sole representative of the Street's senior generation. And who knows what mischief he’ll get up to without Jelly Belly’s stabilising influence…

I think Lou is great! He's gives some of the ever so spare comic moments, to often dreary teenage whinges. Get him back full time. Lou us old fans miss you!
