Dean Vickers is the ex-boyfriend of P.C. George Kiss.
In September 2020, Dean meets up with George, tricking him into thinking that he was meeting with his friend Andy. Dean explains that it was the only way he could get George to meet him. Dean describes what George put him through and that he's now in therapy and on medication, but still loves him and wants to give George another chance. However, George laughs in Dean's face, saying that he just wasn't good enough for him and that he's moved on.
In January 2021, Dean waited outside The Dog in the Pond to confront George, who was with his boyfriend John Paul McQueen. Dean creeped out John Paul as he revealed that he knew of their holiday. George convinced John Paul to leave so he could speak with Dean in private. Dean was desperate to reconcile to George, who told Dean that he felt like he was being stalked. Dean later confronted George again. He told George that he had turned him into a stalker; he had a job, friends and family until George came along.
