Tyler "Beaky" Ackroyd was a student at Hollyoaks Comprehensive College who went on a class trip to France with Hannah Ashworth, Sarah Barnes and Nancy Hayton in 2006. Beaky was described by Sarah as a "complete loser". During a game of truth or dare, Beaky dared Sarah to kiss Nancy, but Sarah insulted Nancy before running off. Beaky attempted to ask Sarah out, but she politely turned him down (despite Nancy rudely attempting to shoo him).
