Character History

Series 5

Matty first appears in Franky when he runs into Franky Fitzgerald (Dakota Blue Richards) at a secluded part of the city, after her meltdown at school, courtesy of Mini McGuinness and Nick Levan. Franky, who was in distress, immediately reacts with hostility towards him, drawing her gun on him and yelling at him to leave. Matty, however, simply approaches and challenges her to shoot him. He then tells her that she is beautiful, which takes Franky completely by surprise, and leaves. This experience empowers Franky enough to persuade her to confront Mini later at a party.^[2]
