Nick had a series of flings with many characters on the Street, the main ones being his teenage marriage to Leanne Battersby. He moved to Canada when the marriage broke down and returned for his mother's wedding to Richard Hillman in 2002 when he became involved with Maria Sutherland. Maria went with him to Canada but came back shortly after. Nick returned a couple of years later and after a brief fling with Candice Stowe, took up with Maria again. They were going to get married but fell out when he decided to take a job in Nottingham. He left alone and she moved on to others. His highest point was being the hero in a stockroom blaze in March 2004. He rescued Janice Battersby, and nearly died of smoke inhalation. He lived to see another day - and to get sacked, as well.
