Rocco: Researcher

Leicester student Toby plays the role of a Wavelengths researcher Rocco. Who is he and what is he really like? Read on to find out about Rocco's character...


Younger brother to Renee, Rocco has always had a sensitive side; he just hides it well below the usual teenage boy nonsense.

At school, Rocco wrote a report on a peeping tom in Quincy Gardens. It wasn't marked and Rocco was put on detention for a week for writing about filth, but it got him noticed as being a promising writer.

What's important to Rocco is the truth and, when The Black Bull went up in flames, he set his sights on finding out exactly what happened.

Rocco knows that Eddie is the prime suspect and he also knows that he wasn't among the survivors or the victims. Rocco, although dedicated to Wavelengths and all the weekly stories that arise, is determined to use his connections here to try and find Eddie and bring him to justice.

His research is detailed and precise and, most importantly, is never wrong.

In his search for the truth, Rocco can often find himself in deep water by offending the wrong people or sticking his nose in where it's not wanted.

He is a determined and focused researcher and, once he has a lead, he doesn't let go.
