Storylines
Vicky is a custody sergeant at Walford Police Station when Shirley Carter and Heather Peterson are arrested for being drunk and disorderly. Buchanan puts them in a cell together due to overcrowding, but turns the cell alarm off due to Shirley using it to call her constantly. When Heather suffers an asthma attack, Shirley has to bang on the door to attract Buchanan's attention. Buchanan gives Heather her medication, and listens to Heather and Shirley's woes about Minty Peterson, Phil Mitchell and Vinnie Monks.

Eight years later, she interviews Bobby Beale before he is charged with the unlawful killing of his half-sister Lucy Beale.
