Biography[]
Mr. Treacher is a member of the murderous Neighbourhood Watch Alliance, the fascist organization that kills anyone threatening Sandford's chances at winning Village of the Year. He first appears when Sergeant Nicholas Angel points him out as a suspicious character, as he wears a large coat that could easily conceal a weapon. Angel's colleagues ignore him.
Later, Treacher appears at the NWA meeting in the churchyard. Nicholas gatecrashes the meeting and tries to arrest the entire organization, but is shocked when his boss Frank Butterman is revealed as the leader of the NWA. Treacher and the NWA attempt to kill Nicholas, revealing the true horrific nature of their crimes by showing Nicholas decomposing corpses of their victims in the vaults, but Danny, Frank's son and Nicholas' friend, tricks them into thinking he killed Nicholas, escorting Nicholas out of town.
During the final shootout, Treacher is the first member of the NWA to shoot at Nicholas, revealing he does indeed carry a shotgun beneath his coat. After some exchange of fire, Nicholas shoots the tyres on a truck behind Treacher, causing some barrels to roll out and knock Treacher unconscious. He is later arrested, and is shown making incoherent (but violent) threats against the police during his booking.
