Guy is a main character in series 2 of the BBC sitcom Not Going Out.

Guy is a successful, sophisticated, 51-year-old entrepreneur. First seen in the episode Gay, Guy was Lucy's new boss and soon became her new friend. Due to a mis-understanding, Lucy initially thought Guy was gay - however, even then, she was clearly attracted to him and attempted to 'turn him straight'. When it transpires that Guy is actually straight and fancied her, it wasn't long before they were locking lips. Lee and Guy were unlikely to ever get on. They share nothing in common and the fact that Guy dominated life in the flat and got to kiss the lady Lee loves was clearly a problem for him. As a result, Lee made jokes about how much older Guy was compared to the rest of them at every opportunity he got. He also tried to find ways to dis-credit Guy (for example breaking into his office to try and find evidence that he is a gangster). It emerged during the series that amongst Guy's business interests was a lap-dancing club. Guy and Lucy split up after she found him to be too controlling.

Guy is rarely mentioned following their breakup, but he attends Lucy and Lee's wedding in Series 7, suggesting that he and Lucy still remained friends.
