He was a neighbour of my mum and dad up in the north. Know the house well. He sang in the local hotel and  I met him several times.

Great shame but he has not been well for some time.

Got to admit, its the only soap that doesn't have me reaching for the bucket.
Eastenders and co do my head in but at least with corrie, there is plenty of humour and some resemblence to normal life.

Being told (by my mother) that he had a pretty good voice and used to do the club circuit.

It was a shame when he left corrie  :(
Part of the furnature.

 >:( Oh jezzus.....please,please don't tell me that there are now going to be hourly bulletins and the usual never ending repeats of that bum show on every channel they can get it on.
Gods sake corrie fans, he's dead so let him go and have bit of consideration for the rest of us who did not watch it when he was alive and certainly won't now he's gone. Pet names for some of the 'shows' I have heard are Constipation street, haemmoroid farm, *ockenders, and those are just the more common ones. Perhaps if the producers and writers knew how many dislike their products they would start to write decent storylines and hopefully even some new ones and not ones that were previously shown with just the characters switched around!
Its like watching paint dry and ultimately brain death................Who knows they might even bring back the worst of all......Tossroads... ;)

His funeral is tomorrow - his real name was William Cleworth Piddington - not sure that name would have had appeal on the northern club singing circuit.
