A properly lovely fellah Dean, and a superb actor. I remember being totally gobsmacked at how well spoken he was when out of character. RIP

Great character Jimmy Corkhill in my favourite soap Brookside. I used to watch the omnibus edition on Saturday after getting home from the match. Memories.

I vividly remember at half time at Ayresome Park, during Steve Pears’ testimonial, MMP comes on the tannoy and says:

“News just in, it’s life for Mandy Jordache and five years for Beth”.
