| ITV is marking Corrie legend Vera Duckworth’s demise with a special tribute programme. | 669 dni temu | ||
Farewell Vera will chronicle how Liz Dawn has portrayed her for nearly 38 years until the character’s death last week. As well as Liz, 68, the programme will feature Bill Tarmey and Nigel Pivaro who play Jack and Terry Duckworth, Johnny Briggs, William Roache, Antony Cotton, Jenny McAlpine, Alan Halsall and Vicky Binns. Vera first appeared in the soap on August 19th 1974 when Harold Wilson was Prime Minister and Annie Walker was landlady of the Rovers Return. More than 12 million viewers tuned in to see Vera’s lifeless body being discovered by a heartbroken Jack last Friday. Liz said: "It's really sad to say goodbye. My first scenes were in the old factory. I was just so nervous and yet I enjoyed it. "One day I said: 'We should get more money for this really as we're actually working a sewing machine and acting'. They took the needles out the following week." Bill Tarmey was moved to tears when saying goodbye and he added: "The way things run in the world now, there would be two dozen reasons for Jack and Vera to split up, but they never have. Till death do us part..." Julie Goodyear – who played Bet Lynch – says in the programme screened on February 3: “Vera really does embody everything that is Coronation Street.” A Corrie spokeswoman added: “ She’s gone but won’t be forgotten by Street fans. The Duckworths have become part of the furniture at the Rovers and Vera has become one of the most popular characters in the show’s history.” Farewell Vera, ITV1, February 3, 5.45pm | |||
