Nigel Pivaro robbed in Salford

Nigel Pivaro, who played bad boy Terry Duckworth has been robbed in Salford as he made a film to help ex-cons. The MEN says that Nigel was filming when a thief on an off-road motorbike struck. He sped past Mr Pivaro and his crew and snatched a £400 piece of sound equipment. Nigel, who now works as a journalist, and his producer Julia Berg, chased after the culprit but he escaped.

Nigel said: “It is ironic that the film that seeks to help offenders go straight was put in jeopardy by a criminal who might possibly be in need of the same advice himself one day.” Greater Manchester Police are investigating.
