Bill Tarmey: The real reason I left Coronation Street
There's a sad article in The Express where Bill Tarmey reveals the real reason he left Coronation Street was because his son Carl was suffering from a brain tumour. The interviewer's byline is Nigel Pivaro. Anyone know if it's the same Nigel Pivaro who played Bill Tarmey's on-screen son, Terry Duckworth?
Yes i think it is very likely him. I did hear he was a journalist now. That is a very sad story. I suppose it was easier for Bill to tell it to someone he knew and counted as a friend
Are you kidding? What are the chances of anybody having the same name? Its not exactly John Smith is it. Hope Carl pulls Through...personally I like the Daily Star its unpretentious and a good read.
His Wikipedia entry reveals he is now a journalist (since 2006) and works for the Daily Star Sunday paper. So chances are it's him, I reckon.

ReplyDeleteYes, it is the same one. He works for the Star but the Star & Express have the same owners.
ReplyDeleteI wish all the best to Carl.
ReplyDeleteHe's supposed to have been a journalist for several years now but if he's working for the Daily Star Sunday then that's questionable.
