Ellie Leach has paid tribute to her Coronation Street co-star following his death.
Duggie Brown - a comedian and actor - passed away earlier this week, just months after he starred as Ted Spear in the ITV soap earlier this year. He has another connection with Coronation Street, and is the brother of actress and singer Lynne Perrie - who played Ivy Tilsley on Corrie for 23 years until 1994. Lynne passed away in 2006 after suffering a stroke.
And Ellie posted a poignant tribute to her co-star - who appeared in a recent storyline with Emma Brooker ( Alexandra Mardell ) - after his death was confirmed by his agent. As well as his acting, Duggie was also known for his huge comedy career.
