Craig Charles spent a decade on Coronation Street before leaving in tragic circumstances.
The 57-year-old, who first rose to fame in sci-fi sitcom Red Dwarf, joined the Corrie cast in 2005 as loveable taxi driver Lloyd Mullaney.
The best pal of Steve McDonald, Lloyd was known for trying it on with a lot of Weatherfield ladies and even had a fling with Liz McDonald.
