Terrible news Fred was a real one off classic character. John played him to perfection. I remember writing to him and asking for a signed photo he replied in fact when I wrote back to thank him he sent me a further letter to tell me he was going to appearing a chat show here in Ireland. A true gentleman may he rest in peace❤️

Can I have a scotch and thread?

I say can I have a scotch and thread?

The character of “unlucky in love” Fred was a brilliant Coronation Street creation and the highly dramatically skilled John played the role to perfection.

He can currently be seen in episodes from 2005 on ITV3.

RIP the great John Savident and my (belated) condolences to his friends and relatives.
