Once saw him coming out of a bookmakers in Lincoln (he was in a play at the time at the Theatre Royal). Even at the young age that I was, I thought obviously Eddie Yates was just Geoffrey Hughes but with another name! |

so many actors are shy.

Also played the voice of Paul MacCartney in the animated film "Yellow Submarine", but for me will allways be Eddie Yates in Coronation Street. |

Great memories of some great lines delivered by Great Brit Scouser, BIG Geoffrey Hughes R.I.P.
c.1966 'Z-Cars'. As a 'scally'wag heavy in a train corridor blocked by several cops, "Gerr outta me road - scuffers !!"
c. 1974 'The Binmen'. "Piggin Colin Bell ?"
c. 1990s 'Keeping Up Appearances'. Nagged by Daisy for wearing his string-vest & baggy jeans to visit Hyacinth, "You didn't tell me it was a formal do." AND, commenting on a passing tramp, "There are some right scruffs around, these days !"
