Corrie actor Geoffrey Hughes, 68, dies after two year cancer battle

 Former Coronation Street actor Geoffrey Hughes has died of cancer. He was 68. The Merseyside-born star died 'peacefully in his sleep' on Friday night, according to his family. His death comes after a 'long courageous battle' with prostate cancer. The actor, who lived on the Isle Of Wight, was best known for playing bin man Eddie Yates in Corrie for nine years until the early 80s. He also won over fans as Hyacinth's lazy brother-in-law Onslow in Keeping Up Appearances. In the Noughties he landed two big roles - playing wheeler dealer Vernon Scripps in Heartbeat and Twiggy in The Royle Family. Prior to his cancer battle, Hughes played Uncle Keith in an episode of teen drama Skins. 

A Corrie spokesperson said: 'We are very sad to hear of the death of Geoffrey Hughes. He created a legendary and iconic character in Eddie Yates who will always be part of Coronation Street. Everyone connected with the programme sends our sincerest condolences to his family and friends.'
Corrie co-star Charlie Condou wrote on Twitter: 'The wonderful Geoffrey Hughes (Eddie Yates) has lost his battle with cancer. RIP and thanks for all the laughs.'
