Jack Duckworth gets a special farewell from Newton & Ridley
TV bosses will give Jack Duckworth the ultimate send-off by naming an ale after him.
Newton & Ridley – the brewery behind the Rovers Return – will make a commemorative keg in the memory of bitter-loving Jack.
New producer Phil Collinson came up with the idea as he was eager to make sure 69-year-old actor Bill Tarmey’s exit should stay in the memories of millions of Street fans.
A Corrie source said: “It’s a master stroke – what a brilliant way to remember Jack.
“And Bill loved the idea too. His smile was a mile wide when he heard they were going to introduce a special bitter in his memory.”
Jack is set to die of cancer and the bitter will go on sale in the Rovers after his funeral.
