Interview with actor/journalist, Nigel Pivaro

In an exclusive interview, former Coronation Street, stage and theatre actor-turned journalist, Nigel Pivaro, gives the low-down on life after acting, the rise of celebrity culture and the demise of the British press. Beginning with the start of his acting career and the trials TV stardom brings, Nigel also reveals what life offered when he gave up the limelight, and how he would love to kill off Terry Duckworth.

Interesting interview. I especially like the fact Nigel Pivaro was free to speak without constant interruptions. Thank you.

[@thedigest]

Thanks Ria, I feel it's important to listen to the subject, not the interviewer. Nigel is a fab man.

Fascinating interview. Been watching Corrie since 1960 and never knew this other side to Nigel. Acting always seems to be a very precarious occupation, with long periods out of work, especially during the covid period. Good luck for the future Nigel.

Lovely to see you, been watching classic corrie and quite honestly I preferred those storyline to the ones now, I really loved Terry he wasmy era, happy memories

[@rl7012]

Have been watching some old classic corrie today and the story about Terry finding out that he had been shagging the same lady in Cromwell road as his dad Jack. Sooooo funny. I love Vera's reaction too as she booted Jack out of the house when the husband of the floozy came to the rovers and punched Jack in the face for seeing his missus, Vera then jumps to the wrong conclusion. and Terry eventually fesses up. Brilliant. Love it so much. The Duckworths were hilarious. Jack, Vera and Terry were comedy gold back in the day.

I think Terry should come back to Corrie as a Buddhist! I know someone who could advise. Great interview! Lovely to see and hear him, so entertaining, would love to see him back on tv :)

[@Carltonwanks]

Nothing "Good looking"about him, he looks completely average, even in his younger day's he wasn't attractive,
