    Sad news today as we hear the great Johnny Briggs has sadly passed away. Johnny the Iconic, legendary Michael Vernon Baldwin who was involved in the greatest Corrie story of all, the Mike, Ken, Deirdre love triangle which thanks to these videos us die hard fans are able to watch over and over again. Johnny Briggs RIP.

      @@masterknife8423 Are you joking? Mike Baldwin was a wonderful character! He hit the ground running in 1976, and thanks to the talent of actor Johnny Briggs, arrived as a fully-formed, complex and totally believable character. In Johnny Briggs' hands, Mike Baldwin remained authentic throughout his 30 years on the show.
      Producer Bill Podmore also arrived as new producer that year to shake up the soap, and he immediately decided it needed a big Southern character to shake up the cobbled streets, inject some dynamism, and to represent all the Southern viewers at home. He saw Johnny Briggs on rival teatime soap 'Crossroads' and immediately recognised he fit the bill perfectly for the role of the new, suave London factory boss.
      Johnny Briggs could have made Mike a one-dimensional caricature - the hard-nosed, Cockney capitalist businessman. But in his first year alone he brought light and shade to Mike and made him real. To maintain that standard of performance and characterisation over three decades is a remarkable achievement for an actor - all credit to the late, great Johnny Briggs.
      I had to smile when I read that there may not have been quite so much acting required in his angry scenes with Bill Roache, who played Mike's arch enemy Ken Barlow - apparently the two men didn't get on in real life!

Even before all the tabloid problems he caused other members off screen and then the swimming pool incident (off screen). I, just saw him walking around with half his shirt buttons undone, thinking he is Gods gift to women and laughing at him. Vile individual.
