Richard Hillman

Richard was one of the most wicked characters I have even seen on television (right up there with Francis Urquhart or Flea-fav Servalan). The defunct Coronation Street character is set to turn up as another baddie in Where The Heart Is.

At first locals welcome him, believing he has come to save Goddards paper factory and their jobs. But viewers will soon suspect that he has a hidden agenda. A show spokesman said: “We are sure Brian’s addition to the cast will prove popular.” It will be Brian’s first major TV role since Hillman’s canal death plunge was seen by 19.4million viewers — making it the most popular show of 2003.

As a fellow Corrie watcher, I wholeheartedly agree. Hillman's reign of terror was probably the best 'evil character' storyline I've ever seen on any kind of television, and Brian Capron's acting was brilliant.
