His Emmerdale character was killed off in 2007, but that didn’t mean the star automatically slowed down.

In 2018, Peter took up a role in the comedy film Walk Like a Panther alongside Stephen Tompkinson and Stephen Graham.
He will be sorely missed by the huge number of fans he accumulated throughout his decades-long career and of course, his friends and family, who prepare to say goodbye to an acting legend.
