Percy Sugden

Percy arrived in the Street in 1983. Originally the caretaker at the community centre, he eventually became Emily Bishop's lodger. Percy had unwanted female attention thanks to Phyllis Pearce and Maud Grimes. Percy had a budgie called Randy who he tried to mate with Mavis Riley's budgie Harriet. In 1997, Percy's quiet life was shattered when the Battersbys moved next door. Percy couldn't stand his overbearing new neighbours, so he decided to move into a retirement complex, Mayfield Court
