Patrick Tussel

Patrick Tussell was played by actor and football coach Trevor Dwyer-Lynch. Patrick was a cab driver for local taxi firm "Streetcars", and friend of Eileen Grimshaw from when they were in a group in which Eileen was singer. Patrick frequently served as a comic foil for Les Battersby and boss Steve McDonald. Patrick made his final appearance in January 2005, while on crutches after an off-screen incident where his own car ran him over due to the handbrake being left off.
