Arthur Leslie

Arthur Leslie (? ?, 1901 - 30th June, 1970) was a British actor who earned his greatest fame playing genial Rovers Return Inn landlord Jack Walker on Coronation Street from 1960 to 1970. He debuted on the programme in the second episode, and remained a fixture on the Street until his death in June 1970.

Well-loved by Street audiences and his fellow cast members, Arthur's character Jack was written out of the programme only a few weeks after his passing.
