Today's TV pays tribute to Coronation Street legend Johnny Briggs and sporting legend Jack Charlton

COCKNEY businessman and Lothario Mike Baldwin (played by Johnny Briggs), was, for over 30 years, one of the soap’s most memorable characters. Following the actor’s death aged 85, last month, Street stars and famous fans look back at some of Mike’s biggest storylines, including his affair with Deirdre Barlow behind her husband Ken’s back, resulting in that iconic scene on the Barlows’ doorstep, which pulled in over 20 million viewers. Other memorable moments in Weatherfield included the death of his beloved ex-wife Alma from cancer and his son Mark’s affair with his younger wife Linda. As well as being a Corrie legend, we also see how Johnny starred in a number of Carry On films, The Lavender Hill Mob, 633 Squadron, and TV shows Crossroads, The Saint, The Persuaders, No Hiding Place and Thick As Thieves.

So who will succeed them as champions tonight? It will be between the Puzzle Hunters, who defeated the Whodunnits in the first semi-final, and the Dungeon Masters, who saw off Apres Skiers in the second.

The fourth series of the gripping crime drama opened with the discovery of a dismembered body in a scrap metal yard, which the team believe had been stored in a domestic freezer for 30 years.
