Although the show hasn’t confirmed whether the character meets a fatal end, his departure is certain. Daniel Brocklebank revealed on Instagram yesterday (Tuesday, November 18) that he has wrapped filming.
Sharing a selfie of himself in front of an image of Ena Sharples, Daniel wrote: “That’s it. Last scene filmed. Bye bye Coronation Street. Bye bye Billy. The last 11 years have gone by in a blink. I’ve adored every moment of being part of this special family. I can’t thank ITV and all at Corrie enough. It’s been a ride. I adore you all.”
The post came just hours after he posted a photo with Summer Spellman star Harriet Bibby, captioning the snap: “My final day today working with this beautiful human. I’ve loved playing her tv dad. What an honour it has been. An incredible woman. I shall miss her terribly. Thank goodness I’ll get to see her in real life for dinners, walks & cuddles.”
