He grabbed audiences far and wide with his tempestuous on-screen relationship with Ivy, played by the late Lynne Perrie.
Now, his will has been revealed, following his death aged 87 on September 15 last year.
Newly released documents show his estate was worth £336,755, which was reduced to £333,214 after deductions.
Almost all of this giant sum was left to his wife Judith, who he married in 1967, while £5,000 was left to his nephew Russell Johnson.
The Corrie star was described as “restless, curious, adventurous and funny” by his wife and two daughters, Gaby and Sophie.
They added: “He loved nothing better than setting the world to right around the dinner table.
“But it was family and home that ultimately mattered to him most.”
In a statement, ITV added: “His partnership with Lynne Perrie was something rather special and they gave the viewers huge pleasure for many years.”
