Bill Moores


Biografi

Bill Moores was born on 16 October 1934 to George and Lillian Moore – but he became Moores after his father accidentally wrote an extra “S” on the birth certificate. He grew up in Old Swan and Huyton Quarry, and lived in Prescot until his death on Monday 13 April 2015 at the age of 80.

He began his acting career in local am-dram, performing with the Rainhill Garrick Society and the Rainhill Amateur Operatic Society. On TV, he was best-known for a long stint as Cedric – perpetually drunk and always propping up the bar – in the Liverpool-set sitcom Watching (1987-1993). He also starred in Our Day Out (1977), The Spongers (1978), The Muscle Market (1981), Boys from the Blackstuff (1982), No Surrender (1987) and Riff-Raff (1991).

Alongside his TV and theatre work, he was head of the Liverpool division of actors’ union Equity for several years. He was also a familiar face behind the counter at HLS Motor Factors on Warrington Road, Prescot, and KLS on Hall Lane.

In his later years he toured retirement homes with an acting company.
