From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bryan Mosley OBE (August 25, 1931 – February 9, 1999) was a British actor, known best as grocer 'Alf Roberts' in the long-running ITV soap opera Coronation Street.
Born in Leeds, Yorkshire, he appeared in Coronation Street in 1961 and 1963, then from 1971 onwards. His appearances in the soap opera became less frequent following a serious heart attack in 1991 and he died just weeks after his character was permanently written out of the series in 1999.
Mosley made his screen debut in A Kind of Loving (1962). He also appeared in Get Carter (1971) playing local gangster Cliff Brumby. He is famously killed by Jack Carter (Michael Caine) who beats him up and throws him from the roof of the infamous multi storey car park in Gateshead, after discovering Brumby's involvement in his brother's death. He also starred in two stories in the series Doctor Who in 1965 and 1966.
Bryan Mosley was sometimes credited as Buddy Windrush.
