Ram John Holder who has starred in the likes of EastEnders, Emmerdale, The Story of Tracy Beaker and most famously the Channel 4 sitcom Desmond's will be joining Coronation Street

A TV legend, best known for his role on the beloved sitcom Desmond's, will be joining Coronation Street.

The Guyanese-British actor is now set to take on his latest venture as he joins the cobbles to take on the role of Ed Bailey’s dad, Sarge. A TV insider told The Sun: "Ram has already been filming his scenes in Weatherfield though viewers won’t get to see them for some months. But away from the cobbles and Desmond's, Ram has secured a series of successful TV appearances including on EastEnders in 2006 where he played the role of Cedric Lucas. As well as starring in Emmerdale, Doctors, Casualty, The Bill and Heartbeat.

But the TV star will always be best known for his role in Desmond's which first aired in 1989. The Channel 4 sitcom was set in a London barber, run by Desmond Ambrose, played by Norman Beaton, who sadly passed away in the same year the show ended in 1994.
