Coronation Street and Hollyoaks legal advisor who died after stroke 'leaves legacy of love and laughter'

Manchester's most senior judge led moving tributes following the deaths of two barristers and a court usher during a period of 'great sadness' for the city's legal circuit. Paul Dockery, a barrister for 50 years who also acted as a legal advisor for both Coronation Street and Hollyoaks, passed away following a stroke last month aged 73.

A lifetime Corrie fan, he was not paid for his advice to the show but instead asked to be included on the cobbles in walk-on parts. He appeared in Weatherfield on 19 occasions as a court usher or court clerk, after advising the show around storylines including the trials of Tracy Barlow and Becky McDonald.

"He was also much more than that of course." Addressing Mr Dockery's children, who were in court, "Your dad brought us all great happiness. It was a privilege to watch him in full flow in court."

Manchester United 'to take legal advice' before replying to incendiary Cristiano Ronaldo claimsManchester United will take legal advice before responding to claims made by star forward Cristiano Ronaldo that he has been 'betrayed' by the club, according to reports. He’s gonna end up at arsenal and winning another title 😂 My advice would be to sell him and buy Messi; tell the media “we’re happy to have the Greatest Player of all Time” at the club. that’d really drive him up the wall. Just let him go. He thinks he’s too big for the club that made him and there is no place for that when building a team.
