Bill Treacher: “EastEnders” star dies aged 92
Bill Treacher, best known for playing Arthur Fowler in BBC One’s “EastEnders”, dies aged 92
It is with great sadness that we learnt of the passing of Bill Treacher. As one of our original cast members, Bill created a much-loved character in Arthur Fowler and, alongside Wendy Richard, they created an iconic family in the Fowlers who still remain at the heart of the show. Bill left EastEnders in 1996 so it is a true testament to both he, and the character that he created in Arthur, that he is still thought of so fondly.
Bill will always be remembered for his charm, sense of humour — with a smile that lit up the room — and more importantly as a family man who was devoted to his wife and children. Bill will forever be held in great affection by everyone at EastEnders and all those that loved watching him. Rest in peace Bill and thank you for the memories.
