TREVOR Peacock tragically passed away age 89.
The Vicar of Dibley star was married to Tilly Tremayne, also an actor. Here’s more about here…
Tilly Tremayne is an actress and the wife of the late Vicar of Dibley star Trevor Peacock.
The actress is most famous for her role on Coronation Street as Dr Marian Taylor.
She also starred as Ellen on Poldark and as Viscountess Dalrymple in the 2007 movie adaptation of Jane Austen’s Persuasion.
Tremayne also has credits in Wish Me Luck, Casualty, London’s Burning, Touching Evil, Heartbeat.
She also had a starring role in the The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time at The National Theatre and in The Good Companions on the West End in 1974.
Trevor and Tilly have one son and one daughter.
Their son, Harry, was born in 1978 and their daughter Maudie was born in January 1982.
Trevor also had a son Daniel born in 1959, and daughter Sally born in 1961 with his previous wife.
Daniel is a writer and director, Harry is an actor and Maudie works for the BBC.
In the latter stages of his dementia, Trevor made ‘Trevor Trees’ with his daughter Sally – tree-shaped mobiles made from sticks from his Somerset garden.
Profits made from the tree went to the Alzheimer’s Society.
Trevor Peacock’s net worth was estimated at $800,000, which works out at about £600,000.
Trevor was famous for his character Jim Trott’s saying of “No, no, no, no…!” in the Vicar of Dibley
Trevor’s career has spanned acting on stage, film, radio and TV and songwriting.
His last job was in a Comic Relief special Vicar Of Dibley sketch to raise money for the charity in 2015.
Peacock died aged 29 on March 9, 2021 of a “dementia-related illness”.
A statement on behalf of his family said: “Trevor Peacock, actor, writer and song-writer, died aged 89 on the morning of March 8 from a dementia-related illness.”
In 2009, Peacock was diagnosed with vascular dementia and from then on suffered a gradual mental decline.
His family have campaigned to raise awareness for the condition.
His daughter Sally said: ‘As a character actor, he has made so many people laugh for such a long time. Sadly, now he doesn’t understand why people want to come up to him to talk to him or thank him for his work.’
TV channel Gold tweeted: “We are all saddened to learn that Trevor Peacock, who played Jim Trott so brilliantly in The Vicar of Dibley has passed away at the age of 89. Our thoughts are with his family and friends.”
