Biography

Neville Buswell (born 20 January 1943 in Chapel-en-le-Frith, Derbyshire) is a British actor best known for his role as Ray Langton in Coronation Street. Neville Buswell attended Belmont Abbey School near Hereford from 1955-1960. He represented the school at rowing and rugby - he was a fast and aggressive open side wing forward - and took part in the thriving amateur dramatics society with leading roles in Gilbert and Sullivan operettas and straight plays such as Patrick Hamilton's Rope. Buswell first appeared on Coronation Street in 1966 and remained in the cast for twelve years, until he chose not to renew his contract rather abruptly in late 1978. He opted to move to the United States to be with his wife and her relatives. In the plot line, Ray was written out just as abruptly leaving his wife Deirdre and young daughter to live in Amsterdam. For the next thirteen years, Buswell worked as a croupier and later as a supervisor/manager at a Las Vegas casino and from 1991 as a mortgage broker. He was asked to play a bit role in the one-off special Viva Las Vegas in 1997. After 26 years away, Neville was written back into Coronation Street in episodes that aired in March 2005, for a six-week run. His character "Ray Langton" died of cancer in an episode that aired in the UK on 10 April 2005. Ray died at Deirdre and Ken's wedding reception. Buswell retired in February 2008 at the age of 65 and continues to live in Las Vegas.
