<P> Forever letting Mavis down, Derek was usually too proud to admit he was at fault but still went to her with his problems . His biggest mistake was marrying his boss's daughter, Angela Hawthorne (Diane Fletcher) 1985, even though it was Mavis he really wanted . After divorcing Angela, Derek finally married Mavis in 1988 and in 1990 they moved into 4 Coronation Street . </P> <P> On the career front, Derek never had much luck; he usually worked as a salesman but his jobs never tended to last long, and in desperation for employment he usually had to turn to people who had caused problems in his and Mavis's lives, including Angela and Mavis's ex-partner Victor Pendlebury (Christopher Coll). Eccentric and pompous, Derek was the perfect match for dithering Mavis as they were very much alike: their old - fashioned mannerisms and tendency to over-dramatize everything sometimes made them the butt of the neighbours' jokes, especially their immediate neighbour, Des Barnes (Philip Middlemiss). </P> <P> Derek died from a heart attack during a road rage incident on Mavis's birthday in 1997 . </P> <P> In 1976, Derek was introduced as a love interest for Mavis Riley (Thelma Barlow), but it was more than a decade before the couple finally married in 1988, after simultaneously jilting each other four years earlier . </P>
