Ioan Meredith appeared on Coronation Street in two roles: as a TV Lecturer on a Welsh documentary that Stan and Hilda Ogden marvelled at on their new colour television set in August 1971; and he returned to the programme between August and November 1994 as art tutor Edwin Davis, whose classes were attended by Mavis Wilton. His other credits include A Family at War, Centre Play, Taff Acre, The District Nurse, Wales Playhouse, Pie in the Sky and A Mind to Kill. His father was the late actor Meredith Edwards who himself appeared on the programme.
