James Read Leaves 'Days of our Lives' as Clyde, Says He Had A "Fabulous Time In Salem"

James Read

On Tuesday's episode of NBC soap opera Days of our Lives, Ben Weston (Robert Scott Wilson) confessed to his father Clyde (James Read) that he was the Necktie Killer. A stunned Clyde, who was being extradited to Florida, vowed to keep his secret, and then was taken away. It was Read's final appearance as Clyde on Days.

The actor took to Twitter to thank fans for their support. "Clyde's Last Ride," he wrote. "Had a fabulous time in Salem - thank you for watching and for all your kind words and support! Rock on, Days!"

While I was never a huge Clyde fan, there's no doubt Read is a terrific actor and did good work in the role.
