William Roache has dismissed speculation that Coronation Street’s Ken Barlow is to die anytime soon, insisting he will be on the soap until show bosses no longer want him.
The 87-year-old star has played Ken in the ITV soap since its first episode on December 9, 1960.
He has revealed he had to recently reassure one of his friends that his alter ego isn’t going to pass away in the near future, after viewers grew concerned when Ken coughed in a recent scene and was subsequently admitted to hospital with pneumonia.
