Happy 80th birthday! You don't look it! Hope you have a great day. It's very stormy and wet here in North Wales so hope your birthday won't be dampened too much! :)
Corrie wouldn't be the same without Bill. Here's to many more years on the street 'Ken'!! Cheers!
Utter legend!- Micky
Happy Birthday, Bill! Love him. Who cares if he went to the Pinocchio School of Drama? So did Roger Moore and it didn't do him any harm!
