Gentlemen... purlease! There's a snippet of a Coronation Street story in today's Mirror that says ex-Corrie actor Johnny Briggs, who played Mike Baldwin, reckons he's slept with more women than Bill Roache's 1,000 conquests.
The Mirror says that Johnny
said: “I’m amazed that Bill Roache said he’s slept with that many
women. What goes on in the bedroom stays in the bedroom. I was a bit of a ladies’ man myself. I don’t know if I can say how many I’ve bedded, but it’s probably more than him.”
Who's going to be next out of the woodwork to announce they've slept with even more than the two of them put together? Norris Cole?

It's kind of sad, really. If this is true and he really did speak to the press, it's like he's desperate to keep his name in the media and keeping up the traditional Ken/Mike rivalry would do it. Roache didn't say he slept with 1000, but when the interviewer hinted at it he didn't deny it. He probably has no idea how many and it's probably not that many but probably quite a few just the same. No doubt Briggs has as well. More? Less? Do I care?
ReplyDeleteJohnny who?
ReplyDeleteTVOR, well said! You said exactly what I was thinking when I read the article. Kind of sad.

ReplyDeleteA 1000 indeed - but were they any good? I doubt it, that's probably why the high number, they needed the practice.
ReplyDeleteGood for him getting one (leg) over on Ken. The unanswered question: How many did they share?
