William Roache, who plays Ken Barlow in Coronation Street, has a book out in paperback and he's been doing the rounds of interviews recently.
Speaking to the Mirror, William says: "There was a time when I was about 40 when I became a bit restless. I’d been playing Ken for 20 years and it seemed they didn’t know what to do with the character. He started to become a bit nerdy and I didn’t like that, but then they brought in the Ken, Deirdre and Mike Baldwin storyline and that revitalised everything. This year is the 60th anniversary of Coronation Street. I’m actually in the Guinness Book Of Records for the longest-serving actor in any show."
