Ken Barlow Bill Roache has some unusual beliefs about what is happening in the World

'Coronation Street' star Bill Roache reckons that the human race is moving on to a 'higher vibration' and that after 12 December the world will 'change dramatically'.

He also says a homeopathic doctor once communicated with him using telepathy.

Speaking about the date of 12 December, which ancient civilisation the Mayans believed would signal a cataclysm on Earth, he said: “This will be the Golden Age, when a majority will know they are love and they are spiritual beings.

“The earth will continue to cleanse itself while material and negative things will collapse and cease to be.” ...


It's not the first time that Roache has spoken about his unorthodox beliefs.

In January this year, he said that he had used animal psychic Jackie Weaver to communicate with his dog Poppy.

“Jackie said Poppy even did an impersonation of my on-screen wife Deirdre, saying, 'Oh, Ken' in a drawn-out, exasperated way,” he said.

It might be a Car Crash if BoC probes him on those beliefs

I hope Brendan asks him "C'mere Ken, seeing as the World is ending in December. Would you not want to try something different than playing Ken Barlow. You have been doing that since 1960, like."

"Ken, when you're ridin' Dreary, do ya not be thinkin' about Joanna Lumley ?"

"just askin, loike ?"

The jokes don't get any better.

jaysus the jokes are bad tonight... They must have lost the good writer they had last year..

Evening all, Grey I hope your arm is better soon.

I never thought I'd say this but I'd pay Liam Neeson to keep his clothes on :eek:

John Joe's staying amateur. Just my guess but who'd offer him big bucks to go pro without any knockout punch..?

Lapin

Did they honestly think those Ryanair jokes have never been heard before in some shape or form ?

Has Colm had work done on the gruaig?

Not according to today's Independent, Silvio. They reckon he will announce his decision to go Pro tonight.

Has a head like a Toby jug...Colm too!

John Joe has signed with Amir Khan promotions. Will be announced tonight

If he could deliver them, they mightn't be so bad. The guy's leaden.

Skid

There is a good scene after that where he says that the speech is a load of **** but it always gets the desired effect.

Harry Angstrom

Brendan should ask him if he'd ever consider taking a role in Fair City.

I'm so tempted to report that post, are you trolling Mr. Angstrom? :mad::D

Hard to know. It is a long time between Olympics. Maybe he is right to give it a lash, although I agree his style is not really suited to the Professional game.

Nah, he only does high quality roles, like the Halifax ads

Skid

He was great as Don Revie in The Damned United.

Paul Potts! So that's the Simon Cowell connection. Interesting.

JonathanAnon

Not a very educated audience tonight.

Welsh Megaman

A film about Paul Potts?!?!?!

Lady Chatterton

I'd completely forgotten about Paul Potts, I wonder how his career is going these days.

Ah Jaysus.

Bill Roache was on with Piers Morgan recently.

He said even his own Father has accidentally called him Ken in the past.

He should change his real name to Ken Barlow, for the craic. (Before the end of the World)

He claimed during an interview with Piers Morgan that he slept with over 1,000 women.

No disrespect to my fellow Welshman, but is Potts' story filmworthy? His 'emotional rollercoaster' of an 'amazing journey' is no different from every other SYCO contestant.

Anyhoo, met Ken Roache working as a lowly extra - one of the nicest cast members, unlike some others I could mention.
