Not still working are you, Bill? Oh, me too

SOAP legend William Roache compared workloads with the King as he was handed his OBE yesterday. 

Tireless Bill holds the world record for the longest-serving TV actor in a continuous role, after playing Ken Barlow in Coronation Street since 1960.

The 90-year-old said: “Charles was lovely – very friendly. He said: ‘Not still working are you?’; I said: ‘Yes, I just had two ex-girlfriends on the show’.

“He said: ‘Oh, that must have been work’, and I said: ‘May I wish you a long and joyful reign, sir?’, and he said: ‘Thank you, that will be a lot of work too’.

“I love the Royal Family. I met the Queen about seven times. Charles is really, really friendly and more easygoing, possibly in a sense.
