Re: Corrie's Cadbury Ads
When Bill Roache lived near Haslingden he always had a big poster on his fence at election times, saying Vote Conservative. A bit ironic as Red Ken, the part he's played for forty seven years, is supposed to be the original kitchen sink socialist.
Incidentally, he's only the second longest serving actor in the same role in the world. That honour goes to someone in the U.S. called Don Hastings, who has been in As the World Turns since October 1960, two months before Corrie first went to air.
