Hey don,t knock him, he was once an Officer attatched to the Arab Legion When Glub Pasharan it, so he,s got guts to be with that mob, However I suppose its right that I should Mention that it was about the time they introduced Racing Camels to the Legion. One begins to wonder why most of them were female, and they needed to race, after these revelations. :-D :-D :-S

I think when Ken/William said that he had slept with a 1000 women, I think thats what he meant as in zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

He once lost a huge court case where he defended himself as he had been accused of being 'boring'. The case cost him thousands of pounds at the time....and he lost the case. He could have admitted he was boring...all the way to the bank but he chose to go to the courts and I believe he ended up nearly bankrupt. I think that is where some of his delusional ideas about himself may have started. Where was the 'sensational' revelations then.?

He once appeared on celebrity Stars in Their Eyes and was equally as boring and bordering embarrassing because of the lack of talent/personality.

But I guess it would be a boring world if everyone was the same......jl

I think it's a ploy, not the sex, but all the other stuff about the planet...I think he's been reading old scripts and is going to audition for the next series of Dr Who! Matt Smith gets zapped and the Dr regenerates as an old man...and then for the series after that he can start to get younger again...hopefully till we get back to David Tennant :))

When he said he had slept with 1000 women - the reply should have been 'name them'. Bet he would not have written down five - if that.

found it - now I know what you are talking about!!!!

bizarre TV interview.

The 79-year-old actor, who plays Ken Barlow, told a stunned chat show host all humans will soon communicate by telepathy.

He predicted a series of earthquakes, ­hurricanes, floods and tsunamis – but claimed that these disaster would be necessary to disperse “negative energy”.

And the star, who has been a regular in the Street since the first episode in 1960, said of his dead wife Sara: “I’m absolutely thrilled to bits for her that she’s gone home.”

What level-headed Ken would have made of it all is anyone’s guess as Roache spilled out his oddest lines ever during his appearance Sky TV’s The Moore Show.

He told host Kevin Moore during the interview: “The Earth is a living being with consciousness and it has an understanding.

“And just like we can become enlightened and raise our vibrational level into a higher spiritual level, the Earth can also do the same and this is what is happening.”

Britain’s longest serving TV actor even went on to claim there was some truth in the latest doomsday date for the end of the world in a year’s time.

“This is what all the prophecies about 2012 are.

“Unfortunately there are some cleansings that will have to take place where negative energy has to be discharged and these will be in the form of earthquakes, hurricanes, floods and tsunamis,” said Roache.

“The doom and gloom, as they are saying, is that December 21st, 2012, is the end of the Earth. It isn’t, but it’s the change and the end of a lot of things as we know them.”

After 2012, according to Roache, everything will become as clear as a pint of Rovers bitter. And in a speech that would have surely seen heads being scratched at the famous bar, he said: “We’ll move into the golden age which will be a wonderful age where we’ll all love.

“We’ll communicate telepathically, we’ll all be aware of our spiritual selves, and it will be a beautiful place to be.

“It’s been happening really ever since day one but it’s been speeding up recently because it’s reaching its point when the actual ascension of the Earth will take place next year.

“A lot of people who are sensitive will be aware of it whereas some people will just be aware of all the awful things that are going on – but we need to look at all the bad things as a glorious process of birth. We’re going to be moving into this wonderful period where people will be more loving and more caring.”

Roache revealed his struggle to find happiness early on in his Coronation Street career was solved by a homeopathic doctor who was able to communicate with him while he slept.

“That guy was able to appear on the astral plane, and come into a dream and actually speak to me that way,” he said. “Nowadays spiritual things are more accepted and it’s going to keep getting bigger. But when I started, these things were very unusual and you had to be careful who you talked to. People would get hostile.”

Roache told Moore spiritualism helped him deal with the death of his 18-month-old daughter Edwina in 1983.

“I’ve had messages from Edwina saying her role in the spiritual realms is helping young babies who have gone over and are crying for their mummies,” said Roache.

“She is able to help children in the spirit realm.” He claimed it also helped him come to terms with the loss of his wife Sara, 58, in 2009. “I can celebrate and rejoice for Sara,” he said. “I am absolutely thrilled to bits for her that’s she’s gone home. I don’t worry about Sara as I know I will join her eventually.”

The full interview is on The Moore Show this Friday, 6pm on Sky Showcase.
