Synopsis:

William Roache has been an actor on Britain's best-loved soap opera, Coronation Street, for over 50 years – making him the world's longest-serving soap star.

As a young actor William auditioned for a TV drama that was likely to be running for only a few weeks. Now, almost 50 years later, he is the only original cast member and the soap's success has established him as a household name.

Over the course of that time, William's character Ken Barlow has been married four times, twice to Deirdre, and had a series of tumultuous affairs. This gripping autobiography will appeal to fans of 'The Street' and is an exciting insight into the spiritual influences that have shaped this much-loved actor. It will make inspiring reading for anyone interested in personal development.
