'Corrie' star Roache admits to bed-hopping past

Bill Roache has confessed to bedding 1,000 women, including a 'Coronation Street' co-star.

The 79-year-old actor – who plays straight-laced Ken Barlow in the ITV1 soap – explained he "deeply" regrets his womanising ways, which saw him regularly cheat on his first wife Anna Cropper because he had no "control" over his sex drive.
