That man is going to have a heart attack one day due to stress, and no doubt they will write about it!

Not sure what there is to discuss about this until we know whether the article refers to the actor William Roache or the character Ken Barlow?

Given some of the crackpot nonsense William Roache subscribes to, finding out he's homosexual would be at the mundane and boring end of the scale.

I wonder if the psychic Jack Russells took the story to the Daily Star?

No someone sent link to Jonathan Harvey on Twitter and his response was is that the daily star? C**ts. So obviously it is about William roache than ken.

I wonder what it will it will be then. It could damage the Bill's return depending on the publicity it causes.
Could backfire on Jonathan Harvey through if what it is turns out to be true and damaging.

There's not a lot in the Daily Star that you can believe, I think they usually manage to get the date right and then it's downhill from there.

The thing is that such inaccuracies are calculated to give a false impression while staying just within UK libel law. There's an art to getting away with getting the news so wrong.

Wow, so low to make this a front page story. It may have been funny if it weren't for everything else. It sounds like a throwaway one-liner in his return episode. That is not news.

One of the Stars journos, Richard Peppiat actually left in disgust as he couldn't stomach making lies up about Muslims, minorities etc. Their entire modus operandi is to make shit up to entice outraged people to buy their papers while their proprietor sits on his filthy lucre .

Since when has Adam been ken's son? And Tracy is technically his adopted daughter, so should really be referred to as his daughter.

So Tracy tries and fails to emulate one of Blanche's one liners about him being gay and a newspaper makes it a front page story?

Oh dear.

Sad thing is that in a few weeks, when Ken is gracing the cobbles once more, there will be at least one, probably more, comment on DS along the lines of, 'I heard Bill Roache is gay' and all the sheep who have seen neither the 'article' () or this thread, will pass that on to the next thread, etc etc like Chinese Bloody Whispers and suddenly it becomes DS perceived 'fact'.
