Coronation Street star William Roache MBE, aka Ken Barlow, will be a VIP guest on a Fred. Olsen cruise in June.

The legendary Corrie actor, who has played Ken ever since the soap first aired in 1960, will be joining a Braemar 14-night Captivating Cities of Iberia cruise M1113, departing from Dover on June 19.

During the cruise, he will give a special talk and hold a Q&A session, which guests on board are invited to attend at no extra charge.
 
Fred. Olsen marketing director Nigel Lingard said: “As Ken Barlow, William has become something of a national treasure, and there will be numerous fans on this cruise who will be thrilled to meet their favourite soap star, and gain an insight into his varied and fascinating career.”
