Sadly we've lost another tv and film great. Kenneth Cope has died at the age of 93. And here we have an interview he did with Ashley a few years ago. Much of this has never been broadcast before.
Ken talks about being one of the early stars of Coronation Street. working with David Frost on That Was the Week That Was, his time in the Carry Ons, Randall and Hopkirk Deceased and his huge career in British film and TV.
Ashley says: 'Kenneth Cope was prolific. A huge talent. Never thought of himself as a star but he was quite simply one of the best. I loved chatting to Ken. Hope you enjoy!'
RIP Kenneth Cope 1931-1924.
