William Roache – 88
The powers that be gave the Guinness World Record for the longest-lasting character ever on TV to our very own William Roache for playing Ken Barlow on Coronation Street right from 1960 onwards. That was long before most TV viewers from today were even born.
William’s stay on this lengthy series has definitely done him good, seeing that his net worth stands at about €4 million as a result. Indeed, the dedicated hard work he’s put into his iconic character is worth every penny, and Roache never ceases to amaze us with his acting prowess -an absolutely distinguished master of his craft.
