This Morning viewers couldn't help but mention the same thing as Coronation Street legend William Roache appeared on the programme. The ITV daytime show returned to screens on Monday (September 12) in a special edition paying tribute to the Queen.
Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield fronted the two-hour show where they were joined by a number of guests as they discussed the Queen's death and memories of Britain's longest-reigning monarch.
Bill, who celebrated his 90th birthday earlier this year, appeared live in the ITV studio to share his own memories of Queen Elizabeth II who he was fortunate to meet on several occasions. The Ken Barlow actor was among one the veteran cast members who greeted the head of state when she visited in 1982 to open the show’s new set and more recently in 2021 as the soap celebrated its 60th year on screens.
