Kenneth Cope Dies: British Actor Who Starred In ‘Coronation Street’ & ‘Randall And Hopkirk’ Was 93
Kenneth Cope, the British actor who starred in ‘Coronation Street,’ has died at the age of 93.
British actor Kenneth Cope, a popular TV and film star in the 1960s and 70s thanks to leading appearances in Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased) and Coronation Street, has died. Cope’s former agent Sandra Chalmers, of The Artists Partnership, announced that he died at his home in the northern seaside town of Southport in Sefton, Liverpool, the area where he was born in 1931. The sixties proved to be a breakthrough decade for him with the double whammy of him playing in Coronation Street and, starting in 1962, he spent a year appearing with David Frost, Millicent Martin, Roy Kinnear, David Kernan, Willie Rushton, and Lance Percival on This Was The Week That Was, a seminal late-night satirical show that aimed its sharp wit at the establishment.
