Bill Ward: I feel sorry for Charlie

Actor sympathises with his love-rat character

He may be one of the most hated men in Britain but fictional character Charlie Stubbs has one fan - the actor who plays him.

Bill Ward, who joined Coronation Street in 2003, admits that he has grown fond of his love-rat character.

'I feel sorry for him and I've always felt sorry for him because no one ever sees his side of the story,' the 39-year-old tells the Daily Express

'He's not an out-and-out monster, he has a set of morals, they're just skew-whiff to the rest of us.

'I'm quite attached to Charlie and I'm going to miss him terribly, although I'm probably the only person in Britain who is!'
