    Coronation Street star Bill Roache has shared his theories about the apparent Mayan prediction that the world will end in 2012.

    The actor, who plays Ken Barlow on the ITV soap, prophesied that the apocalypse will not occur this December as some believe, but instead a "golden age" for humanity will be ushered in.

    "The world will not end in 2012. But it will change dramatically," he warned Silent Voices, a spiritual, paranormal and metaphysical magazine.

    "It is moving to a higher vibration and all who are open, ready and willing can move with her."

    He continued: "This will be the golden age, when a majority will know that they are love and that they are spiritual beings.

    "The earth will continue to cleanse itself while material and negative things will collapse and cease to be."

    However, Roache rejected suggestions that his comments were rooted in any form of religion or belief system.

    "I am not now, nor have I ever been a spiritualist," he said. "Understand we are all pure love, made in love, living in love. It is urgent to get this over. Time is running out."

    Roache previously caused a stir when talking to the media by claiming that he had slept with about 1,000 women.

    Coronation Street star Michelle Keegan has claimed that her success is down to luck.

    The 25-year-old actress, who plays Tina McIntyre on the ITV soap, said that she couldn't believe how far she had come in a relatively short amount of time.

    Speaking on today's (September 6) edition of Lorraine, Keegan recalled: "I always wanted to be an actress but I thought you had to start at a young age and I didn't know how.

    "I started acting at 19, and was just really lucky. It was a case of right place, right time."

    Keegan went on to admit that she continues to gets "starstruck" by some of her Coronation Street co-stars.

    'I'm still starstruck by most of them," she said. "It's really weird because I grew up watching Corrie and I still have to pinch myself that I'm actually still there."

    Keegan's character is currently at the centre of a controversial surrogacy storyline.

    The actress herself was recently reported to be dating rugby star Mark Flanagan following her break-up with The Wanted's Max George.

    Former Coronation Street star Andrew Lancel has signed up to play Beatles manager Brian Epstein in a forthcoming Liverpool stage production.

    The actor will take on the title role in the world premiere run of Epstein: The Man Who Made The Beatles, which is launching to coincide with the legendary band's 50th anniversary year.


    Running from November 15 to December 1, The Man Who Made The Beatles will be the first major production at Liverpool's newly-refurbished Epstein Theatre, named after Brian.

    Lancel commented: "As a Beatles fan, it's a daunting but hugely exciting challenge to be playing Brian Epstein, and I was very honoured to be asked.

    "This is the first play I've accepted in 10 years which says a lot - it's a powerful and moving piece, but also an entertaining insight into one of our own and what makes him tick."

    Director and co-creator Jen Heyes added: "I am so pleased that Andrew Lancel has accepted the part of Brian Epstein.

    "The casting process was a long and considered one as befits this iconic role, and I can think of no-one better to play Brian than Andrew - a professional Liverpool actor who has become a household name, with a fantastic and varied body of work under his belt.

    "We had a responsibility to find the right actor for this role, and I am extremely excited to have Andrew on board. I know he will do Brian justice, and he even has a resemblance to him which is an added bonus."

    The two-hander multi-media play will chart the adult life and career of Epstein, from his drama school days to managing the world's biggest pop group. The entrepreneur died from an accidental overdose in 1967 at the age of 32.

    Lancel finished filming his role as Coronation Street villain Frank Foster earlier this year. The actor is also well-known for his part as DI Neil Manson on The Bill.
