The much loved actor appeared in the soap for years - and also had a role in Brookside...
Coronation Street and Brookside star Kenneth Cope has died, it was revealed today - with tributes paid to "a true gentleman of showbusiness". The actor played petty crook Jed Stone - known to many as 'Sunny Jim' - on three separate occasions, initially as Minnie Caldwell's lodger in the early 60s, again in 1966 and then once more on 2008.
The actor, who also had roles in Minder and A Touch of Frost, returned to Corrie as Jed Stone in 2008 for a storyline with ruthless developer Tony Gordon that spanned several months. It would be his final acting appearance, with the character's last plot involving a showdown with Jimmy after which he suffered a heart attack.
