Remember These British Soap Opera Stars? See What They Are Up To Now
Bruce Jones – Les Battersby, Coronation Street
Bruce Jones’s decade-long stint on the long-running soap opera Coronation Street as the loudmouth Les Battersby-Brown is not the most notable thing about his life. Not by far. You see, even before he graced our TV screens in the late ‘90s, he had a run-in with the law.
As a young man in the ‘70s, he stumbled upon the lifeless body of one of the notorious Yorkshire Ripper’s victims. This led to him being suspected of being the actual serial killer. He retold the story in Netflix’s 2020 mini-series, The Ripper. Of course, those suspicions proved false upon the arrest and confession of Peter Sutcliffe.
