A waxwork of Coronation Street's Ken Barlow has been removed from display at Madame Tussauds after being attacked.
It used to sit in a mock-up of the Rovers Return pub opposite his on-off wife Deirdre.
But bosses at Tussauds in Blackpool took away their Ken Barlow figure following a number of attacks, 'inappropriate pictures' and complaints from customers about its presence.
Bill Roache, 81, the actor who has played Barlow in the ITV soap since 1960, is on bail after being charged with two counts of raping a 15-year-old girl in 1967.
He has pledged to fight the claims but ITV officials have suspended him from the show until any trial ends.
