Emotional scenes on Corrie as Paul loses long battle with MND

- OLIVIA WHEELER

CORONATION Street's Paul Foreman, played by Peter Ash, succumbs to his motor neurone disease in tear-jerking scenes on the ITV soap.

Viewers will also see the heartbreak of Paul's on-screen husband Billy Mayhew, played by Daniel Brocklebank, as he gazes at his partner's empty wheelchair.

Paul was diagnosed with the degenerative condition last year, but initially hid his diagnosis from those close to him, including Billy.
