Coronation Street actor Peter Ash is set to be at the centre of a motor neurone disease (MND) storyline and has shared his determination to “get it right”
In a first for Corrie, much-loved character Paul Foreman (played by Peter) will be diagnosed with the terminal life-shortening illness and the storyline will follow the progression of the disease.
Following weeks of speculation about what is causing the character’s clumsiness, Friday’s episode will see the builder referred to a specialist, before being given a diagnosis of MND in April.
