Coronation Street star Channique Sterling-Brown has revealed her link to the soap's latest newcomer after fans declared him the 'best part' of the episode. During Monday night's trip to the cobbles (July 3), viewers saw a chilli eating competition take place at the Bistro.
It was an idea from Bernie Winter and Gemma Brown in a bid to raise funds for the equipment Paul Foreman will need as his Motor Neurone Disease progresses. Dev Alahan, Chesney Brown and Shona Platt all took on the eating challenge while Gemma reminded everyone to give generously.
At the end of the night, Bernie counted the money raised and handed Paul £800 which left him touched by the generosity of his friends and neighbours. But once back at the flat, Bernie and Paul's partner Billy Mayhew argued over religion versus crystals as while Billy suggested Paul be baptised, Bernie has been keen to help her son with her alternative methods.
