Coronation Street viewers were left devastated as Paul Foreman's motor neurone disease (MND) storyline continued.
Paul was told by a doctor he could have the condition after he experienced the on-set symptoms, but needed tests before receiving an official diagnosis. She warned those with MND typically live for three years after diagnosis.
Soap bosses have already confirmed Paul and his partner Billy Matthew, played by Daniel Brocklebank, will be at the centre of an MND storyline.
