In upcoming scenes in Coronation Street, Paul Foreman (Peter Ash) is set to descend back into criminality and put himself in danger after a confrontation with Damon Hay (Ciarán Griffiths).
Paul is grappling with his Motor Neurone Disease (MND) diagnosis, with him concerned about money after Trish (Steph Parry), a woman he met with whose husband has MND, explained how life will become more expensive as he becomes more disabled.
When Billy Mayhew (Daniel Brocklebank) tries to make plans with Paul, Paul lies and makes out he’s already got plans with Dee-Dee Bailey (Channique Sterling-Brown).
However, Billy quizzes Dee-Dee about her plans with Paul, and luckily for Paul, Dee-Dee thinks on her feet and covers for him, but she becomes suspicious and decides to secretly follow Paul to find out what he’s up to.
He leads her to Freshco’s car park where she finds him about to steal a car. Dee-Dee threatens to call the police but Paul is adamant that he needs the money and putting the car into gear, roars off.

Later, Paul corners Damon in the bistro office and demands £25k or he’ll grass him up for his criminal activities, but he gets more than he bargains for following the confrontation.
Damon stands his ground and later double-crosses Paul by calling his criminal contacts, urging them to shut down Paul’s attempt at blackmail. How much danger is Paul in?
