Coronation Street Paul star's three-word question to former co-star after 'send-off' update

Coronation Street star Peter Ash was quick to respond as one of his former co-stars gave fans a look at his character's 'send-off'. Viewers of the ITV soap were left in tears earlier this month when Paul Foreman tragically died.

Taking to Instagram, Jane Hazlegrove has shared a poster for Paul's
