Ryan Pope, who is perhaps best known for playing Paul on sitcom Ideal, has appeared in a number of films including 1998’s Velvet Goldmine, opposite Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Iwan McGregor. The star, who has also starred in programmes including Casualty and Coronation Street, is said to be joining Hollyoaks as an old foe of Jack Osborne’s (Jimmy McKenna).

Coronation Street viewers were left 'heartbroken' on Tuesday when Paul Winter finally told his family he has been diagnosed with motor neurone disease. Paul made the tearful confession at his twin sister Gemma's wedding to Chesney Brown after he broke down while giving a speech. In the emotional scenes, Paul (Peter Ash) told Gemma (Dolly-Rose Campbell) and their mother Bernie (Jane Hazlegrove) that he has just three years left to live.

During Monday's episode of Coronation Street, Gemma Winter lit up the aisle as she married sweetheart Chesney Brown, but the day was overshadowed by some tragic news and an emotional ending.The bride's twin brother Paul Foreman, played by Peter Ash, is dying from motor neurone disease (MND) and previously attempted to start an argument with Gemma in a bid to avoid the wedding and hide his condition. Viewers tuned in to watch the wedding episode, which saw Paul adamant at the start that he couldn't make his sister's wedding, despite being the one to walk her down the aisle.

She was never going to anything but extra on her wedding day and Gemma Winter was a tangerine dream as she walked down the aisle in a giant light-up gown. Gemma met her groom Chesney Brown in a twinkling orange dress hailed as the 'best wedding dress ever.'
