Coronation Street star Daniel Brocklebank has got fans feeling emotional again as he was seen alongside his co-star. The actor took to Instagram with a snap of himself and Peter Ash taken before they filmed their recently-aired scenes which left viewers of the ITV soap 'bawling'.
The picture showed Dan and Peter, known for playing Billy Mayhew and Paul Foreman, smiling for the camera by a lake as they filmed on location away from the Salford-based set. "Before we went skinny dipping…," Dan captioned the post with a red love heart.
As viewers will have seen during Monday's trip to Weatherfield (August 28), the couple faced the progression of Paul's Motor Neurone Disease. During the episode, Paul headed to see his friend, Shelley, whom he met at an MND support group.

But as he told her how he was struggling with his family making decisions for him and not letting him enjoy the time he has left without thinking about his deterioration, Shelley shared some home truths.
He then headed home to Billy and told him that he wanted them to spend time together and when Billy suggested some lunch, Paul told him he wanted more of an adventure. The pair were then seen at an idyllic lake where Paul left Billy stunned when he asked him to strip off to do some skinny dipping.
While Billy was reluctant, Paul gave his best puppy dog eyes and told him it was on his bucket list and it wasn't long before the archdeacon caved and the pair stripped off. They were then seen basking in the water as Billy held Paul in his arms and they took in the precious moment together.
