PAUL Foreman will get two separate funerals as Billy and Bernie are going to clash in Coronation Street.
Fans were previously devastated by Paul’s (Peter Ash) death when he succumbed to his battle with Motor neurone disease.
However, Billy (Daniel Brocklebank) and his mother-in-law Bernie (Jane Hazlegrove) are set to butt heads over the arrangements for Paul’s funeral.
The duo will get sidetracked as a huge Coronation Street villain is set to make a comeback on the cobbles.
Billy will suggest to Bernie that they go and choose flowers together as no arrangements are put in place.
However, their different opinions will result in yet another argument for the already feuding pair.
Bernie tells Dev (Jimmi Harkishin) that she might not be able to give Paul the funeral she would have liked.
However, she will vow to find a fitting place to bury his ashes.
But on what would have been their first wedding anniversary, an emotional Billy prepares for the service.
But when he gets to the church, he will be shocked and horrified as Gemma (Dolly-Rose Campbell) and Paul’s father Denny (Danny Cunningham) has returned.
The estranged partner of Bernie will be found skulking in the shadows.
Billy will not want any trouble whatsoever, so he will warn his father-in-law to behave and stay out of sight.
Todd, Summer, Kit, David, Chesney and Dee-Dee will carry Paul's coffin down the aisle as Bernie and Gemma are set to follow behind.
Billy will set forward to conduct the service for his late lover, but will everything go to plan?
Not satisfied with the church service, a memorial rave will be held as bunting and glow sticks are used to decorate the street.
Bernie will ask Todd to bring his ashes so she can make sure he has the best position on the dance floor.
