Article continues below Read all the latest spoilers Callum and Johnny awaited nervously as Jonno arrived at the flat. And, as he settled in with a four pack of beers, an awkward family reunion took place. Jonno told Callum that he was proud of him for his career achievements. While he didn’t exactly apologise for his past homophobia, Jonno did appear to be making a genuine effort. After learning about Ben and Lexi, Jonno shared that his health had taken a turn, and that he was no longer able to work. It was then that the penny dropped for Callum. Realising that his dad was after money, Callum refused to bail him out. As their argument turned nasty, Jonno collapsed with a heart attack. As Johnny called an ambulance, Callum rushed to fetch Anthony. Jonno was horrible to the last (Credit: BBC) Johnny and Callum’s affair continued as Jonno died With Jonno dying on the floor, he passed on one last message for his son. “Tell him I’m ashamed of him,” he gasped with his last breath. Callum arrived home (minus Anthony) as paramedics piled the dead body into the back of an ambulance. As if the Square didn’t have enough cover-ups on its hands, Johnny warned Callum to get lost before the police could arrive, fearing it wouldn’t look good for him to have met with the man he’d arrested only yesterday. Returning home, a bereft and guilty Callum reflected on the better times he’d had with Jonno. Seeing how upset Callum was, Johnny chose to lie about Jonno’s dying words – telling him he’d asked for Callum’s forgiveness, and said he loved him. An emotional Callum fell into Johnny’s arms, and another passionate embrace. Johnno Highway would be rolling in his not-yet-dug grave. Ballum fans too. Ravi’s bosses issued a threat (Credit: BBC) Ravi received a chilling threat in EastEnders tonight After sending Nugget and Avani packing to college, Ravi stripped off to play Naked Chef. He was left red-faced when Avani returned home unexpectedly, to find her dad topless and ready for some morning delight. Jack was testing out his newfound honest approach, and had told Denise about Ravi’s blackmail. For once, they were united, and she mooted a plan to be rid of her former lover, once and for all. Later, Priya emerged from the flat to find a for sale sign being installed outside. After reassuring her that everything was fine, Ravi confronted Jack and Denise over the house sale. Jack revealed that selling the flat was necessary if he wanted to raise the £100k. In The Vic, Ravi met with Priya and the kids to go public with their rekindled romance. Lying to the kids, he told them that Eve had gotten back control of their assets from Bernie, and he was planning on upsizing their living situation. Meanwhile, he reassured Priya that he was only getting what he was owed from Jack – and that they had nothing to worry about from his old friends. As it turned out, Ravi’s problems wouldn’t be so easily solved. Meeting with Okie outside, Ravi got an ominous threat from his higher ups, who hadn’t taken too kindly to his plan to leave the business. Pictures of Avani and Nugget, on the Square.
