With Felix having left both Walford and Johnny in the dust, Callum tried to reassure Lexi that his marriage to Ben was as strong as ever. Catching up with Johnny later, the pair confirmed that they should stay just good friends, and try to forget all about the kiss.

However, things took a turn with the news that Lexi was headed to a sleepover… leaving Callum at a loose end. As he and Johnny discussed getting a drink, things took an altogether steamier turn.

Giving into temptation, they kissed passionately. But what’s next for Johnny and Callum?
