After having a night of passion with Manpreet, Ross made it clear that it was just a one off and nothing else would happen in the future.

Manpreet took this badly (very badly) and then had a go at Ross over his treatment of her.

While you’d be forgiven for thinking that any chemistry between Ross and Manpreet was truly done and dusted, that might not be the case.

Rebecca Sarker has now revealed that there are more scenes to come between the pair, describing them as ‘sizzling.’ Yes, Manpreet, Ross and ‘sizzling’ are words we never thought would go together but here we are.

Speaking to the Mirror, Rebecca teased: “There’s flirtation there and chemistry. It’s a mismatch but sometimes that works. Opposites attract.”

She then added: “I suppose there’s certainly legs for Ross and Manpreet’s story. There is potential there. It’s sizzling. Let’s just say it is sizzling. I quite like them. What would their name be? RossPreet? ManRoss? Let’s go with ManRoss.”

Will we be shipping ManRoss anytime soon? Will they have a huge fanbase behind them in the months to come?
