Jane Collins, EastEnders’ stoic butterer of bread rolls, is set to have her Phil of the Mitchell brothers. Just a few short weeks ago, Jane was whipping off her blouse and pulling Grant into a half-nelson at every opportunity - but now the cockney caff queen is set to get up close and personal with Phil in a top-secret storyline.

On-set insiders say the pair have been busy shooting scenes together, although BBC bosses are trying to keep the details hush-hush. A mole told the Daily Star: "An affair may just be too predictable. Jane and Phil may be growing closer for other, more important reasons."

So, the big question is, will Jane abandon her J-cloths and settle for a life polishing Phil’s head? Or will Ian uncover her deceit and force her to seek fulfilment in a new range of microwaveable saveloys? Ooh, we can hardly stand the suspense.
