This fortnight, unlikely couple Juley Smith and Ruby Allen continue to defy the thunderous disapproval of her father, Johnny, when they spend the night together. But Ruby's far from prepared for what the morning after brins...
"Juley does realise how nervous Ruby is, and he's very sensitive to that," explains Joseph Kpobie, who plays him.
"The attraction between them is very strong, and they want to be together. The next day, it all starts unravelling, though, and viewers will begin to realise why Juley feels so huilt about it all. He isn't in this relationship with a clear conscience."
While a loved-up Ruby's devstaed that her boyfriend suddenly behaves as if he couldn't care less about her, Juley's trying desperately to distance himslef from the pact he made with Phil Mitchell - to date Ruby with the intention of antagonising Johnny as much as he can
"In the beginning, Juley saw phil as a man who could achieve things, and get one up on Johnny," sighs Joseph. "He didn't intend to use Ruby, and he was only thinking aout what it could lead to in the future for him. He saw himself as Phil's sly man in the square."
What Juley hadn't banked on, however, was that he would genuinely fall for Ruby...
"He's absolutely gutted. He thought that it would be a few quick dates before he bought himself a new bling watch with the profits," smiles Joseph. "Now that's it's come to the crunch point, and he's found himself with real feelings for the sweet, lovely girl.
"Even though Juley doesn't want to do it any more, Phil won't stop bullying him into it" adds Joseph. " And an over-protective Johnny is also bullying him - - so Juley has the two worst men in Walford after him. It's all going to be very sinister."
