EastEnders' Ben Mitchell will open up to Callum Highway as they start to grow closer next week.

Ben (Max Bowden) has been keeping a close eye on Callum in recent weeks, having witnessed him deliberately hurting himself to make his injury worse.

As Callum (Tony Clay) celebrates his new home with Whitney Dean, he reaches out to his brother Stuart and invites him to a housewarming party.

As the party gets under way, things quickly get out of hand when a drunken Ben arrives at Callum and Whitney's – the same flat that his late boyfriend Paul used to live in.

Haunted by past memories, a struggling Ben soon takes himself off to Paul's old bedroom but is tracked down by Callum, who was unaware of the connection.

To Callum's surprise, Ben starts to open up to him about his past but it's a different story by the time he has sobered up the next day.

Although Ben makes a point of thanking Callum for his support, he snaps when Callum brings up Paul – and soon storms off. Does Ben regret showing Callum his more vulnerable side?

EastEnders airs these scenes on Tuesday, June 4 and Thursday, June 6 at 7.30pm on BBC One.
