Tanya and Jack share a kiss
Published Sunday, May 18 2008, 09:46 BST | By Kris Green | 15 comments
Jack and Tanya's feelings for each other reach boiling point in a couple of weeks in EastEnders as they share a kiss which sort of signals the start of a somewhat sordid affair.
However, things don't quite run as smoothly as Jack had hoped when Tanya suddenly sees red and throws him out.
Will Jack and Tanya finally get steamy? Or will either of their consciences be pricked by the thought of Max?

These scenes are due to air on Thursday, May 29 on BBC One at 7.30pm.

Hannah from Kent is so right. Jack should be with Ronnie. And Tanya is such a slut if she thinks she can kiss her brother-in-law in the same house as her husband's children. If they wanted to get together they should have realised 15 years ago!

Jack and Ronnie are totally made for one another, the make such a cute couple - Tanya should put her kids first, what would they call Jack dad? And Max should be back soon...

Erm it takes two, and Jack isn't exactly saying 'no' is he? Knew Tanya would get the blame! The woman always does! And Max had an affair so what are you on about Tanya can't keep a man? Jack's the one doing the chasing, not Tanya!

Tanya should be with Max. Jack should be with Ronnie. Jack and Tanya together is totally wrong. She had 3 kids to think about.. how would they feel if she hooked up with their Uncle?! I can almost see why EE are doing this - for the brotherly feud - but it better not be serious and Jack really needs to come to his senses!

Nooooooo! It should be Ronnie and Jack, they are perfect for each other. Just because Tanya can't keep a man of her own doesn't mean she should get her filthy hands on Jack. Jack and Ronnie forever.

I shouldn't be surprised if Tanya will be branded a bitch/slut for having an affair with someone else's boyfriend. And will she think about the effect it will have on Abi and Lauren?

I think they have had an affair before and Lauren is not Max's child, she is Jack and Tanya's secret love child...

Wow! See I don't mind who Jack gets with, he is very sweet with Tanya, and Tanya is lovely, he is good with the kids as well. And Tanya wont bring Jack down! They do make a nice couple, but I want Tanya to get back with Max.

Omg!! this story line does my head in. Jack should be with Ronnie and that's final. Ronnie and Jack are made for each other - Tanya has got 3 kids to think about and she will just be bringing jack down with her moaning and groaning and what will Max think!!

Urgh. That's all I can say. Tanya should think of her kids. They have been through enough already. Max would definitely use it against her. Ronnie and Jack are a match made in heaven anyway.

I do love both of them, really, but I'm not in fond of their "special relationship"... I admit it can be interesting to see how Max will react when he knows his brother tried it on his wife. Another great clash between the Branning brothers is lurking... But the thing I'm sure of is that Tanya & Jack will never ever get more steamy than giving a kiss to the other, it's only a kind of game they're doing...
