All writing comes from the heart. Tonight's #EastEnders is extra personal. When I was a teen, there were no LGBT people on TV to help me coming out. Now I get to write the TV I never got to watch. Whether you're Bernie, Tina, Callum or Ben, if you're on that journey, Happy Pride.

30 minute klaxon - Enders tonight by me at 8.35. Ruby's just told Martin she wants a baby, Mick's just told Linda he's leaving, and Tina's just told Gray she knows he killed his wife... Picks up exactly where Saturday's ep finished.

Well aren't you lovely, Walford Web peeps? Thank you very much, I'm thrilled and flattered. And some best ep and best scene runners up in there too. You certainly know how to make a guy feel very loved.

@softballum I think love stories are complicated. Good, epic ones are always massively complicated. You could see on Friday how much they both love each other. Keep the faith.

Thirty minute klaxon - Enders again tonight, scripted by me. Kush has got secrets, Callum's got secrets, Mick's got secrets - somebody and their clothes might end up being thrown out on the street tonight... #justsaying

@saritazan1968 I think Ben is torn between wanting the love of two men - his dad, drawing him to darkness, and Callum, drawing him to light. Callum and Ben are a complex relationship between two damaged people. Can Ben come back from this? Will love win? Time will tell.

This. One of the things I love most about soap is it's here, then it's gone, because it's always moving. Then every now and then the right words and the right director with the right actors make something that lives with people a long time after. Thanks for the love today peeps.

2. Ian, Phil, Sharon, Bobby - there's so much still to play. We never do things for short term shock, always for the long term story. Trust me, no-one's more aware of legacy than we are (hence putting Sharon and Ian at the heart of last night, with Kathy across both.) 2/

I always think twitter's a bit like the pub. It's fab when you see your mates. It's great chatting with strangers, even when you disagree. Having a laugh, being made to think. But when it gets a bit shouty and people are in your face banging on about the same thing... block.

I love it when Enders viewers respond to a storyline and want to do something to make a difference. Think this is at least the third or fourth time Jenn and Erin have organised a fundraiser over the years - they're brilliant, so do give them some support if you can.

Thirty minute klaxon! Enders tonight by me, 8.05. Max is hoping to get back with Linda, Ash is hoping to get back with Iqra, Sharon seems to be hoping to get back with Phil... All that, and one of my favourite cliffs in a long time!
