Now there's nothing unusual about the folk of E20 gettin' it on, but when it's Denise Fox and Phil Mitchell, well, that changes things entirely.

Needless to say, the pair's liaison got Twitter talking, leading both 'Denise and Phil' and 'Phil and Denise' to trend on Twitter during the evening.

Some viewers were put off their dinner.
