I love Max's delivery of this scene. Both him and Tony are wonderful but Max has got a really cool, off beat style that you really wouldn't expect but that works so well. Every line is delivered in such a very unique and different way.
No, I love him now. I think now Callum's on the scene and bringing out his vulnerable side again, he's becoming much more like the Ben we knew and loved. When he first came back on the square with a new head and his daughter in toe it was very weird, but Max is really finding his feet now. And the Ben/Callum dynamic is fire.
@@ashleycrystal9719 I think it was a mixture of turned on and being overly dramatic. lol He was excited he figured out in that moment that he was hiding in the closet.
Bill Worboyes least I’m man enough to show who I am on my CZcams picture and at least am not childish like you are. Besides stop hiding behind a screen you mug 😅🤣
Grovesy The photographer ignore negative energy. Everyone has their own opinion. I think the character is good and I’m glad they didn’t give him glasses.
Jordan Brown yeah I ain’t fussed just when people try to humiliate me I won’t let it happen don’t get me wrong I like past Ben too but this new actor is something else
Oh my lord!!!!!! I don’t even watch EastEnders but these two are off the charts amazing. Their chemistry is one of the best I’ve seen on TV and this is really them not doing anything yet. Where is this storyline going to take these guys because I’m excited to advocate and support another ICONIC LGBT+ couple. Well done EastEnders and well done fellas for some Stella performances! ❤️🧡💛💚💜🖤🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
Oh I hope not, I kinda want their relationship to be accepted and they will live happily ever after. I mean, it’s not going to happen but a girl can dream 😍😍
Yeah, I’ve watched that. I hear that Callum’s dad is making a debut and I know they both share the fact that their dads are deadbeats. Maybe, they will connect over that. Again I’m hoping here 😊😊
@@danniimayyy9607 Haha. Cheers, mate, but EE is pretty predictable 90% of the time. All the little looks & bringing the pair together more & more, there was no other logically reason I could think of that they were building to besides a gay storyline.
I always watch this scene over and over again just see Ben find someone just like how he was and he had with paul before his death, god those two make great lovers
@@ambermaverickpaul5769 dont think itll ever happen. Keanus actor seems uncomfortable with gays. He was recently apologising for older homophobic tweets. Its pretty set hes straight :(( i did think theydve been a good match back in the day but Callum is way sweeter and more caring. Imagine Beanu when he has a baby with your sister and possibly your step mother!
The funny thing is that if Halfway is gay, then its kind of bad karma payback for Whitney. Lets not forget that weird obsessive crush she had on gay Johnny Carter several years back. Now she has a maybe gay boyfriend....
Disagree Ben thought he was attractive the moment they met. Then he was intruiged by him and even said he was the full package. He probably will try to use him, its in his nature to push people away. But he deffo fancies the pants off him now, hes just in denial
Oh come on I swear Whitney is the Gail platt of EastEnders all get love ends is disaster I thought her and cal would be good together now this lol what's this
@@theeastendboy Just wanted to let you know that you arr brill for Thinking of so many eastenders best moments For me to watch when I'm feeling down ! 💜
That’s one hot gay couple coming together on eastenders . Does anyone else agree that this new Ben has so much more edge and actual sex appeal mainly because of his voice and how he is then the other bens. This I hope is gunna be one hell of a story hopefully deep and also hopefully not a short affair
@@stevedavidson5038 Max Bowden is an outstanding actor (even though I personally prefer Harry Reid and still unhappy about the recast) but he's better off playing another EE character because the character he's playing is just not Ben. Ben would never be this cruel, manipulative and evil. Ben wasn't really a saint (RIP Hev) but he was always kind-hearted!
Chloe Amber not perfect though, are they? Callum has never been comfortable getting physical with her. In fact, he’s rarely comfortable fullstop. Now we know why. Whit being saddled with someone who can never love her properly would be worse than him breaking up with her.
"What do you mean you've "sorted it"?" Clearly Callum has not spent enough time in Walford.. I find it amusing how Ben toys with Callum like he's playing with his food, but I don't like them as a future romantic couple. Personally I see this Ben as too twisted to make a real go of it with any bloke let alone an ex-soldier (who seems to have PTSD?). Ben really needs to be with a guy who is calm, self-possessed & independent, relatively law-abiding and stable like Paul & Johnny were.
Callum is that normally. He will be the stability in Bens life because hes so normal and good and sweet. The actor said Callum would be home for Ben which is true. I think they pair well in an opposites way. Callum also needs someone like Ben who is so confident and carefree because he has such low self confidence
You never hit a deaf person. This was a low blow for Callum what if the punch had affected Ben’s hearing or if his hearing aid fell out from the punch? It doesn’t count as domestic violence though since they’re not together yet.
I'm only here to see this scene again. I've heard of gaydar, but I'm lost to know how Ben sensed Halfway was queer (his word). Perhaps, he already strongly suspected? Doesn't seem very convincing to me, but it'll work with the gay audience who love the idea of supposedly straight guys being secretly gay.
This Ben...is so bad...like he spends a minute moaning and sniffing. And that scene in the cafe; someone tell him he’s not playing a cartoon gangster already.
"I smell queer" and with one sentence Ben rises to instant I.C.O.N. status.
literally said the exact same thing lol
This new ben is hilarious
“I smell queer” is the best line of the week 🤣
Best line ever
Absolutely best line!
Sam Morison
No, the "you like boys, you like girls I guess that's why they call u halfway" was the best line
I love Max's delivery of this scene. Both him and Tony are wonderful but Max has got a really cool, off beat style that you really wouldn't expect but that works so well. Every line is delivered in such a very unique and different way.
Ben: Wanna kiss it better
Nobody:
Me: YESSSSSSSSSS
The Kendall show 😂
This new Ben is so funny
Am I the only one who is starting like this new Ben
No, I love him now. I think now Callum's on the scene and bringing out his vulnerable side again, he's becoming much more like the Ben we knew and loved.

I always love how Ben brings some humour into every scene he's in it's funny to watch😂😂😂
"ow" sorry i died 😂😂😂
I wasn’t expecting this!! All of a sudden, I like the new Ben.
This was perfect from the look down to Ben's lips to the charged look in Ben's eyes that was wonder to lust.
What was Ben doing at 1.08 to 1.28? Having an orgasm?

Ben punched twice in 2 weeks, he always was on the receiving end lol.
SilentKiller55 oh I know, he’s got one of those faces you want to punch though
TheEastEndBoy even though the faces keep changing lol
His the new Max Branning lmao
SilentKiller55 czcams.com/video/ot954_7zxH8/video.html
@@danniimayyy9607 A lot better than Max Branning - he is just played out now repeating the same old poor Max/pissed Max scenes
I don’t understand why everybody hates the new Ben. Max Bowden’s portrayal gives the character a shot of octane that hadn’t been there before lol
Even though Ben got the nose punched out of him, why do i feel Ben came out the better in this clip.
THE MF MAN He definatly did. Hes found someone who he can mess around with and cause trouble for just to excite himself.
Am I the only one that found this scene hot? Haha
lynsey mclaughlin no
Smoking hot
So much chemistry
lynsey mclaughlin I fully thought they were gonna kiss
🤮
ben is the craziest
I smell quuuueeeeeerrrr... Yyyyaaaaa lol. Best line ever in eastender or in any UK or world soap lol
I knew it 😂 I predict they will be together at the end of this year
U were absolutely right about that
Ben doesn’t even care he’s hurt he’s used to it 😂
Yeah exactly
So much sexual tension in this scene i think they will sleep together soon
What a guess lmao 😂 they’re engaged
He's called halfway because he is halfway gay
XxITzAshton XD I died when Ben said that to him 😂
This was ICONIC
At one point I thought they were gonna kiss

Gaia Girl they’ve already had sex in the park so I think Callum is trying to forget it happened

Two years later and they’ve come such a long way!
Ouch that punch really does hurt especially Callum (halfway) Ben in the nose.

OMG! Oh yeah, I didn’t even noticed that till now.💙👨❤️👨💙
Poor Whitney, the bride to be but never the bride. Max brought a whole new personality to Ben with his one liners and innuendos.

Almost as bad as Arsenal's luck in European Finals. 😁😂😂
@@1977Suspiria unfortunately for me, I can't even argue with that statement lol
Whitney had more men than I've had hot dinners
Dominic Wileman she didn’t sleep with Mick she kissed him?
So Callum isn’t allowed to be bisexual? God forbid a man be in a long term relationship with a woman whilst being attracted to men too

Ben is just like his father very controlling
Why are people commenting on this video about Callum’s sexuality? What’s this clip got anything to do with his sexuality?
Joe and Dianne fan “I smell a queer” and Callum literally staring at bens lips. And Ben going on about halfway liking men and girls
Because Callum is clearly sexually attracted to Ben.

He didnt sense he was gay , Callum was staring at his lips and looking into his eyes for to long. It became intimate.
Thanks, I never saw it like that. I'm still unsure why an angry guy (even a closeted one) would so suddenly get turned by the person he's raging at.
@@secretsymphony try not to read too deeply into it, its a soap! It wouldnt happen like that in real life.
