Tonight’s episode of EastEnders (Thursday, September 11) saw the vile Jonno Highway drop dead, leaving son Callum shocked. Jonno’s sudden departure came as relations between father and son hit an all-time low, and Jonno suffered a heart attack.
Things had gotten off to a surprisingly amicable start, but it wasn’t long before Jonno let his true colours show again. Realising that Jonno wanted money, Callum ordered his father to leave.
In response, Jonno grew angry and emotional… and suddenly collapsed to the floor.

Jonno dropped dead in EastEnders tonight
Callum ran to fetch Anthony as his father collapsed to the floor. Left at Jonno’s side, Johnny called an ambulance. Meanwhile, Jonno was vile to the last – and used his last breath to tell Johnny how disappointed he was in his son.
By the time Callum returned, Jonno had died. Seeing how upset Callum was, Johnny lied, telling him that Jonno had asked for Callum’s forgiveness, and professed his love.
Callum and Johnny then then fell into an embrace, kissing passionately on the exact spot where homophobic abuser Jonno had died only hours before.
