‘You know, if you’re upset with someone, tell them, and let them respond, hear each other out, apologise, and move on.
‘Like, it’s really, really not that deep. Alan and I got on so well. We were very very close in there.
‘It was just banter, day in, day out, so it felt quite normal for me to be like “you’ve upset me” because that’s what I would expect him to do to me.
‘And there was plenty of situations like that in there where people were honest about how they felt and we moved on. There was no drama, there was no agg.
‘It probably looks harsher on TV, but in real life it was like, it was over in a split second, and to me, that’s just life.’
After Alan stormed off to help Loose Women’s Jane Moore collect wood while Dean continued napping, Dean was quick to jump down his throat.
‘You don’t fancy it? No?’ the soap star asked, before traipsing off to help Jane himself after she confessed: ‘I can’t do it on my own’.
Dean then later joined them and told Alan ‘You can go back now’, before the actor explained: ‘I was trying to wake you up as soft as I could.’

‘It takes a couple of minutes for my contact lenses to get back working again, alright, so you don’t need to turn around to me and say “Do you not fancy it, Ok?” And then turn around and walk away.’
‘I’ve listened to you, Jane was halfway down here, that’s why I went’ Alan replied as the pair got into a heated back and forth.
