During Tuesday’s episode, the fivesome were unaware that DI Thompson and Ben’s boyfriend Callum Highway had bugged the Arches, listening in on their plan.

While things went from bad to worse when Ian Beale tipped off the police to which they linked the two incidents together and headed to the insurance company.

During the robbery, Kush got the code on the gate mixed up just as the police were nearing the premises. 

After eventually opening the car park gates, Ben was able to speed off in his stolen motor while Phil and Kush were still left.

Kush was unable to start his stolen car with Phil and Kat pleading with him to escape in their car, which also had Shirley.

Yet the character refused to get in and insisted he would speed off in his vehicle, with Phil quickly escaping with Kat and Shirley.
