[/align]SOAP queens Anthony Cotton and John Partridge have launched a full-on cat fight. Corrie star Anthony - who plays Sean Tully - has hit back at John after the EastEnders actor branded his character a "teatime gay".
Talking about his own character, John - who plays Albert Square's Christian Clarke - previously said: "What I didn't want as a stereotype was what I call a teatime gay, the Sean Tully type." The 38-year-old went on: "I've worked in theatre for 20 years and there are lots of queens in the West End that look and act like that."
And today, Anthony, 34, then reportedly hit back: "This is from a man who on the same day goes on Elaine Paige's show and reveals how he hoovers dressed in a catsuit." But he later attempted to play his recent comments down, writing on Twitter: "There is no war of words going on with me and Johnny Partridge."
