END TO ON-SCREEN SMOOCHING

- LOVE, SIMON FROM HERE TO ETERNITY TWILIGHT GONE WITH THE WIND MOONLIGHTI­NG SPIDER-MAN NEIGHBOURS GAME OF THRONES

The way Simon puts his hand on Bram’s cheek right at the top of the wheel is just so romantic. The film only came out in 2018 and has quickly became one of the most memorable movie kisses ever.

Speaking of beach scenes, it’s more than 60 years since Burt Lancaster and Deborah Kerr first thrilled audiences with their risqué roll in the waves in the Oscar-winning From Here to Eternity. But it will never get old.

Speaking of off-camera affairs, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson’s off-screen relationsh­ip definitely made their on-screen chemistry sizzle in the teenage vampire saga.

Ah, Richard Gere and Julia Roberts. The ultimate Cinderella story – and don’t let the MeToo movement tell you any different…

Clarke Gable and Vivienne Leigh set the screen alight as Rhett Butler and Scarlett O’Hara in Gone With The Wind. Their passionate kiss silhouette­d against a window as Atlanta burned was unforgetta­ble.

The on-screen chemistry between Cybill Shepherd and Bruce Willis was smoking hot, even if they avoided one another off-camera. After years of willthey-won’t-they, their characters Maddie and David eventually got it on. Worth the wait.

The scene where Johnny Utah (Keanu Reeves) pulls Lori Petty’s character towards him in the water after surfing at sundown…

The upsidedown kiss in the pouring rain between Kirsten Dunst and Tobey Maguire pretty much ruined any future superhero movie. A bit of a cliche but too good.

The wedding of Scott (Jason Donovan) and Charlene (Kylie Minogue) pulled in 20 million viewers in 1988. Still not sure if it was the kiss or the song Suddenly by Angry Anderson that proved most memorable.

Brienne of Tarth and Jaime Lanister made us wait until episode four in season eight of Game of Thrones before they eventually locked lips. An unlikely yet romantic alliance.

Steve McDonald has been round the block more than most. He’s now married to Tracey and has a kid with Leanne but his biggest passion was two-time wife Karen (Suranne Jones) followed closely by ex-con Becky (Katherine Kelly).
