BBC EastEnders' Max Branning set for unexpected return after mention on soap

EastEnders fans are abuzz with speculation that Max Branning might make a dramatic comeback to Walford, nearly four years after his poignant departure.

In the latest episode from Wednesday (August 28), Albert Square was reeling from the aftermath of the disaster at Peggy's, which saw Amy Mitchell (played by Ellie Dadd) fighting for her life following a cardiac arrest and Lauren Branning (portrayed by Jacqueline Jossa) sustaining serious injuries.

Amidst the turmoil, Kathy Beale (Gillian Taylforth) turned her cafe into a refuge for those affected and the emergency services, with Bernie Taylor (Clair Norris) pitching in to help. However, their conversation quickly shifted to the upcoming murder trial of Keanu Taylor, stirring up emotions.

Bernie expressed her desperation for justice for her late brother, casting suspicion on Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean) despite Dean Wicks (Matt Di Angelo) being the one facing charges.

"Sharon has been with Phil", Bernie said: "Yeah she has been around bad things, bad people. Maybe she tried to kill Ian because of Denny dying.", reports the Daily Star.

She continued: "Maybe she tried to kill Keanu because of the kidnapping, come on Kathy. You can't tell me that a part of you don't think it's true."

Kathy fiercely retorted: "Listen, Max started that rumour. He's a liar, and so is Dean. Look Sharon is a lot of things but she wouldn't do that."

Jake Wood's character Max Branning was written out of the iconic BBC soap EastEnders in 2021, after a memorable 15-year stint.

Max first arrived in Walford back in 2006, searching for his son, but eventually left the Square when he realised there was nothing left for him, opting to start anew abroad.

Max's fleeting romance with Linda Carter (portrayed by Kellie Bright) came to an end when she called it quits, triggering his exit from the show. The ex-couple share a daughter, Annie Carter, who is also the younger half-sister to Lauren.

After Kathy Beale mentioned Max and Lauren being in hospital, speculation among EastEnders fans has been rife about the possibility of Max making a comeback to Albert Square.

On social media platform X, one viewer speculated: "A Max mention - could he back? #Eastenders @bbceastenders."

Another fan theorised: "#eastenders theory... so many threads cud pull Max back next week... imagine he rocks up with his new wife or something and it Chrissie! I would be so excited! ! ! ".

A third fan expressed certainty: "I'm fully convinced there will be a Max Branning return for the 40th. I just have a feeling #EastEnders."

One more viewer eagerly suggested: "Max Branning mention. BRING HIM BACK! #EastEnders".

EastEnders airs Monday - Thursday at 7:30pm on BBC One and iPlayer

The father of a bullied North London schoolgirl said he is a 'victim of a failing system' following her suicide. Mia Janin, 14, took her own life after receiving a torrent of horrendous messages on social media. The Year 10 pupil at the Jewish Free School (JFS) in Kenton in Harrow, North West London was found dead at her family home in Barnet on March 12, 2021. At an inquest into her death, North London area coroner Tony Murphy concluded that Mia, 14, 'took her life while still a child and while still in the process of maturing into adulthood', at Barnet Coroner's Court on Friday. Mia's father, Mariano Janin, paid tribute to his daughter, saying: "She was fantastic, she was very bubbly, good sense of humour, she was beautiful, she was very kind, very creative." Mr Murphy, whose wife Marisa has since died as well, said Mia was last seen alive at about 10pm on March 11 2021, when she said good night to her parents in their family home. READ MORE...

Furious Sutton SEND parents slam 'disrespect' from council and announce end to 10-year partnership

A forum made up of parents and carers of children with special educational needs and disabilities has cut ties with Sutton Council, accusing the authority of a lack of trust and not working effectively with them. Sutton’s Parents and Carer Forum (SPCF), which has advised the council and helped shape SEND policy for around 10 years, cites ‘disrespect’ shown to them by Sutton Council as one of their reasons for deciding to cease contact with them as of March 3 this year. This decision could leave Sutton Council able to make SEND related decisions without any oversight or input from the parents they impact, however the council says it's looking into finding a new independent group to fill the void. SPCF is an Ofsted and Department for Education recognised body that has represented the borough’s SEND families for the last decade. According to their post, published on X last Friday: “The role of the parent carers on the Steering Group is to lead this work and listen to the views and...
