To quite fancy Max Branning

I've always had a bit of a soft spot for him, despite his sleaze factor, but after tonight's episode with his top off......well I can definitely see his appeal to Lucy. Phwoar.

Anyone else?

I'd do rude things to Max Branning!!

neiljames77 · 04/04/2014 04:22

He looks like one of those Tamworth pigs with the white eyelashes.

fackinell · 04/04/2014 06:35

He hit on me when I was 18 and at a party in his house, in Islington (22 yrs ago.) I wasn't interested so he copped off with my mate instead. Grin

slartybartfast · 04/04/2014 06:41

yanbu, he is Good

3DcAndMe · 04/04/2014 06:44

Yabu

He is not a pretty sight

And a sleeze ball

RedFocus · 04/04/2014 09:06

Hmm Max Branning is a total sleaze but the actor is pretty hot I think or do I have terrible taste in men Wink

mrsjay · 04/04/2014 09:23

no he is shagging lucy beale he is vile

DigitConfusion · 04/04/2014 09:59

YANBU! I would do many naughty things with Max Branning but then I do have proven atrocious taste in men.

I did have a little giggle when he was snogging Lucy Beale though. The actor must have thought his luck was well in when he read that particular script!

grabaspoon · 04/04/2014 10:00

Did you not think she seemed quite scared/worried when he approached her.

mrsjay · 04/04/2014 10:10

I dont think the actor would have thought anything of the sort digit

yes she looked confused and worried i only caught it on bbc3 because there was nothing else on not watched it in ages Lucy dies soon apparently

ProlificPenguin · 04/04/2014 10:24

Hands off!!!

BobPatSamandIgglePiggle · 04/04/2014 10:30

Me too! There's a man gets on my Metro who is his double (totally not my type but definitely has something)

He wears a suit and looks all manly - he got on wearing chinos and a jacket the other day - totally spoilt it for me and I've gone roght off him

Will have to find someone else to admire stalk now

(Don't tell dp - I lufs him really!)

mrsjay · 04/04/2014 11:33

I know it is not rea
l BUT i always worry when i see these threads about max branning he is a complete Rat he shagged his sons wife she was just as bad he got remarried and didnt tell tanya till his WIfe turned up at the door, and various other affairs stealing money and being just a slime ball

yet women want to shag the arse off him, don't get it

NuggetofPurestGreen · 04/04/2014 11:47

I know mrsjay but personally when I'm imagination shagging someone I'm just going on their looks not their actions. So all that is irrelevant.

Katiepoes · 04/04/2014 11:57

Yack. Made me feel ill last night. Bad enough that he looks like a raw wonton, but that whispery voice, eeughh gives me the heebiejeebies.

I missed a couple of episodes, was he not in love with Stacey to the point that he'd let the drippy one go to prison only ten days ago?

Women in EE are all mad as regards men anyway. Phil? Alfie? And let's just think about Ian Beale......actually no let's not. BLEH.

Eminybob · 04/04/2014 14:59

Lol at raw wonton Grin

He is rather pasty but I quite like it. I think it's something about the bad boy thing that makes me all quivery. Couldn't be more different from my lovely DP. But that's why it's just fantasy, not reality!

Eminybob · 04/04/2014 15:01

And meant to say, yes he was trying to shag Stacey in that EXACT SAME hotel room a week ago, and he tried it on with Jane earlier this week! (Mind you, so did half the square)

I would Blush

Writerwannabe83 · 05/04/2014 14:51

I just watched the Omnibus - I did smile when he appeared from the bathroom in just his towel!! Who knew he was hiding that body beneath his clothes!!!

WorraLiberty · 05/04/2014 14:56

Oh god I can't find anything remotely attractive about him.

In fact I can't believe he's been cast in such an unlikely role as to be so popular with the women/girls.

I'm also distracted by his somewhat strange orange glow Grin

Takingbackmonday · 05/04/2014 15:08

He looks like a baked bean. I probably still would.

halfwildlingwoman · 05/04/2014 16:53

He is foul. A waste of skin. I would rather be celibate for the rest of my life than so much as kiss him on the cheek. I hate Eastenders. I hate how all these lovely nubile girls like Stacy and Zoe and Lucy have to shag these disgusting old, ugly and borderline violent sleazebags like Max and Den.
Also the producers are bullies and overwork their actors. I have this on good authority.

NigellasGuest · 05/04/2014 16:57

I prefer David Wicks. I hope he's not getting overworked

dexter73 · 05/04/2014 17:27

I can't believe anyone would fancy that fuzzy man peach. Eastenders does make me laugh having him and Phil Mitchell as sex gods!

cattypussclaw · 05/04/2014 17:31

Nooooooooooooooo. No. He's a sleazeball. Fatboy however....
