Are Cindi and Max the squares new super toxic couple ?

the80sweregreat · 30/12/2025 09:04

Oh no, will Cindy actually forgive Max for past misdemeanors and start washing his socks ?
Or just pistols at dawn , maybe she’ll try and get him killed!

the80sweregreat · 30/12/2025 09:08

I guess that her having the baby wrist band and the key ring are some clues to her identity, but could also be fake. I would be hounding her, how did you get them , how did you know about it and so on. I’d be pretty relentless tbh. As well as the DNA samples , other more scientific efforts. Contact the adopted mum. Social services, I’d be on it all, not just accept that she was my child until it’s proved properly!

That thought did cross my mind when watching today’s episode. But he likes his partners younger than him.

Max does prefer a younger blond.

Max prefers a younger any hair colour

GoneWoman · 30/12/2025 09:40

Cindy will marry Max
Then bump him off on the wedding night

Shellingbynight · 30/12/2025 10:48

Jack says in the trailer "life is one big game innit - kiss, marry, kill". But I can't tell who he is saying it to? You see the back of a guy's head but it isn't Max. It looks like maybe Ian?

In the trailer , it does look like Jack is talking to Max at first , but I it may be edited to just look that way , it’s all so brief isn’t it!

NowNumber5 · 30/12/2025 10:59

Tommy is Lurky McLurkerson today!

@Shellingbynight Taken from the Radio Times article you posted -

A recent trailer even revealed Max blaming Lauren for turning him over to the police, while Jack warned that Max's life is one big game of "Kiss, Marry, Kill" - which Wadey himself has teased as central to this story.

I think Max is standing to the left of the guy we see in the clip.

Shellingbynight · 30/12/2025 11:10

Ah thanks that would make sense, I thought it was Max he was saying it to. That may not even be Ian, it could be another police officer. It may (or may not!) make more sense when we see the episode.

the80sweregreat · 30/12/2025 11:42

Caught up today :
Bravo Linda for telling Max to grow up !
Poor Partick and still no ‘ Flo’ officer :(

the80sweregreat · 30/12/2025 11:43

Nicola and max. Just no !
I hope that she doesn’t go there

Nannylovesshopping · 30/12/2025 11:48

Omg!!! Santa might have put some ginger nuts in Cindy’s stocking…..
best line ever🤣

the80sweregreat · 30/12/2025 12:11

It’s amazing how they all work out some things straight away but other things elude them!

Nannylovesshopping · 30/12/2025 11:48

No, that was the other day when Cindy said to Max that Santa hadn't come up her chimney yet....

the80sweregreat · 30/12/2025 17:49

I know I’m an old prude, but there is too much innuendo lately.
I would love them to do an STD storyline that isn’t HIV , as some have the morals of alley cats ( side eye, Max and Cindy , of course !)

StupidHappyClocks · 30/12/2025 18:57

Ginger nuts in Cindy’s stocking was class 🤣

Not sure any man of the cloth would have just stood silently while Max & Cindy had a stand up row in the church escalating into a punch up! Just imagining the grumpy old Irish priest who baptised my kids. He would have had the pair of them by the scruff of their necks and fecked them out of the place at the first sign of any nonsense!

Max is good value as a character, as he brings chaos and drama wherever he goes, but honestly, he is such a pathetically self pitying, self absorbed man. He really needs to grow the fuck up.

‘I’ve been orn me ooowwwnnn a lot’…<sob>

Oh shut up, Max! You’ve sleazed over cried on the shoulder of Zoe, Stacey, Cindy, Linda…and that’s just since you’ve been back on the Square!

He also needs to address his drinking. I know it’s Christmas, but he’s forever necking booze in somebody’s kitchen.

the80sweregreat · 30/12/2025 11:43

She will! Max's body count will include Nicola, Chelsea, Linda, Kim and he'll likely sniff around Denise to even the score with Jack and Stacey. All by the end of the year - ding dong 🔔

mumofoneAloneandwell · 30/12/2025 19:16

Watching christmas days - max is a piece of shit isn't he 😭😭

gingercat02 · 30/12/2025 20:06

I have always loved Max (as a character not 🍆) He has spiced this up already. I hope Nicola stays away, shagging randomers when you are pregnant is a bit grim imo.
It is Ian in the trailer I'm fairly sure.
Poor old Paddy, his life just gets worse.
I agree any priest I know would have thrown the lot of them out.

the80sweregreat · 30/12/2025 20:32

I hope that the women of Walford have ( finally ) realized Max is a waste of time and energy and leave him be. Nic is pregnant, she certainly shouldn’t go near him! Cindy may go back , but could only be for revenge .. although we have had enough of all that lately !
He was whiney today wasn’t he! ‘ oh dear, AJ is a nightmare , the lady neighbour needed her plumbing looked at , I didn’t mean to leave her home alone ‘ etc etc. Linda’s eye roll to all that .. I just hope she steers clear , but hard when you have a child together. I just hope Annie turns out better than this AJ.

mumofoneAloneandwell · 30/12/2025 20:33

I love him too! For both character and 🍆 😭, hes excellent

But definitely a shit man

@gingercat02

doodlydo · 30/12/2025 20:36

AJ keeps getting mentioned. How long before she shows up.

the80sweregreat · 30/12/2025 20:39

Oh god no! Please. This AJ sounds worse than Lexi and her general bossiness and Jasmine and her bad acting.
She can stay with Tanya ! Terrorize Devon instead.
