I believe Max and Vanessa will and should marry.

I dont think they will. I believe Max and Tanya are destined to be together forever and ever and ever as much as i detest them.

I'd rather see a Vanessa Moon but with Alfie or Michael????

I hope they do not on the very grounds that Zoe Lucker is one of the worst actresses I have ever seen.

Please, no. I find Vanessa so dull and she's making Max boring, by association.

Oh GOD NO I hope not, Afghan needs to piss off she's so boring. And not suited to Max at all.

I actually feel really sorry for Jake Wood lumbered with Zoe Lucker, Kylie Babbington and Charlie G Hawkins. 3 awful actors

That'd be weird since Phil had an affair with Dawn who brother Darren is set to marry the daughter of Maxs lady friend

They need to turn Vanessa into a superbitch! Zoe Lucker was brilliant as Tanya Turner in Footballer's Wives and Bad Girls. I still quite like the character, they just need to use her more.

They definitely need to do something with her. At the moment they're just shoving her at the back and occasionally wheeling her out to comment on Jodie's, or the Brannings', latest crisis.

they already have glenda/janine that would be overkill especially with all being blonde..I'm fine with her being the stepford wife that occasionally gives max the what for.But it seems the writers arent even disguising the fact that this is a transitional pairing which is a shame..

Good lord...

Zoe Lucker is fabulous. She's so versatile! She was the uber manipulative bitch in Footballers' Wives, the downtrodden junior police woman in Holby Blue, and now the calm, composed, rational and highly enigmatic housewife in EastEnders.

Vanessa is a key character for me. I pray she gets a central role in a storyline soon.

A few weeks ago I had a strange thought involving Max and Denise. For a moment I was like but after a little while, I quite liked this idea. I mean, they're both brilliant characters and portrayed by amazing actors, and it would give Diane Parish something better to do because at the moment she's actually doing next to nothing, which is a shame. But no, Denise should stay clear of men for a while, otherwise they'll end up dead or in prison.

Still don't know about Vanessa Gold though. I'm sitting on the fence with her character. I like Zöe Lucker and at first I thought Vanessa was very promising but it kinda fell flat. I guess they're still developing her character so that we can get used to her but they went for some weird choices (Vanessa's (supposed?) OCD being scrapped, the lacklustre that was Harry's reign of "terror" suddenly dropped, no follow-up of Max ready to up and leave with Stacey, Vanessa being portrayed as an independant woman yet she still hasn't got a job).
Although I must admit I quite enjoyed what happened last week as we got to see more interaction between the aforementioned characters. I just hope they carry on like that...

I agree Vanessa is badly underused-so much potential-they need to make some space storyline wise for her.

Max indicated he was over Tanya and hadnt even thought about her so I dont see how pairing Max and Tanya back up is credible.

Max and Vanessa are suited but they need to be together on screen more

I really like Vanessa, she has potential. I liked her scenes a while back with Stacey, showed she really cared for Max and had a different side to her. I also remember a scene where she stood in Lauren's(?) way in the corridor. If it was Lauren? I'm pretty sure it was. The OCD-like tendencies she has is something they need to explore. But I really think her and Max are a good pairing, especially back when they first started seeing each other.

What would be the point? It would not last 3 months without either of them having an affair with their respective brother/sister/ex husband/ex wife/bit of passing trade/daughter in law/son in law. That is of course if they make it past the honeymoon as there is always a "to do" at the ceremony or reception.

I, for one, cannot wait.

It's funny you should menton Shirley because I think Max treats Vanessa a bit like Phil used to treat, and sometimes does treat Shirley. I mean in like not involving her in any part of his life, so she just seems to spend her time hanging around waiting for him to cook his tea and things.

When Max has other stuff going on with his extended family, kids, Stacy, work ect, he just doesnt involve her in any of that. Vanessa seems to be like a 'dolly bird', and glorified hostess and cleaner, who dances around in her white outfit, forever waiting for Max to come home from whatever he is doing. That is the main problem with her. She needs to have something of her own.

Shirley isn't Max's type - she is too old for starters - he is more likely to have a one night stand with someone like Roxy or Jodie if anyone.
