I can bet my hat on it: Max will NEVER be declared a sex addict, it would limit his character.

He's currently having an affair with the police officer dealing with Lucy's murder. We still don't know exactly his involvement in her death (if at all). He has a storyline as such... it's just on the back burner for a few weeks.

Dtc promised us it wouldn't become the carter show and they've been shoved down our throats all summer! And things aren't going to change either as they feature heavily over the next 2 weeks! Max, Sonia, kat, alfie, whitney all desperately need storylines!:P when I say whitney needs a storyline I don't mind sitting in the vic drinking with her little teenage gang, sooooooooo Loraine newman

To be fair, he was in need of a break. Some long neglected characters needed some limelight for a while.

He has a storyline and is part of the Lucy investigation so no doubt his role will increase when that storyline gears up in Autumn.

Perhaps Max and Stacey could have a baby and name it Bradley?

A sex addiction storyline would be difficult to portray in a soap I think.

He's having his affair with Emma - that's enough for him at the moment considering he's monopolised the show for several years.

I do have quite a nice story for Max planned out though - what if he had a secret daughter? A daughter older than Lauren, but younger than Bradley from an affair he had?

I've never seen him as a sex addict I just see him as someone who finds it difficult to commit but that's probably because of emotional reasons not because he's hooked on sex. He certainly hasn't gone looking for it on street corners like Ian has, we've never seen him have loads of one night stands etc.

Perhaps he's just hooked on the exciting feelings that a new relationship brings and doesn't like it once it gets a bit stale so goes out looking for that excitement again?

I've said it before stacey slater should get with a serial killer who tries to kill max after he uncovers his secret and threatens to tell stacey... Max is left in a coma and suffers severe brain damage and memory loss...

Good. I'm glad of the break from him, he has dominated for too long. Give Roxy, Denise and other neglected characters a storyline for a change.

I'd like him to be scouted as an arse model. Think that'd be an original high brow hard hitting storyline.

They could do an online spin-off (like that E20 thing) going behind the scenes during his shoots.

And he will continue to do nothing until the next affair/shag comes along with a woman that is way out of his league. He's a walking plot device. The romance with Summerhayes will start to go wrong when Stacey returns and he's off trying to seduce her behind Emma's back. Summerhayes = Tanya 2.0. Too obvious

Mind you, he's not done anything for years. He's just gone from one woman to another. A highly tedious character and needs to be axed. Of course he never will be because DTC and other EPs seem to think Max is some integral character to the show , so he's pretty untouchable. Unless he was revealed as Lucy's killer...

Why. Max seems to be doing a decent job of it so far

Regarding the secret daughter - NO, please No. Surely that particular scenario has been done to death one way or another.

I'd rather Max had less story lines. I thought it couldn't get any worse than him and Lucy but him taking up with the police woman is just too much.

It's a relief for me when Max is off screen. So long may that continue. It's good that Tanya left as it's meant less screentime than usual for him. Although I expect our Friendly Neighbourhood Ginger Sex God will be back infesting our screens once again when Stacey returns. I can't say I'm looking forward to weeks and weeks worth of episodes of Max trying to get Stacey into bed.

Oh yes the inevitable will they won't they

Maybe he can cheat on the police woman with Stacey. That will make it ever so interesting

Mind-blowing idea for a storyline, Trev! Max could do with an affair storyline. He's not had enough of those .

Seriously though, he's such a pointless and ridiculous character. Who's left to shag?

Isn't he supposed to be shagging that copper DC Summerhayes?
Speaking of this, when is this going to come out in the open and Emma removed from the case for compromising it?
