Yes please the story is rubbish and become boring and would never happen in real life. The writers obviously live in a different world to normal people. who expect the story to have a sense of reality to them that they can relate to.
Wife has just watched Eastenders as she had to record it cos we was watching the game on Friday. What a load of rubbish this story with Max is it is nothing like plausible. the same goes for the hostage in Corrie. Why do they keep a story going much too long so that it becomes boring.
