I loved Phil's line when Max asked for another gun

"What's wrong with the one you got, don't you like the colour?"

Jake Wood's making a good job of playing a man at the end of his tether but I lost sympathy again when he whined that it was women who got him into this mess. No Max, it was your inability to keep your trousers zipped. His line about the gun being his last chance to get his family back was quite chilling. Nobody should say something like that

I still don't like Danielle and I've never been a fan of Big Mo. But £60 for a dress off a market stall? There's one born every minute.

Tony just gets more sickening "we can have some special time" made me feel ill. I'm glad Whitney's standing up to him a bit more.

I cant understand Max at all, the gun was the only chance of getting his family back? Hmmm so he really thinks any of them would want anything to do with him if he got Jack put away? Regardless of whats happening between Tanya and Jack, he's still the girls uncle, does Max really think they're gonna thank him for for getting him sent to prison. They're more likely to think that if he can turn on his flesh and blood like that, there's no reason why he wouldn't turn on them at a later date.

Amazing how that woman who looked nothing like Angelina Jolie just happened to have £60 in her purse And since when did Victoria Beckham have long black hair!

Tony is boring me with his constant whinging already, its getting to be same old same old already.

Phil's line was a cracker

What bout Archies look he gave Pat at the breakfast table. :hmm:

And the look she gave him back?

I think they've got each other's measure. Peggy'll be like a bone between two dogs.

I almost forgot about Suzy and Oscar in last nights episode. For once Suzy actually did the right thing. I'm not quite sure where Max gets the idea that he never sees the kids from, because he's always dropping into the house (wanted or unwanted). However, Suzy did exactly the right thing, she went to talk to Tanya, not shout or play games, she just spoke to her. And as she's shown all along Tanya has no qualms about Max seeing the kids (I think once she said Max couldnt see them in anger, but soon withdrew the threat because she didnt mean it).
If Max had just spent an extra half second thinking about his family instead of trying to get one over on Tanya or Jack, then he might have realised it would have only taken a few calm words to arrange proper visitiation.

I think Suzy's more interested in protecting herself rather than helping Max. When she finally noticed how upset he was her first thought was probably that if he takes off who's going to help her with the rent? Phil never stood up for her when Peggy was pushing her out of the picture at the Vic so she has to hold onto Max as much as she can. But unless there's something seriously wrong with her she's not going to let Max use a gun on their brother.
