Well I doubt the BBC switchboard could have coped with all the complaints. My wife was almost physically sick at watching the concept of being buried alive. Last week she thought Max was an evil cheating liar who deserved to be hung, last night she felt sorry for him.
I presume he had some fresh air under there. Anyone might be forgiven for thinking that such lack of air might lead to unconsciousness after a bit, then brain damage. Still, nothing that a quick sploosh can�t clear up eh?
I had my thoughts with oscar the whole time, when her and sean went to bury Max at the same time Ian and his mrs were at the morge I was shouting who's got oscar then later Steven walked in with him. Like you'd leave a baby with him
That poor baby! I noticed Jane had already bugg3red off out with Bobby to get him away from Ian, leaving oscar, who she was supposed to be babysitting, with Ian instead.
I think the script writers forgot to take everyone affected into account properly when they wrote this story line.
Can't stand Max - the smug git! Although I quite like Tanya - a very talented young lady.
Mind you, the minute she left the house to claw Max up again, albeit both fighting for breath, I did think she was irresponsible for leaving her children on her own! Tut, tut, Tanya!
Also, Max needs to find a busier job - that way, he'll be too knackered to mess around with anything in a short skirt, low top, in the future! Silly innit?!
No, Max is not dead. Tanya had a burst of consciousness when she spotted a bag of sherbert lemons and the kitchen table and drove back out to the forest to dig him up.
They went home, Max had a shower, got back in his car and tootled off.
In real-life, his wife has just had a baby and he is on 3 months paternity leave, so god knows how Tanya's going to explain that one............
I thought the burying Max alive storyline was a little far-fetched, but I was quite impressed with Adam Woodyatt's acting as Ian approached the prospect of identifying his daughters body.
