The Walford bad boy collapsed clutching his chest, just as he was about to confess his lies to his bride. At the beginning of the night’s episode, just after the opening credits had rolled, the aftermath of Max having a heart attack was shown. However, eagle-eyed fans noticed that rather than the characters springing into action to help a stricken Max, the cast looked like they were looking towards the EastEnders director. They were seen standing still, before rushing to help the patriarch of the Branning household.
