A week of Brannings!
EastEnders goes to the Max for Branning week.
For one week only, EastEnders will beÌýon our screensÌýevery week night to celebrate the return of Max Branning (Jake Wood) and the arrival of his older brother Derek (Jamie Foreman).
Derek's arrival willÌýshock the entire family who haven’t seen him for years. Will heÌýbe the same destructive, dangerous man he used to be, and if so, will his family give him a warm welcome or the cold shoulder?
How will Tanya feel about Max's return? Will she finally find the courage to Ìýtell the people who love her about her cancer and treatment?
Find out what happens during the week commencing Monday 21 November, AKA Branning week!

aswell as the brannings i think its the start of phil and derek's feud if the webcam scripts with phil / shirley / rainie meant him..although im confused now why is rainie involved with them that week when she'd be in more scenes with tanya ? a least that means there'd be no phil / rainie affair :)

If a knew a person like Max in real life I'd hate them to the core, but Jake plays him so well and actually makes you feel sorry for him on times - Max really is the character I (and probally many other EE fans) love to hate!

I wonder what will happen with Derek i hope hes a villain haha cause I think we need quite a few more villains in Eastenders especially cause Yusef is rubbish but hes a good actor and we never see much of Phil and Archie's dead, so theres only really Janine whos the best villain sorry... I do think Steve Mcfadden is an amazing actor though in Eastenders!! I hope Tanya admits to Max that she loves him, cause they are a really good couple ohh and Tanya will have to tell Max that shes got cancer but shes also pregnant with his baby, oohhh i cant wait!! Roll on the 21st of November (Branning Week!!!)

Pat's friend Norman was reading the Walford Gazzette a few days ago in the pub (or was it the cafe?) and the front page headline mentioned some sort of attack or abuse at Walford Care Ö÷²¥´óÐã... Can't imagine Dot would feel good about it and I can see the whole Branning clan in court suing the local authorities... What do you think?… Just a thought! :)

I can't wait to see Max again, I've missed him on-screen a lot, and it's going to be great to see him with Tanya again after their affair in the summer, and I really hope Tanya tells Max about her cancer and it will be really interesting to see how he reacts. I hope Tanya tells Cora and Rainie too.
I'm so excited to have Derek Branning back in the show again after his appearance in 1996. I'm intruiged as to how the Brannings as a whole and individually through Carol, Jack etc will act by welcoming him back or not. I reckon there's a massive fued on the way between Derek and Phil Mitchell...
Roll on BRANNING WEEK...let's take it to the MAX!!!

Ricky and Bianca will be back for Pat's exit at Christmas. Patsy is working on a special "working mums" contract which is less hours but I believe there's some really good stuff for Bianca in the pipeline...bring it!!!
