Coronation Street's Max is to be groomed by a gang of extremists in upcoming episodes that will see the lives of the Platt family thrown into danger.
The character, played by Paddy Bever, is lonely and vulnerable, and has been the victim of bullies since losing his place at Weatherfield High. Friday's episode will see Peter Barlow confront eco activist Griff and his mates when he discovers that the band they have invited him to see are playing racist songs.
Toyah tackles Spider about the company he is keeping unaware that he is an undercover cop who has infiltrated the gang to expose their activity. On Monday (October 31), Griff will turn his attention to troubled Max, stepping in and threatening to teach the bullies a lesson and in doing so wins Max’s trust.
