[edit] Description

Max arrived in Emmerdale in early 2005, approximately one year after the introduction of the rest of his family.

[edit] Differences with his family

Max is the black sheep of his family. He originally did not work for King & Sons like his brothers. Instead of working for his livelihood, his father Tom simply gave him money. Max went on an around-the-world trip and came to Emmerdale hoping his dad would give him more money. Instead, Tom told him that for once, he had to work. Max became a vet for Paddy Kirk. However, in late 2005 he joined his father's company after helping Tom to obtain some land (by abusing his position as a vet to poison some farm animals). He had more of a connection than most to a female member of the family who is not with her family at the moment.

Max decided to leave the village in October 2005 because he was sick of his family's chicanery. He and Robert Sugden were going to leave Emmerdale but Robert's brother Andy got into a fight with Robert. Max decided he didn't want to go with Robert and got into Andy's land rover. Robert drove straight at them, causing Max to grab the steering wheel and send the rover off the road and through a brick wall. Max was trapped in the Land Rover and died instantly when it exploded.
