Jake Wood has bowed out of EastEnders after more than 15 years on the soap.
His character Max Branning departed Walford after realising he could not put aside his feelings for Linda Carter (Kellie Bright), who had returned to her husband Mick’s (Danny Dyer) side after their affair.
Determined to win Linda’s affections, he tried to blackmail Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) to sign over The Queen Vic pub to Mick.
He hoped the gesture would prove his love to Linda, but the stunt backfired and Mick confronted him at the pub and warned him to stay away from his wife.
