Max Turner (Paddy Bever) is currently in prison on Coronation Street after he deliberately set the Platts’ house on fire – something which almost ended up killing him and also risked the life of Toyah Battersby (Georgia Taylor) who was in the house at the time.
David advised Max to be vigilant and keep his wits about him, and said they were trying to do their best to get Max moved to a prison where he’d be out of Harvey’s reach.
Despite being in prison himself, Harvey has ways and means of targeting people who have wronged him and David Platt (Jack P Shepherd) wronged him badly by stealing money that belonged to Harvey to buy the house.
Now Max is in prison and David is trying to get the money together to pay off Harvey by any means necessary, including getting involved in criminal behaviour himself.
Max thought that if he set fire to the house the insurance money would pay Harvey back and they would be in the clear.
