MAX Turner has a surprising change of attitude in the cobbles next week and his father David Platt is impressed.

Little does he know the Coronation Street teen is actually being bullied by a group of vile thugs.

After causing trouble in Weatherfield, most notably for Amy Barlow whom he accidentally spiked and Nicky Wheatley who had to scrap all of her plans, Max Turner is trying to clean up his act.

The youngster played by Paddy Bever has been trying to prove he has changed after being booted from Weatherfield High and transferred to a pupil referral unit.

But things haven't been going well – after being catfished, Max still has to deal with more antics from his bullies.

Coming up, David Platt (played by Jack P. Shepherd) is bemused when Max asks to be picked up after school instead of getting the bus.
