EastEnders fans see Max and Lauren Branning go head-to-head at work next week, as they fight for control of the car lot.
As the father and daughter duo continue to clash over their differing sales methods, the pair are pitted against each other in a fierce challenge. Who will shift the most motors and claim victory?
“Max and Lauren are at each other’s throats again,” begins our EastEnders insider. “But this time it’s as colleagues. There’s a proper power struggle at the car lot that is making it tricky to get anything done, so something needs to change – and fast. Will a sales showdown bring them together, or tear them further apart?”
While Lauren was grateful for Max coughing up the money for her to buy the car lot from Jay Brown, she assumed he would be a mere silent partner. So, it was quite the shock when her dad vowed to be a hands-on manager and started treating her like his assistant.
Lauren has been running the business single-handedly for months and wants nothing more than to prove herself to everyone. But she hasn’t had much chance to do so, with Max returning to his old stomping ground and getting his feet under the table straight away.

What becomes clear this week is that Lauren and Max are from different generations, so they have very different ideas about how to sell a car – but they do share a love of a challenge. Call in Oscar Branning…
“There’s no better person than Oscar to judge this competition, as he’d love the idea of putting his dad and his sister through their paces,” continues our spy.
“He suggests a friendly competition to decide once and for all who is the better salesperson, and Lauren and Max are more than up for the fight…”
As the Brannings lock horns in the car lot, Max decides to make things even more interesting. He tells his daughter that if she sells £80,000 worth of cars within a month, he will give her half the business. Can Lauren rise to the occasion and make her dream come true?
