Grantley and Tom are still there? I would of thought they would of left by now. They are the only two original cast members left aren't they?

Janeece was also an original, despite the small break when she left school.

Tariq's in a wheelchair? Guess thats from the crash at the end of the last series

pokemaster · 02/08/12 - 19:51

Strange how when Finn broke his leg at the end of one series a few weeks later he was fine?

or when Finn and Amy had that relationship which was never mentioned again.

I was expecting it to return in September but I'm pleased it's returning sooner as I haven't really had that much to watch on tv lately.

[Deleted User] · 03/08/12 - 21:39

I remember watching the very ending of the last episode and thinking OMG!

Scottish schools return in mid-August, which would be around the same time Waterloo Road is back on.

Why is there no mention of the crash at the end of the last series in the synopsis? as presumably someone died? hope they don't show the aftermath in first 5 mins and then move on.

also why move it back to Thursday? up against emmerdale and corrie? strange but it was better when originally shown on thursday.

Yeah, at the end of the school year (July) they would literally rather die than be split up. At the start of the new one (September), they forgot each other existed, and seemingly never spoke again! :eek:

Speaking of which, Amy vanished herself and was never mentioned again...

Isn't the 23rd of August GCSE results day?

PunksNotDead · 04/08/12 - 03:08

No mention of Denzils Funeral in the first episode spoiler's as i thought he died from the crash that happened at the end of last series

Woop, love Waterloo Road. Glad Grantly in particular is still in it, plus Tom. I'd have thought Tariq would have finished school by now?? Oh, and Mark Benton :d

[Deleted User] · 10/08/12 - 00:51

Ah I've missed this show, nice to have something to look forward too

Didnt he appear in a advert a few years ago being a drill sergeant in a boot camp for some advert?

revans33 · 23/08/12 - 20:01

So is Tariq paralysed permanently?

[Deleted User] · 23/08/12 - 20:03

I'll put this in here...
"WATERLOO ROAD. Hmmm. Not sure what I'm expecting, just hope it's going to be okay. Although, it's never going to beat series 3. BRING BACK CHLO AND DONTE...you know...as teachers...in Scotland...? "

RingoJ739K · 23/08/12 - 20:03

Denzil:(

[Deleted User] · 23/08/12 - 20:05

Dunno if this is dodgy casting or Drew is 10 years older than his woman...
