Waterloo Road

Last week's episode when Jack left is my favourite episode of the series so far, though tonight's was brilliant also. Eva Pope really plays the part of the new headteacher really well - I instantly liked her character and I really like the attitude that she has - kinda similar to her character, Frances Myers in Bad Girls! That's what it reminded me of, but I think Rachel is a bit more of a firm character.

The Chlo stuff was really good as well and I found the two girls interviewing Steph for the school newspaper rather amusing. :D (reminds me of the school page that I do, except I can't do scandals! :D)

Whoa what an excellent episode,, it was good seeing Grantly not so cocky after he got a dressing down.. and checking with a union offical ( his offense was an immediate DISMISSAL) Steph is going to go down in flames if she isn't careful, her JOKING around is going get her sacked,,I dunno but did any of you notice some raw sexual tension between the new head mistress and Eddie ??
The part with Chlo and those awful people was great, and Chlo was so lucky she has Tom to love her ,, the part where chlo and mika hug had me in tears and goose bumps a mile high,,
This was one series is one of my favorites so far,, I thank who ever it was who encouraged me to watch it!!!!

Who is the new PA? The black woman.

What has sehe been in before? She played a social worker or a nurse or something.

ITS DRIVING ME POTTY!!!!!

What an amazing episode tonight - one of the best WR have ever done in my opinion. The storyline with the dead baby was fantastic, and I thought it was a good choice that Maxine was revealed as the mother, as her fantastic relationship with Steph was reignited. Their scene where Maxine confessed what happened was extremely emotional, as were the ones with Lewis where he thought he would have made a "crap dad" :(

The Karla storyline was rather realistic I thought, and it's being portrayed really well. I like her friendship with Davina.

Nice to see Rachel and Eddie's relationship developing too - finding out Eddie's past was rather interesting.

I thought it was a brilliant episode last night, really gripping stuff. It was really well worked, i thought Mika was the mother at one point but then we hada whole new twist. Thought Ellie Paskell was brilliant.

its just one good episode after another with this show. the Maxine stuff almost brought a tear to my eye.

It did bring a tear to my eye. I got an email saying the second series is being released on DVD next year and that they have comissioned a 4th, YAY.

I have been shocked at how ood this series has actially been, i thought with all the people leaving then it would go down hill but the new characters have been introduced are all fab.

yeh i agree, ive been really impressed with them all especially Rachel i think shes brilliant. I actually like her more in this than bad girls.

I'm over the moon that a 4th series has been commisioned (for another 20 part run). And I will be buying the Series 2 DVD when it's out next year.

Rachel, Jasmine and Matt are all brilliant characters that have been introduced. I always like Eva Pope no matter what role she is in. I like her as Rachel, but she was also fantastic as Frances Myers in Bad Girls.

Davina is also another of my faves at the moment
