About Scout and her voice,,,can't hear her so I have to read her facial expression and body language,, shes Ok ,,just different..
William Ash has admitted that he decided to quit Waterloo Road before he no longer enjoyed the role.
The actor will bow out of the BBC drama as deputy head teacher Chris Mead, when the seventh series comes to a conclusion next week. Speaking to TV Times, Ash revealed that Chris decides to pack in his career to protect students Scout and Liam, who have been abandoned by their mother.
"Chris is under pressure from all sides and feels completely under the cosh. He doesn't want to walk away and leave Scout and Liam to the authorities," he said. "But he also doesn't want to throw his career away. It's a real catch-22 situation for him.
"He chooses to go after Scout and Liam, as he's afraid something really bad could happen to them. He ends up having to choose between helping them or his career, and he sacrifices his career!"
Explaining his alter ego's reasoning, he added: "He has an epiphany and realises he can no longer be just a teacher. He's got to do something else where he can get more involved. Teaching isn't enough for him."
On leaving the drama, Ash commented: "I wanted a fresh challenge - and it turns out that fresh challenge is the dole queue! Only joking. I really enjoyed being on Waterloo Road, I've had a great time and made good friends. I wanted to leave while I was still really enjoying it. And I knew it was time to do something else."
The 34-year-old confirmed that he has filmed an episode of Shameless and is to spend the next few months in a play at the Globe theatre.
I first discovered William Ash in MAD ABOUT MAMBO,,any one else seen it,, ?? Since then I have always enjoyed his work...
I think I first saw him in one of thosed Sunday night dramas like Hearbeat & The Royal. Can't think of the name though.

Paul Nicholls was reportedly sacked from Waterloo Road after refusing a drugs test.
Last week, it was revealed that the former EastEnders actor had exited the BBC drama, just three days into his new role as PE teacher Jez Diamond.
It was claimed that Nicholls had behaved "erratically" on set, while also being reprimanded for arriving late twice in his three days of filming.
The 32-year-old's alleged behaviour is said to have to come following the death of his grandfather.
The Sun reports that bosses decided to let Nicholls go after he failed to agree to attend a drugs test at a Harley Street Clinic. "Paul refused the test," a source added.
Alex Walkinsaw - best known for his role as Smithy in ITV police drama The Bill - has replaced Nicholls, and is thought to have begun filming alongside ex-Holby City star Jaye Jacobs, who will portray Jez's wife Sian.
The current series of Waterloo Road concludes tomorrow at 7.30pm on BBC One.
