Spoiler:

Izzie is not coming back for the 3rd series Jill stated in a GMTV interview 2 weeks ago. So it looks more than likely she is dead.
But what a fantastic epsiode.

Really? I had some hope that maybe she would survive

[Sam-Elle]

Same I thought that she would survive somehow. I wasnt expecting Izzie to get stabbed.

Same here, but being such a good character they couldn't just let her walk away they had to give her a brillaint exist.

Don't forget guys - this is a general discussion thread, not a spoiler thread - therefore, there should be no confirmations either way being posted about whether or not Izzie will be returning next series - people in this thread may not wish to know whether or not Jill will be returning, keep all posts regarding future episodes/series, to the spoilers forum.

Thank you

Following the death of drama teacher Izzie Redpath (Jill Halfpenny), Waterloo Road is under the media spotlight as it opens its doors for a new term. Head teacher Jack Rimmer (Jason Merrells) is on a mission to embrace "inclusion" at the school. However, some pupils seem to be more "included" than others, much to the annoyance of new deputy head Eddie Lawson (Neil Morrissey).

As well as a host of new pupils, there are also some fresh faces in the staff room. New drama teacher Matt Wilding (Chris Geere) plans to grab the headlines with the school's first musical, and work-shy Grantly (Philip Martin Brown) is delighted to have rookie Jasmine Koreshi (Shabana Bakhsh) to foist his dirty work upon.

Meanwhile, Tom (Jason Done) has his hands full playing single dad to two teenage girls and when caring but inept Steph Haydock (Denise Welch) is promoted to head of pastoral care, it can only spell trouble...
