    While we wait for the new series of Waterloo Road, we're heading back to the fourth series to talk about our favourite episode from the second chunk. Eddie's in charge of the school, just as a Traveller site appears adjacent to the grounds. There's also a very special quiz, with high stakes for one of us. Tom Beasley and Luke Stevenson are your hosts.

    Series 18 Predictions

    We're just weeks away from the expected return of Waterloo Road for series 18, so we're doing our traditional predictions. According to us, this series will feature social media, an obvious romance for Donte, and the highly anticipated (by us) return of Jack Rimmer's estranged children.

    We're covering the first return of Kim Campbell as we return to one of the Waterloo Road episodes we voted for as among the worst back when we first reviewed it. There's a glamour model at the school, Philip is being really horrible, and the show is trying to convince us that Eddie and Rachel have a romance worth rooting for.
