It has been a long time coming but Waterloo Road finally returned to screens at the start of January. Those who watched the school-based drama the first time around were thrilled in 2021 when the BBC announced it would be reviving the show.
The new series marks the school-based drama's first return to screens in almost eight years after it was axed. The show, which ran from 2006 to 2015, was first filmed at Hill Top Primary School in Rochdale before relocating to Scotland. And the reboot has seen the team return to Greater Manchester.
And while it is a new series, the new era of Waterloo Road also features original cast members including Adam Thomas, who has reprised the role of former bad boy pupil-turned-parent Donte Charles, and his on-screen partner Chlo, played by Katie Griffiths, as well as Angela Griffin as the school's new head teacher, Kim Campbell.
