Waterloo Road has angered viewers by killing off much loved character Chlo Charles after just one episode of the new series.
Chlo is one of the show originals from its mid 00s hey-day that returned as the high school drama made its return to screens, 17 years after its successful debut. Played by actress Katie Griffiths, Chlo was at the centre of some massive storylines in the first few series of Waterloo Road, including her romance with eventual husband Dante, leading to a tense drink drive storyline, teenage pregnancy and a cheating scandal, which saw her sleep with her sister's boyfriend.
Chlo was also rocked by the harrowing death of mum Izzy, played by Jill Halfpenny, which gave the BBC programme one of its most heart-wrenching moments. Waterloo Road's return to screens was announced in 2021 and, shortly before filming commenced last year, it was confirmed that Katie would be back in the Waterloo Road cast as Chlo, along with on-screen husband Adam Thomas, much to the excitement of fans.
