Waterloo Road Series Eight – Spring Term DVD – Amanda Burton, William Ash

There are new kids in town when the Barry family arrives at Waterloo Road led by their hard as nails matriarch Carol. There’s Dynasty dressed to kill and capable of it; Kacey a girl with the kick of a pro-footballer and Barry Barry (so bad they named him twice) a smiling charmer who’s greatest ability is to spell trouble for Waterloo Road. It promises to be a hard year all round as Head Teacher Michael may face trial for the assisted death of his father; Chalky is set to become a foster parent to the doubting Kevin; Christine struggles to remain sober while keeping Imogen and Connor apart; and Sian is trying to keep it all together while about to face a challenge all of her own. For the most struggling kids there’s help in sight with a new Pupil Referral Unit for vulnerable underachievers like Phoenix Rhiannon and Jodie. Nikki Boston is running the unit with a chip on her shoulder and a reason to crush Jodie’s spirit – but it could be the wrong girl to pick on for the wrong reason. Throw in a couple of young lottery winners a much-loved teacher with a new found weakness and wedding bells at the last minute for an on-again/off-again couple and it all adds up to one of the most exciting terms yet for the new-look Waterloo Road.
