IN DETENTION S2E7: The Bottle Doesn't Smash on the Bully

The long wait for series 18 of Waterloo Road continues, so we've continued our journey back through the best and worst of the show. This week, we're heading back to 2009 to chat about an episode in which the show does one of its trademark, ham-fisted takes on mental health. All good fun, as always. Tom Beasley and Luke Stevenson are your hosts.

For some reason, we still don't know anything about the new series of Waterloo Road, so we're delving back into our mailbag. There's plenty to talk about, including quite the deep dive into Bournemouth. *** If you want to subscribe to the PATREON page, visit http://www.patreon.com/waterlooroadpod/ for full details. *** Many thanks to our current Patrons: Zane (@TheZane15 on Twitter and Instagram), Laura, Kerry, Natalie (@nataliethebookreader on Instagram), Lucy Fields, Hazel, Lottie Smith, Jade, Helen, Kat, Joe Buckle, Catval, Mel, Hannah Louise (NHS Mental Health Services), Lou Parsons, Jess, Charlotte, Louise (@dramallamas2 on Twitter and theofficialdramallama on Tumblr), Gracie-mae, Beckett, Nathalie, Emily, Rebecca Grimshaw, Mark, Emma, Megan, Olivia, Natalie, Helen (@red.head.read on Instagram), Megan, Damon, Kerry, Laura A, and Matthew.

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.

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.
