Yahoo News Waterloo Road announces May premiere date for new series
Waterloo Road fans will be delighted to know that the show is back on screens very soon.
The programme will return to BBC One and iPlayer for seven new episodes on Tuesday, May 16 at 8pm.
Waterloo Road will certainly be bringing lots of fireworks on its return, with Kim Campbell's former flame Andrew Treneman coming back.
Jamie Glover, who plays the former deputy head and English teacher, previously said: "I am so excited to be returning to Waterloo Road. The school has been such an important part of my life and it’s wonderful to be able to rekindle the old flame.
"Not to mention the joy of getting to work with the incomparable Angela Griffin once more.
"I hope that people will enjoy seeing Andrew and Kim together in the school again. Older? Certainly, there's the grey hair to prove it…! Wiser? Who knows?"
