What do we know about the new series of Waterloo Road?

It was announced last year that Waterloo Road would be returning after it came to an end in 2015.

The original series ran from 2006 until 2015. The first 7 series were filmed and set in Rochdale and series 8, 9 and 10 were filmed and set in Greenock, Scotland.

However the new series will be set in Greater Manchester.

Last week it was confirmed Adam is returning alongside Katie Giffiths, who played Donte’s wife Chlo Granger and Angela Griffin, who played teacher Kim Campbell.

Angela played teacher Kim Campbell in series one and two. She then returned in season four and left again at the end of season five.

This time, Kim will be headteacher of the new Waterloo Road.
