  • TOP OF THE CLASS S5E9: Max-chiavellian

    This week, our journey back through the best and worst of Waterloo Road takes us to Lindsay's trial and a genuinely excellent Jenna Coleman performance. Unfortunately, everything going on at the school during this one is completely bizarre. Tom Beasley and Luke Stevenson are your hosts.

  • Monthly Mailbag October 2026

    There's still a long way to go until Waterloo Road is back on our screens. Fortunately, we have plenty of book chat, interesting WR-based questions, and meal deal judgments to get through in the mailbag.

  • IN DETENTION S5E7: Made a Coffee for Taylor Swift

    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.

  • Monthly Mailbag September 2026

    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.

  • TOP OF THE CLASS S4E13: Lots of Knocker Chat

    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.

  • Series 18 Predictions

    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. Tom Beasley and Luke Stevenson are your hosts.

  • IN DETENTION S4E11: On The Path to Underwear Theft

    We're covering the first return of Kim Campbell as we return to one of the Waterloo Road episodes we voted for as among the worst back when we first reviewed it. There's a glamour model at the school, Philip is being really horrible, and the show is trying to convince us that Eddie and Rachel have a romance worth rooting for. Tom Beasley and Luke Stevenson are your hosts.

  • TOP OF THE CLASS S4E8: Cardboard Box Baby

    We're taking a look back at one of the most powerful, tragic episodes of Waterloo Road as we discuss Earl's murder of Maxine, as well as some baffling Jasmine stuff and a bizarrely perfunctory Ofsted inspection. Tom Beasley and Luke Stevenson are your hosts.
