Waterloo Road

Series 3 - Episode 17

Radio Times
Review by:
Jane Rackham

With the pregnant Jade almost at full term, the focus of this episode is firmly on babies. The young mum-to-be has made a decision about what she wants for her newborn, but it doesn’t fit in with what Maggie has in mind and it also causes friction among her classmates, who have their own strong views on the subject.

It’s an opportunity for Waterloo Road to say something worthwhile about young mothers and the emotional trauma of giving up a baby, but disappointingly the scriptwriters have gone down a more predictable, soapy route. Meanwhile, back in school, Barry is being suspiciously well behaved and Michael gets a shock over Christine.
