A soldier in full uniform marches into Waterloo Road. It’s former pupil Bolton Smilie, but while some teachers welcome him with open arms, Grantly Budgen is as suspicious as always. Bolton has been fighting in Afghanistan, so Michael Byrne thinks it’d be great for him to give an inspirational talk to the pupils. It’s not one of his better ideas, although Rhiannon, still smarting from Barry’s shabby treatment of her, takes a shine to the good-looking squaddie.
It’s a downbeat edition that’s enlivened by the discovery that Audrey likes to don scarlet high heels and go salsa dancing. I knew there was more to her than meets the eye.
About this programme
16/20. The truth about Wilson is revealed when Steph overhears a conversation between him and Janeece. Rachel comes clean after Eddie confronts her about her past, but the revelations about the blackmail leave him with no choice but to issue an ultimatum - either she reports Hordley or he resigns. James Rawlings, Neil Morrissey and Eva Pope star.
