There are mixed messages all over Waterloo Road, and you don’t have to read between the lines to find them. Recently installed Head Teacher Karen Fisher has both her her daughters, Bex and Jess, back with her now, along with her son Harry; but Bex comes with some dangerous baggage in the form of a demanding ex-boyfriend, Hodge, who’ll stop at nothing to get her back, including seducing Jess. Meanwhile Grantly has fallen into a rut with his wife in a care home and needs some care himself. Ruby takes him on, but confused signals leads Grantly to feel that there may be more to her intentions. Francesca Montoya, the Spanish Teacher, finds herself heavily in demand from an eager Tom Clarkson, but she’s already crossed a very dangerous barrier and started an affair with a pupil that could send her to prison if they aren’t very careful. While Karen Fisher struggles to maintain the separation of boys and girls into different teaching groups, she must juggle the politics of a new head of pastoral care, student homosexuality, angry parents and children who are mother’s themselves. And when someone close to her hacks into her e-mail to send aggressive messages to her fellow teachers, it could lead to her downfall. In one of the tensest, most exciting terms at Waterloo Road yet seen, these mixed messages and more lead to dangerous, illegal and possibly even deadly conclusions.
It's a whole new world for Waterloo Road as many of the teachers and some of the pupils move to a new academy school in Greenock, Scotland, sponsored by successful businesswoman Lorraine Donnegan. Grantly and Maggie, soon to be married, are house parents to the kids who have come up from the old school, while Head Teacher Michael Byrne, Sian, Tom, Janeece and Chalky immerse themselves in the new school, pupils both new and old and all the challenges they bring with them. New teachers include the straitlaced Audrey McFall, and Christine Mulgrew, a semifunctioning alcoholic who wreaks havoc in the lives of all around her. New pupils include Christine's son and primary buffer Conor, who is constantly saved from veering off-track by new girl Imogen. However, even she is fated to fall victim to the dysfunctional Mulgrew mother/son relationship. With Head Teacher Michael having to face the ghosts of his past, young Scout suffering relentless bullying from new girl Rhiannon, and Tariq facing an uncertain future both physically and emotionally, a new look Waterloo Road gets off to a fiery start, building to a fiery and explosive finish.

The ultimate small-screen representation of Loaded-era lad culture--albeit a culture constantly being undermined by its usually sharper female counterpart--there seems little argument that Men Behaving Badly was one of 1990s' definitive sitcoms. Certainly the booze-oriented, birds-obsessed antics of Martin Clunes' Gary and Neil Morrissey's Tony have become every bit as connected to Britain's collective funny bone as Basil Fawlty's inept hostelry or Ernie Wise's short, hairy legs. Yet, the series could easily have been cancelled when ITV viewers failed to respond to the original version, which featured Clunes sharing his flat with someone named Dermot, played by Harry Enfield. Indeed, it was only when the third series moved to the BBC and was then broadcast in a post-watershed slot--allowing writer Simon Nye greater freedom to explore his characters' saucier ruminations--that the show began to gain a significant audience. By then, of course, Morrissey had become firmly ensconced on the collective pizza-stained sofa, while more screen time was allocated to the boys' respective foils, Caroline Quentin and Leslie Ash. Often glibly dismissed as a lame-brained succession of gags about sex and flatulence, the later series not only featured great performances and sharp-as-nails writing but also sported a contemporary attitude that dared to go where angels, and certainly most other sitcoms, feared to tread. Or, as Gary was once moved to comment about soft-porn lesbian epic Love in a Women's Prison: "It's a serious study of repressed sexuality in a pressure-cooker environment." Series 3 includes: "Lovers" in which Gary becomes worried that he hasn't slept with enough women; "Bed" in which Dorothy and Gary experience problems in the boudoir ("What's the matter? We always have sex after I've cooked for us. That's why I do it."); "Casual Ties" in which a depressed Deborah decides to sell her flat and go travelling, while Tony fails to cheer her up by impersonating different types of Cheese; "Weekend" in which Tony gets a job at The Crown; "Cleaning Lady" in which Tony reconsiders his professional options ("I could be an escort." "What, a car?" asks Gary); "Marriage" in which Gary joins Dorothy for a candlelit dinner ("Why she couldn't find a restaurant with proper lighting I don't know"). --Clark Collis
