A new series of the school-based drama returned to BBC One on Tuesday evening as comedian Jason Manford made his debut.
The return of Waterloo Road to BBC One has seen the introduction of fresh faces that fans are eager to engage with, and among them is Steve Savage, portrayed by Jason Manford, stepping into the role as the new head teacher of the eponymous school.
An especially eager fan who watched the full series available on BBC iPlayer confessed: "Finished the whole series! On the edge of my seat! Incredible and @jasonmanford is awesome," complete with a heart eyes emoji, reports the Mirror. However, Steve presents everything with a laugh and a smile, which gives him a Jekyll and Hyde persona that keeps people guessing.
He added: "It was funny, really, because my kids started watching it during lockdown on iPlayer, and I was sort of half watching it and then suddenly you start fully watching it and then it turns out it wasn't just me, it wasn't just us, it was millions of people."
