When will 'Waterloo Road' be back?

There's lots of speculation about Waterloo Road's seventh series flying around at the moment, with rumours suggesting that the school drama could be back on screen next month, rather than autumn as originally expected.

Robson Green, who has joined the programme in the role of newcomer Rob Scotcher, recently set tongues wagging among fans by tweeting that Waterloo Road will return to BBC One on May 4. That would mean the show coming back less than a month after last night's series six finale.

A BBC spokesperson yesterday told DS that a return date for Waterloo Road has not yet been finalised, but confirmed that the show will be back "at some point in the spring", meaning that fans won't have to wait until autumn for the next series.
