The BBC has shown serious commitment to teen drama Waterloo Road by putting in a double-series order.
Returning earlier this year after eight years off air, the show’s second season has already been filmed, meaning that three new seasons are now on their way. Rope Ladder Fiction and Wall to Wall North produce Waterloo Road out of Manchester.
The show follows goings-on in a school in the north of England and was a huge hit between 2006 and 2015, before old episodes began amassing big numbers on iPlayer during lockdown. The BBC said Waterloo Road remains especially popular on iPlayer, where it is in the top three most-watched titles of the year so far for 16-34 year olds, alongside Happy Valley and EastEnders. Double-series orders are rare at the BBC and tend to be reserved for long runners such as Call the Midwife and Death in Paradise.

Wall to Wall to make Woman in Red for BBC2.
The scandal surrounding 18th century aristocrat Lady Seymour Worsley is to be turned into a one-off docu-drama produced by Wall to Wall for BBC2.
Woman in Red follows Sienna Miller-fronted The Girl, which explored the relationship between Alfred Hitchcock and Tippi Hedren, and was the last large scale factual drama produced by the Warner Bros-owned indie.
The screenplay, penned by David Eldridge, tells the story of Lady Seymour Worsley, who left her husband and eloped with his best friend.
Lady Worseley, played by Natalie Dormer (Game of Thrones, The Hunger Games), subsequently becomes the subject of a high-profile court case brought against her by her shamed husband, played by Cilla star Aneurin Barnard.
The 90-minute drama is based on Hallie Rubenhold’s book Lady Worsley’s Whim, originally inspired by a painting of Lady Worsley which hangs in a stately home in Yorkshire.

After weeks of speculation, BBC Controller Danny Cohen has announced that The Voice will make its UK debut on the channel next year.
The Us version of the reality TV show, currently taking America by storm with it’s celebrity mentors Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton, first aired on NBC in April this year to 12m viewers and great critical acclaim. Viewing figures have been steadily rising and the show certainly put up a good fight against rival singing show American Idol. The Voice has proved so successful in The States that a second series has already been commissioned by the Us TV network.
Danny Cohen, who reached the agreement with the show’s creator John de Mol yesterday, says: “I’m absolutely delighted that The Voice will be coming to the BBC. It’s a big, exciting and warm-hearted series and will be a...
