The new season will follow Dani Osborne, a teacher played by former EastEnders (https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/eastenders/)
star Kara Tointon. She gets wrapped up in a murder conspiracy, one that threatens her marriage as well as her job.

he official synopsis reads (https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/a61911518/bbc-kin-fool-me-once-emmett-j-scanlan-the-teacher/): "The Teacher II follows the story of Dani, a teacher who loves her job. She's a real mentor and inspiration to her students, but what she lacks is a properly functioning marriage with real intimacy and mutual desire.

"This leads her into an impulsive affair with a fellow colleague that at first answers all her needs, but soon spirals out of control. When a pupil goes missing on a school trip, Dani rightly blames herself for being too easily distracted.

When things start to take a sinister turn, she is forced to lie and quickly finds her life falling to pieces. She risks everything to right the wrongs that she has, in part, been responsible for."

Now I know we all thought omfg why didn’t she clear her name and was a bit cheesy but I will be watching

Series 2 on channel 5 , looking forward to this and wondering which one of us will spot Pauline first and where will she be this time 🤔

We have missed Pauline

This starts tonight

Love Emmett

I love Emmett too.

To be fair, it is kind of her fault for leaving them all unsupervised 🤷🏻‍♀️

Totally her fault

I'm wondering if it's a simple case of drowning or whether there has been some foul play?

Oh don't tell me Emmett is playing another baddie?!

You think he took the pic ?

He usually does play baddies

Least the truth came out quickly

I'm thinking that Dani and Tim's marriage is not great. Dani is getting no passion from Tim hence the fling with Jimmy. Is Tim also looking elsewhere? Are we going to get inappropriate relationship with a student? Tim was looking at the photos of Zac in his office and it cut to Zac at the kayaks and looking up to see someone. Perhaps Tim was creeping about on the school trip and accidentally caught his wife at it with Jimmy and took the pic. Tim did ask Dani why Jimmy couldn't watch the kids whilst she popped to the toilet and with hindsight it's almost as if he knew exactly why Jimmy couldn't. Or Zac took the pic and told Tim.

Either way I'm currently suspecting that Tim was responsible for Zac's death. But surely it can't be that simple to work out. Maybe my imagination is in overdrive after watching too many of these dramas 🤣

I think the death was an accident

But if she wasn't shagging then wouldn't have happened

Def has issues with her marriage and that wasn't their first time !!!

Someone obv def took the pic

So was it someone who didn't hand their phone in

Or one of the lot vaping as she said about phones and vapes so one of the students could have taken it

Or was it hubby

On another point

Will m was just a dad - not a teacher is that right - as a helper

But surely the school would have sent more then one teacher for a school trip with lots of teens

I’ve just got home from dinner out and was wondering what to watch when I get into bed shortly, thought the first series was comical not helped by gormless Pauline behind that sodding curtain but also thought that last thing with Kara in as the cleaner was dire, didn’t it all unravel with the photo frame with the live playing video? Or am I confusing my terrible channel 5 dramas?! Anyway, I’ll give it a watch anyway!

I thought Jimmy was a teacher as well 🤷🏻‍♀️

I thought he was a teacher as well-his son (who I think had something to do with the death) just happened to be in the class.

Not at all accurate in terms of risk assessments, supervision etc on a school trip but mildly entertaining nonetheless!

Would adventure centres really leave unsecured kayaks near water when there's a load of teens about?

No matter how desperate you were would anyone really leave the kids they were responsible for to shag in the woods, surely you'd wait for lights out?

Serious lack of instructors and centre staff kicking about. I don't think teachers would be leading the activities would they.

Why doesn't someone tell Scanlan that his Elvis hair do is ridiculous?

Nice scenery though but that's about is for me so far. The sobbing over the body was weird too.

And they would absolutely have kept CPR going until ambulance staff/air ambulance turned up with experienced Drs, monitors etc. Probably longer as resuscitation is possible after cold water submersion. I don't think centre staff would give up and call it.

I know it's a only drama, but if they're going to include such disturbing scenes as a teen drowning they really should get it right.

Oh so both teachers

I missed that. Thought he was only a dad

So Both their fault then.

Why isn't he getting the blame as well

Where was he when she was originally with the pupils

She was stupid to leave students alone and shag daytime

Surely teachers have their own tent /room so he could have gone to her at night

She's maybe getting the blame as it was her group so she was directly responsible but what was he doing skulking round outhouses in the woods, where was his group?

Very silly of her to lie and tell the police she was only gone a few minutes. Obviously the kids would tell the police she was gone for much longer. And why did neither she nor the schoolgirl tell the police Zac had a knife?

I think Tim was there as he was scrubbing his shoes whilst supervising a PE lesson and looking at a photo of Zac ,was he having an affair with zac🤔

Yeah even if a pupil hadent died as a teacher on a school trip you would hope none of them would be daft enough to have a mid day shag ,in what looked like some kind of green house ,any of the pupils could have stumbled across them.

Yss plus he had flashbacks to walking through woods and as you say he was cleaning his boots, plus teacher said was he better as he'd skived with a migraine so yes he was there but why. I'm guessing to snoop on his wife whom he guessed was up to no good and maybe he had an altercation with the errant teen who accidentally fell and drowned.

@x2boys but then there would be no plot 😂

Tim and Zac - maybe
