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

So Sienna is now dead. Who was Wolfy on her text?

Yes me too.

And the head teacher was studying Sienna's file in his office when Jimmy popped in for a chat. She's obviously a troubled vulnerable girl. Maybe head teacher killed Zac as Zac found out about him??

Christ, this series certainly has us lurching from one theory to the next.

I wondered who Wolfy was

Music at the end reminds me of Halloween and when Micheal myers is about

Can anyone tell me who the actor is playing the head teacher?

john nayagam

He was in blue lights I think

I agree head teacher got Sienna pregnant and killed her when he heard she was pregnant.

Dirty perve if it is him

I’m finding it really hard to get into and actually care about any of the characters. I’ll see it through though as I have a feeling it’s going to reach peak Pauline Behind the Curtain towards the end and I’m not missing that!

Think they struggle to flesh out the characters with any depth. I know Sienna is in care but all the other teenagers seem to be only children too as then they don’t have any siblings to have to add into the mix. All just feels a bit hollow.

Very smug I was correct about the drug thing 😂 I reckon Jimmy got Sienna pregnant. He seems the type who would prey on a vulnerable girl. He also seemed shocked when Dani asked if Matt and Sienna were seeing eachother - his response she was ‘ Matt?!’ Not ‘what’ 😂 I think Zac found out. He brought the knife to protect Sienna from the teacher. I also think Matt knows!

Couldn’t care less about any of the characters (is that the writing or the acting?) but I’m still watching just in case the final episode proves a bit more exciting

Writing, acting and also the contortions required of some of the actors to attempt to make their Irish accents (very badly in the case of the head!)

I like Will Mellor but I honestly think all three of the leads are pretty poor actors.

Interesting I thought maybe it was Tim that got Sienna pregnant ,he disappeared after leaving the pub and finding out she was pregnant but then the head teacher seemed shocked ,and Matt was stumbling around in the dark 🤔

This is borderline unwatchable, the teenage angst is so stereotypical. literally couldn't care about any of these characters. The police search of the house was laughable.

make=mask!

I don't think the dad is Timmy or jimmy 😂

It was! They looked in one drawer and under the table and said ‘alright, I think we’re done here for now’ 🤣

And I don’t know about anyone else but if I see a teenager being randomly sick I’ll assume hangover before rushing out to buy a pregnancy test 😅

And then casually throwing it away In the kitchen bin ,because no ones going to see it there 🙄
Also if you know your Dad regularly puts your clothes away in your bedroom drawers, surely you would think of a better hiding place for a knife 🤔

I’ve just caught up now. Few little niggles with it like the unrealistic lack of supervision on the trip, the head calling for the nurse as if all high schools have nurses just stationed there and the fact they’re totally fine with jimmy and inviting him to the pub even though he was also shagging on the school trip. I’m also not really invested in any of the characters and don’t actually care who is guilty but am going to keep on going, there may be a hidden gem like Pauline and her curtain in the end

Jimmy looks more and more dodgy with each episode.

That wine rack in Jimmy's kitchen is in an odd place on the island where anyone could knock it flying.

What did the text message say please? I missed it!!

sienna’s school friend to Dany

’She was pregnant ?!’

’What you didn’t know ??’

NO OF FUCKING COURSE SHE DIDN’T Sienna herself didn’t know until five hours before she ended up dead because you made her take a test in your bloody kitchen then you spilled the beans to the headteacher in the pub 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 Christ what a way to keep a secret

Think it said, I love you, I need to see you
