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

She plays the same 1 dimensional woman in everything, same as that Too Good To Be True. Wont be watching this though cos I cant stand Mr In Love With Himself rat face Mellor.

I don’t think she did put him on the canoe, I think they just pushed the canoe out to make it look like he had taken it out.

However, why didn’t the other teacher notice Sienna missing during the group session?

—I think Tim took the photo
-I assumed Dani was suspended as she was the one in charge of that specific group (doesn’t explain why Dani & the other teacher had a group but Jimmy didn’t).
— No idea how she got him in the lake, unless Jimmy did it while Dani was looking for her group, also no idea how no one noticed Sienna missing from the other group.

What is this a new season? Yay

Yes s2

Finished now

Did Sienna definitely kill him? I half watched some episodes so probably missed that explanation.

I have to say, for all its plotholes etc, I actually really enjoyed all the twists etc. We all thought we had it sussed, yet every episode had a twist that proved us wrong

I agree. But I think that's what made it all the more confusing with too many loopholes.

I actually thought Jimmy was the nicest and most normal of all the adults, until nearly the last episode 🤦‍♀️

Yes she walloped him over the head

Tho not sure how she didn't get wet

Not no one said she was missing for a long time

Or why jimmy didn't lose his job as was shagging

But she did

The head teacher said the only reason that Jimmy was still in his job was because 2 other teachers were suspended. Dani and then Tim when he was arrested for murder. The head said he couldn't afford to lose another member of staff but that he wasn't happy with him.

Irish guy should have been called Jimmy, and the English bloke Tim! So that confused me right from the off.
I just can't get on board with Kara Tointon as an actress. She has a sort of pinched look to her face that annoys me no end.
I quite enjoyed this, even if you did have to suspend disbelief. Such as the oldest looking Year 11s in the history of mankind. Must have been a hard paper round indeed

I have never seen a drama set in a school that got it right.

For sure. I work in a secondary school, and the water features outside this school is the biggest no no you can imagine I can only imagine the levels of pissing about that there would be.

I hooted out loud with laughter when the reading at the vigil included 'loved to see you dabbing everywhere!'

Totally other subject but when was it meant to be set? All the furniture in the houses were like the 90s but then they all had iPhones / iPads and new cars?!

I get annoyed at the way it shows teachers and students arriving and leaving at the same time. No way! I’m another one who is no fan of Kara Tointon. We are only on episode 3, but I’m confused as to why Tim was arrested. I don’t know what information the police had, because he had the boy’s phone with the messages. If I’d been Dani, I would have gone to the police with the Sat Nav info and the deleted email and I certainly wouldn’t have gone round to the boy’s mother and asked to help her sort out his things. I would have been hiding away after the photo was made public and would certainly have felt guilty about his death.

still got the next 2 episodes to go tonight and will plough through them! Looking forward, in a Channel 5 way, to The Wives tonight. My OH gets Sally Lindsey and Jo Joyner mixed up. It confused him no end when they both appeared in the same programme!

Me too 😆😆 As if 😆

Yes and she gurns too. A bit like Daniela Westbrook did (before her nasal issues)

All the teens were in their 20's

I know! Jimmy's house was particularly old-fashioned.

Im not reading these pages because I’m on episode one.
The school doesn’t look like it’s in the UK.. plus the lake / water feature so close to the school?
I don’t think the health and safety here in this country would ever allow that ?

It was filmed in Ireland.

The water feature made me wonder if they were using HE buildings perhaps.

Yep. The worst acting ever too 🤣🙈

I skipped episode 4. What were the texts from Zac and Tim?

Made me laugh how both Danni and Jimmy were allowed to go in and out of school whenever they liked.

Another shit channel 5 series.

I'm not even going to try watching the wives thing.

@lololulu wives is fab. Do join us
