Award-winning TV drama Waterloo Road is to move from Rochdale to Scotland, the BBC announced today.
It is the end of an era for the show which is now filming its seventh series at the former Hill Top Primary School in Kirkholt.
And it means an uncertain future for stars of the hit BBC1 series with some now facing their final term on screen.
The drama will re-locate in April next year to a new base as part of the BBC’s move to increase network programming from Scotland.
Viewers will see a ‘dramatic and explosive’ storyline played out on screen in early 2012 with the final Rochdale episodes to be filmed this October.
It will result in a number of current teachers and pupils setting up a new school in Scotland, which will also adopt the Waterloo Road name.
It is not yet known how the writers will explain the move. But some familiar faces will leave the TV school which has been a launch pad for young actors and actresses, many of them from Manchester and the north west
