Waterloo Road series 17 has made fans’ wishes come true with Scarlett Thomas’ romantic storyline, with a kiss in the opening episode drawing ecstatic reactions online.
Thomas (the niece of Adam Thomas, who’s portrayed Donte Charles since the original series) plays Izzy, Donte’s daughter. She joined the cast for the show’s revival in 2023.
