What Fred said was uncalled for. “I wonder what hole you’ll end up in.”
I wonder if anyone told Fred about how people on the spectrum or people with ADHD react differently to others

[stevendavies]

Donte was really good and supportive here, because Donte has got a son who has got the same so he knows the signs and what it’s like, how to deal with it

[bradley]

this was an incredible scene, well done to everyone involved.

[nataliescott]

Amazing acting from the young lady could feel it building up for her the panic, the emotion, the anger, the distress very well done . It does show how out teachers really need better training it’s not being naughty, showing off, causing trouble it’s a person in real need of help . Is it fair that teachers have to be mental health care workers no but schools need to have a place people can go or someone to talk to straight away and not be on camhs waiting lists months or years for little help.

Wrote a Twitter thread on this in more detail already, but I've never seen my autism meltdown represented so accurately before so needed to reiterate here. Excellent job.

[abi-greenaway]

As someone with autism, this usually how my meltdowns look like the was the first time I felt seen in a mainstream tv show.

[Corrie]

This is an accurate adhd meltdown, I’m gonna start watching this now

[nicolegarrett]

An actress that will go very far. Brilliant performance

[o_blivian]

that visitor teacher and the staff teacher was just escalating it

[freddybonilla]

That girl had a mental breakdown
but what was really bothering her

[paigeprobert]

I feel for Kelly-Jo as I know what it is like to have ADHD and how it feels when you have a break down because people think thay know how it is or how it feels when inside your head you don't even understand your self so like Kelly-Jo she couldn't cope because it was to much for her to take in and bless her just exploded because people where thinking that she was just being naughty and silly when she couldn't find the way to calm down with people on top of her and her teacher not realising sooner that she was displaying signs of ADHD👧🏽😥😰😡😤

[Foebane]

It wasn't really Kelly Jo's fault, as that guy in the blue shirt mocked and antagonised her.

[declangaming]

Please can you bring back rimmer and treneman we need some of the older staff like them to help Kim run the school

[James_Doyle]

I'm glad she is getting help at the end I thought it be another janine from classic eastenders people keep having ago and then end up in hospital as I was really getting annoyed at first people kept having ago instead of supporting her but I'm glad she is getting supported now

[Mayah_Abelman]

was that donte that came in to comfort kelly?

[clementine]

I went to a small private school, many years ago, and if you spoke to a teacher the way some of these children do, you would have been in serious trouble. This is a genuine question, do school children really behave like this nowadays?. Does Waterloo reflect real school environments?.even factoring in that it's a drama

[thomasheyes]

off topic but I feel like I know that teacher from something and it's bothering me lol the one who sort of set her off

[saxsan]

I love Coral so much and Preston and Preston is SO HOT!!!! And Kai is great too

[ryanhills]

They should have brought Grantly back because this series isn’t canon to series 8 and 10 in Scotland

[MsTinkerbelle]

Donte has really became such a good bloke 🥹
