Waterloo Road is back for series five and there are dozens of new cast members to meet... and scratch our heads over. There\'s a maniacal executive head and a future Doctor Who companion, to name just two. As ever, WR superfan Tom Beasley helps newbie Luke Stevenson navigate a playground broiling with imminent warfare.
