Waterloo Road Rocked By Alcohol Poisoning Scandal!

👉 SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE: bit.ly/WaterlooRoad
Danielle and Aleesha come to school hungover, and to help out their hangovers Paul steals ethanol and makes a 'hair of the dog' cocktail to help Danielle feel better. Paul and Bolton see an easy way to make money and start selling the ethanol to other students. Rachel soon uncovers their scam but it’s too late for barely conscious Danielle, who is rushed off to hospital by a frantic Steph.

Can't believe they let a student turn up to lesson. Like that.

[@suertesamp]

This is kind of the science teachers fault. Why was Paul allowed access to a cupboard with ethannol in it anway

[@Foebane72]

I know! The Ethanol, a poisonous substance, was kept in the same unlocked cupboard as retort stands and things like that! That chemistry teacher should've been reprimanded for that!

[@10bencook]

The ethanol should have been placed somewhere else.

[@brandonhealy7158]

It’s not the science teachers fault? We were trusted with ethanol in school, and the ethanol in this programme was in a cupboard far away from everything else. How was the teacher supposed to know this could happen.

its not locked up at my place

[@Foebane72]

Paul's biggest mistake that endangered a fellow pupil, Danielle. Bolton had the idea of "hair of the dog" but it was Paul, probably reading about it off the internet, who thought that Ethanol was simply drinking alcohol by a different name and thus gave some to Danielle, unwittingly putting her health at extreme risk, if not her life. Worse still, he seems to be under the impression that he's doing nothing wrong when even Bolton's bailing from selling the stuff to more pupils.

[@suertesamp]

Interesting analysis 🧐

[@sukhdevr3489]

Supply and demand init? That was a funny comment, it's like he was trying to make Tyler mad.

[@Alphoric]

Yes all drinking alcohol is ethanol and if they just diluted it more than that and it was pure ethanol they would have been fine. If it wasn’t pure ethanol (which is wasn’t) then it wasn’t the ethanol itself that could cause actual damage but the additives added to make them not drinkable.

[@Foebane72]

@@Alphoric That's it, the additives, they deliberately make it unpleasant, as shown by Paul's, Bolton's and Rachel's reactions to drinking and smelling it. But Danielle had drunk far too much the night before and she guzzled it down like pop in the school lab, like she didn't care.

[@Foebane72]

4:40 I like drunk Danielle's little "cat yowl" sound there.

[@Foebane72]

9:23 When Max called out Grantly, I wonder what he was listening to on his earphone? The horse racing, perhaps...(?) :)

[@theanonymouscritic1710]

Quite possibly. He would.

I wish Miss Mason was back! :(

I’d like a bird like Mason

[@hearmeoutbro]

If Sam hadn’t of hidden the bottle behind her back then Rachel probably wouldn’t have suspected anything.

[@gavinmartin5151]

Well Rachel would have suspected something anyway because a lot of people from that school would have fell ill from drinking Ethanol . even though one fell ill and Rachel and Max would have known anyway also

[@hearmeoutbro]

@@gavinmartin5151 Eventually yes

[@gavinmartin5151]

@@hearmeoutbro i agree

[@theanonymouscritic1710]

I thought Aleesha and Danielle were supposed to be smart. Jack Rimmer lost his job for those two!

[@gmont28]

Mead most be deaf not hearing them in his class 😂

[@Elliotgh2]

The man pressed the glass on the fulleon call point at 8:05

[@Foebane72]

One thing I just noticed: Bolton nor Paul have taken off their outside jackets in class! Good for them! I was doing that back in the early 1990s, keeping my coat/jacket on in class and the lecturer kept complaining, but I ignored him!

[@driving_all_over]

I wonder how many real schools this happened at!
Closest that happened with mine was a student drinking copper sulphate in a lesson 😬

[@Foebane72]

What happened to them?

[@Elliotgh2]

The fire alarm terrified me

[@IvanIV05]

At least it wasn't methanol.

[@owntmpsn]

And two schools actually copied this

[@everyone06]

It was in the Birmingham area. Walsall I think.

[@spritly4290]

Which schools

[@allykins1767]

This is the worst school in the history of schools.

[@user-hq9yo4pn5y]

Its not real

[@Animeguy300]

It's Paul's fault for not supervising

[@sienna_queen]

What season and what episode?

[@liammcallister5850]

It's Series 5 Episode 3

[@sienna_queen]

@@liammcallister5850 oh thank you :)

[@oliverbaugh-jones2262]

Does everyone in this school drink the same drink?

[@KenzalOneill-vm8tp]

Daniella Harker came into school absolutely drunk and miss Steph. Haydock is not happy with Danielle.

[@thecapn5928]

Jesse, we need to brew

[@LuckyButterfly318]

This wasnt the kids fault. This was mrs haddock; head of pastoral care. Sees ths girl drunk then drunker leaves her in a closet. These days shed be fired.

[@robynstuart5474]

This is bad young kids should not be drinking
