Sheridan Smith drama follow-up confirms release date with new lead

BBG News

Oh, the anticipation is palpable! As a long-time devotee of gripping dramas that leave me on the edge of my seat, I must say, the return of “The Teacher” is an event I’ve been eagerly awaiting. The first season was a rollercoaster ride of emotions, and with the stellar cast lined up for season 2, it promises to be even more enthralling!

Channel 5 has confirmed the air dates for season 2 of The Teacher — and it’s not far off.

Beginning Monday, September 9th, the miniseries that premiered in 2022 featuring Sheridan Smith as a teacher embroiled in a scandal involving a 15-year-old student will feature a different main character.

The upcoming season focuses on Dani Osborne, portrayed by ex-star of “EastEnders”, Kara Tointon. However, she finds herself ensnared in a complex murder plot, which not only jeopardizes her professional life but also puts her marriage at risk.

For season 2, two actors previously seen on soap operas have been added to the cast: Emmett J Scanlan from “Hollyoaks,” who has also appeared in “Kin” and “Fool Me Once”; and Will Mellor from “Coronation Street,” known for “Mr Bates vs the Post Office” and “Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps.” Emmett will portray Dani’s husband, while Will takes on the role of Jimmy, another teacher.

Season 2 will follow season 1’s lead, with all four episodes airing nightly over the same week.

In simpler terms, the movie titled “The Teacher II” delves into the life of Dani, a dedicated teacher who finds joy in her profession. She’s not just a mentor, but a beacon of inspiration for her students. However, her marriage seems to be lacking in genuine intimacy and shared desire.

This situation propels her into a spontaneous relationship with a coworker who initially fulfills her desires, but eventually gets out of hand. When a student vanishes during a field trip, Dani justifiably feels guilty for being too quickly diverted from her duties.

As ominous circumstances unfold, she’s compelled to deceive and soon watches her life disintegrate. In a desperate bid to rectify the mistakes she partially contributed to, she puts everything on the line.

In case you want a refresher about the events from season 1, here’s a handy summary for you.

The Teacher season 2 begins on September 9 on Channel 5 and will stream on My5.
