WATERLOO ROAD TUESDAY, 8PM, BBC1 DRAMA

Hattie Dynevor is excited that her role in BBC1's school-set drama Waterloo Road marks her TV debut, especially as it's the same show that launched her big sister Phoebe's career.

Daughters of Coronation Street favourite Sally Dynevor, Bridgerton star Phoebe Dynevor played series-five student Siobhan Mailey (2009-2010), while Hattie joined the cast as pupil Libby Guthrie when the gates opened for a 13th season earlier this month.

On screen, Libby has already caused a stir after turning up unannounced at the Greater Manchester secondary school to the surprise of her history teacher father Neil Guthrie (played by Neil Fitzmaurice) and, in this week's third episode, viewers are set to learn more about her backstory.
