Watch The Teacher season 2 online

Idealistic teacher Dani (Kara Tointon) prides herself on setting an example, but temptation rears its head on a school trip. Stuck in a marital rut, impulse conquers guilt when colleague Jimmy (Will Mellor) makes his intentions known, and as they're in the throes of passion a catastrophe is unfolding outside. Here's where to watch The Teacher season 2 online for free – from anywhere.

Rare act of rebellion as it is, tragic justice dictates that Dani's extramarital indiscretion should have life-altering consequences, and sure enough, the case of a missing student escalates into one of murder. Both Dani and Jimmy are feeling the heat, not only because they left the children unsupervised, but also because Dani's husband Tim (Emmett J Scanlan) also happens to be Jimmy's best friend. 

Shrugging off responsibility comes easier to Jimmy than it does to Dani, and he succeeds in dragging her down to his level, in part to save embarrassment and keep Tim in the dark, but most of all to protect Jimmy and his trouble-making son, Matt.

The first season, which starred Sheridan Smith as a teacher accused of sleeping with one of her students, was a discomfiting, thought-provoking straight-up smash hit, and so The Teacher has been given a new lease of life as an anthology series. 

Read on as we explain how to watch The Teacher season 2 from anywhere in the world.
