HOW DO YOU CREATE A BORDER ON PHOTOSHOP?

The easiest method to add a simple border is by using the ‘stroke' command in Photoshop. To do this, begin by selecting the entire photo (Select>>All), then choosing the stroke command (Edit>>Stroke). You'll be asked to choose how wide you want the border to be in pixels, as well as what colour. The more pixels, the wider the border will be.

Using a different blend mode can yield interesting effects. For instance, by using "soft light" with a navy blue colour, you will be able to create a border that still shows the photo underneath.

Waterloo road is shown at 8pm which means it lasts an hour before the watershed at 9. This proves its a series of which younger viewers can watch as well as adults too.
I think the characters appealed to the youth of today that still go to school and sometimes go through struggles because of it. This makes the cast relatable to a young audience but also gives adults another perspective of school life at its worst. 
I Think they designed the waterloo road logo like this because it looks like school desks being shoved together, which has an association with the theme of the series (a school).
