Role in the Series[]

In Series 1, Lewis was voted house captain, but was removed from this position after deputy head Andrew Treneman discovered that he had been bribing fellow house members to do his homework in order to get better grades. He gained revenge on Andrew by throwing a brick through a window, gashing his head; Andrew, Kim, and Jack were convinced that Lewis was the attacker but were unable to discipline him because there were no witnesses. But seeming it was obviously him, Kim had given him a good bare bottom spanking, and no-one believed him when he said this had happened, including his mum: thus Lewis undoubtedly wishes to get his own back on Kim.

Lewis ended up in the cooler after a tirade of homophobic bullying towards homosexual pupil Rory Brears, which culminated in Lewis headbutting him in front of several teachers.

After leaving the school, he broke in one evening and knocked Jack out with a fire extinguisher and was ready to burn him alive. Steph Haydock foiled his attack with water from another fire extinguisher. In Series 2, it is revealed that he had received an Anti-Social Behaviour Order for this assault.

Lewis was expelled from Waterloo Road after he sexually harassed Kim Campbell. The expulsion was reduced to a 15-day suspension on appeal, but his mother decided to withdraw him from school after they received hate mail from angry pupils and parents. Headmaster Jack Rimmer learnt that Mrs Seddon was committing benefit fraud; he threatened to report her to the police unless she removed Lewis from Waterloo Road.

Lewis returned in Series 2. It was revealed he was in a relationship with drug addict and former pupil Maxine Barlow. As part of his rehabilitation, he found a job working in a local restaurant where teachers, including Steph Haydock and Grantly Budgen, were among the regular customers.

Later, Lewis started up a burger van business with his aunt Gemma Seddon and cousin Jed, which proved unpopular with Mr. Rimmer. They secretly sold drugs to the pupils of Waterloo Road using this business.

In the final episode of Series 2, Lewis spiked Chlo Grainger's drink at her 16th birthday party. Lewis informed the police of Jed and his aunt's drug lab, which led to Gem being arrested for drug dealing. Jed wasn't in the house when Gem was arrested, and that evening when he arrived at the school to confront Jack Rimmer, a fistfight broke out between the two until Jed pulled out a knife; Izzie Redpath ran onto Jed's knife and later died. It was never revealed whether Jed was charged in connection with the killing.

Series 3[]

Lewis returned to Waterloo Road, working in the school kitchen in order to repay his debt to society. He helped find autistic pupil Karla Bentham after she'd seemingly escaped from school grounds after slapping Steph Haydock. Lewis found her hiding behind the school shed, and was surprisingly understanding towards her, although he did mispronounce her condition as "Asparagus Syndrome".

During an archaeological dig, the remains of a baby's corpse was found by Karla and Janeece. Once the new head, Miss Mason, found out, she immediately contacted the police. An investigation kicks off and Steph must interview each girl at Waterloo Road who has been to the school nurse with sexual health problems. In the end Maxine admits to Janeece that the baby was in fact hers, and had been stillborn. Baby Charlotte was buried by Maxine and was fathered by Lewis Seddon. Lewis blamed himself for the death of his and Maxine's daughter.

Off-screen, Lewis left Waterloo Road.
