Were you familiar with it being shown on "It'll Be Alright On The Night"? I saw that outtake before I ever watched Prisoner, so "What a ridiculous way to earn a living" was the first thing I heard Elspeth Ballantyne say!
Amy Kjorlien In reality, the guy who played Len Murphy (Maurie Fields) truly was a genuine gentleman and a real Aussie larakin. He was married to a lovely lady by the name of Val Jellay. They met each other on the vaudeville circuit and stayed married for about 35 yrs until he sadly passed away in 1995. They were both great Australian personalities/celebrities. You could look up Maurie Fields videos on UA-cam from when he used to have a segment on a variety show called 'Hey Hey it's Saturday', where he told some really funny jokes. He truly was a great man.
I believe that was deliberate. I heard there were times when minor mistakes would be kept in for the sake of time/money, so if the actors knew they had messed up and wanted to be sure that the scene would be re-shot, they'd chuck in the F word so that they HAD to reshoot it!
@@derekhorne8076 But beautiful Val Lehman did make a genuine mistake and messed the line to start with so it was a real blooper. Just she apparently threw in the f word just to triply make sure they did not use the great outtake. Lehman is so beautiful she is great in everything she does!
Betty Bobbit said in her book that Ellie Ballantyne got the giggles all the time, That she would be laughing so hard that tears would stream down her face. Ans once she started laughing it took a long time for her to stop.
Sheri451 lol...well that scene was certainly one of those times! I know what that's like...to laugh so hard you can't quit. I thought I heard it would happen to Fiona sometimes as well
@@amykjorlien326 Yes, the actresses who played Meg and Vera were the worst gigglers of the bunch so I've been told. They usually have to be so serious it's fun to watch them crack up in their scenes!
meg i'm sorry but i forgot what i have 2 say and that is the funniest and lewis murphy is not right but len murphy is right and the others r funny as well
Oh boo hoo. I hear worse on the street, coming out of some kids mouth nowadays. It's not as if they all swore everytime they stuffed up. So just calm ya farm, Steve, you precious petal. 😜
And not all Aussies "love" to swear. I'm an Aussie and I never swear around children, the elderly and strangers I don't know. But when I'm at home or around close friends, I have no problem with dropping an F-bomb or even use the c word occasionally. Heck, some Aussies call their own mate the c word in a jovial manner. So it's not that unusual for some Aussies. Not unless you are too pretentious and soft.
What gets me is that these are supposed to be 'Thespians darling' and yet when they make a mistake the 'F word' comes up time and time again, obviously not got the level of English that one assumes from these 'actor/actresses types'!
Time and time again? No need to be so overdramatic, Adele. 😂 It was only a couple of times, maybe three. It wasn't as if they all used such language every single time they stuffed up, for goodness sake.
I just saw the scene where Vera, Fletch, Greg, and Meg were all sitting at the table and burst out laughing...Fiona is adorable there!
Totally agree with you , just love Vera
"Prisoner" is my favorite show and I wanted to thank you for the bloopers upload. It was hilarious and I really enjoyed it ....Cheers....Jeff
I LOVE THESE BLOOPERS SO MUCH. This show was so far ahead of its time.
It's the first time I've ever heard Bea say fuck
Meg made the funniest racket when Doreen was feeding her. I laughed until I cried.
"Do you have a light"
not any more. lol
its lovely to see both Fiona Spence and Patsy King in stitches when Patsy fluffs on bribery
poida she did!? awwww! love that! I love hearing Fiona laugh! she has a great laugh!
i agree and lovely to see fiona laugh
ok the woman who played Nolene was hilarious...and swore a blue streak..which made it all the funnier.
Good on ya Les 🤣 can’t stop laughing at that for some reason
oh god wish they had more they are so fun to watch
1:25....watch Fiona...She totally cackles...love to see her smile and laugh!
When I eventually saw that episode with Dor feeding Meg I couldn’t help but laugh knowing what happened in between takes 😂
Were you familiar with it being shown on "It'll Be Alright On The Night"? I saw that outtake before I ever watched Prisoner, so "What a ridiculous way to earn a living" was the first thing I heard Elspeth Ballantyne say!
"geez you're a fuckwit Terry" - LOL
ohhh how I would love more outtakes...does anyone have any more? and I would love to see Fiona's face when Terry says..."pissed again"
patsy kings smile!! she has such a lovely smile it makes her look younger!!!
I like hearing her real accent!
Thank you so much for putting this up, i loved the show from day one.. and this has just had me in stitches laughing ..
I can't get over these thank you so much for sharing my god they had so much fun on set :)
Great to see these clips, some I hadn't seen before.
Omg this was so entertaining to watch. I loved it. Thanks for sharing. The best parts were when they dropped the F bomb! Lmao awesome!
Dark show thats so loved by all. I remember Mum watching when I was a kid but the thing I remember most where the credits and that song
He used to bring me roses,,,
Too funny, thanks for putting it together!
ok the man who played Len Murphy looks like he'd be a pretty sweet man...just the way he had that impish grin when the guy kept messing up his name!

He truly was a great man.
He played nice guys on the show. He was Judy's Uncle-In-Law and was a friend of Faye Quinn, who was very nice as well..
@@markxxx21
His character wasn't always so nice in Prisoner, though.
@@ozlass7778 Aww I love Maurie Fields and loved tuning in to Hey Hey to see him and Shane Bourne doing 'The Great Aussie Joke'. Classic.
I loved Les ...Hilarious ...and meg choking ...funniest yet ..saw that years ago on ITV ..makes me laugh every time ..
Thanks for sharing Rob. There's a few gems in there that I hadn't seen.
glad you liked them adam
The reason the Les Len part is so funny is because the lady who played Joyce Barry stays in character and says “congratulations Les” 😂
Love seeing bloopers
HAHAHA! Never heard a Prisoner F-BOMB before!
I believe that was deliberate. I heard there were times when minor mistakes would be kept in for the sake of time/money, so if the actors knew they had messed up and wanted to be sure that the scene would be re-shot, they'd chuck in the F word so that they HAD to reshoot it!
I'm sure Aunty Ida said the F-word once and they kept it in! Good ol' Ide!!
@@derekhorne8076 But beautiful Val Lehman did make a genuine mistake and messed the line to start with so it was a real blooper. Just she apparently threw in the f word just to triply make sure they did not use the great outtake. Lehman is so beautiful she is great in everything she does!
ooh Fletch's lallies - LOVELY!
prisoner is one of my favourite shows too very funny would love to see more
"What a R I D I C U L O U S way to earn a living!" 🤣
Damn, they had a big problem with mics showing, sometimes they're even visible in the actual episode
Omg judy has gave me second hand embarrassment 😳😂
2:38 "Geez you're a fuckwit terry"
cheers made me laugh so much

The Meg and Doreen one was a bloody good one lol
I love hearing the swearing 😂😂😂
Feels weird hearing bea swear 😂
80s facial hair rules lol
4:12...need I say more....goood stuff
The old prisoner is 10 times better than the new one
and last question...who is the guy at the end with Patsy?
Forgot about this
silly question...what's funny when Meg goes in to Erica's office...does she just say the line too quickly or mention the wrong name?
mentions the wrong name. calls doreen, david anderson
Patsy King can't say bribery
brilliant
2:46 Terry F*ckwitt.
4:17 and I thought Judy was supposed to be a lesbian
That was too funny 😂
3:03 what happened there🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
*she REALLY needs a light now* 1:28

Live take?
+Fook Utube what is the question?
What a foul mouthed bunch!
+Steve20127 Aussies are well known for their love of swearing!!

Fucken Terrible eh?
@@shortangel333 absofuckinglutely awful - I love it :)
What gets me is that these are supposed to be 'Thespians darling' and yet when they make a mistake the 'F word' comes up time and time again, obviously not got the level of English that one assumes from these 'actor/actresses types'!
Apparently they would swear badly or Grundys would use the take! So the actors didn't want us to get rubbish.
Time and time again?
No need to be so overdramatic, Adele. 😂
It was only a couple of times, maybe three. It wasn't as if they all used such language every single time they stuffed up, for goodness sake.
Good god get a sense of humour down ya it costs nothing jeez 🤣🤣
