As a Prisoner fan and from what I can see, parts of the set don’t look the same, so it must be a mixture of old parts of the set and new replacements for the set. 😃
Magda had Doreen down to a T. Mannerisms and voice and all. But I don't like how they played Bea at all, the character was wrong and Val wasn't fat. Jane did pretty good with Lizzie aswell All over though it was pretty funny, and well done
Bless you for uploading; when australian comedy was at its peak. It’s all PC and unfunny now. Need I mention dad’s google history it’s bloody dad’s google history
Classic Aussy tv Cell Block H.. tv past midnight here in the UK was practically unheard on in the mid 80s unless it was BBC 2 and the Open University late night programs.. Cell Block H must have been one the early programs they showed later at night from the mid eighties onwards on ITV or Channel 4, i cant quite remember which channel.. either way it was bloody awful but I loved it at the time.. I think it must have been about that time Neighbours appeared on daytime tv..oh, those teenage years...Vinegar tits....lol....
Well I don't "go" with anything. And it was in uppercase to emphasize what you thought was the word "porn". And I still doubt you're a real Australian.
Jane Turner played a blind character in the real Prisoner
Gina Riley has a great singing voice & is a very talented comedian.
she does. i hate how she sings the kath and kim theme song.. her daughter is now doing "Muriel's wedding, the musical."
@@lisettecallis5329 Aww I like it. It's her Shirley Bassey style.
"Leave me alone, you big fat bitch!" Haha! The impersonation of Doreen is spot on.
"Aww Bea I'm the only one ugly enough to make you look good"😂🤣
Magda's Doreen is uncanny!
Turner, Riley and Magda need a cameo on new Wentworth
Jane would have been a good Helen Smart
And Magda would have pulled of Myra Desmond with flying colours
Fast forward was a bloody brilliant show
Jane Turner was actually in Prisoner!
That's right - she played a blind prisoner.
Belinda Johns
MiddyOil And Glenn Robbins (Kel Knight) appeared in Prisoner as well in the same era as Jane Turner, but their characters didn't cross paths sadly. 😃
Belinda, I think she played the role very well.
Yeah I remember that, she played a blind woman
The bloopers must have been friggin hilarious!
Jane Turner was in Prisoner as the blind inmate who tried to kill Sonia. Peter Moon was in an episode as well
“Will you shut your fat arse! Am starving!!”
Hilarious
Years later, Magda would do an advertising campaign for Jenny Craig.
Red Oz She quit Jenny Craig because she missed real food too much
Turner was the blind woman in cell block h
They're wearing the real uniforms!
What a shame Fast Forward isn’t still around to do their version of Wentworth 🏢
That was too funny and the actresses portrayal of Lizzie, Bea, Doreen, and The Freak were definitely spot on 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣!!!!
I love it when they're all been thrown into the lockers by the freak, haven't laughed so hard in years.
Farrrrrk!
Even after all these years I got a laugh !!
this is excellent very rare now thank you
Magda really sounds like Doreen and Jane Turner sounds very similar to Lizzie.
Jane Turner makes a good Lizzie
Top notch impersonation.
Lol she does!
Moony and Veitch are legends and the ladies
Love the posh actress-y accents!! Especially accurate for Val Lehman! 😉
Sheila Florance was very posh in real life.
@@brettrainbow6040 she was indeed!
This gets me Everytime🤣😂. The actors got the characters right on point!👌
Rest in Peace Lizzy
She passed a few years back.
as for Val (Bee Smith, Top Dog) She's still alive, i spoke to her a few years back.
This was hilarious.
Brilliant
Better quality acting than the original
These were some of the funniest skits on FF.
The sets are very authentic!
its the actual set.
@@stanlyqbrick1621 fab!

Jane did pretty good with Lizzie aswell
All over though it was pretty funny, and well done
She was playing her like Val Lehman - and it was pretty accurrate
Not in the least like her.
She wasn't fat, a bully, butch, unnesecarily violent, hateful or mean to her friends
@@angelika_munkastrap4634 I was talking about her "grandness"
Gina Riley has a fabulous voice
h chair is lower case and the top of chair leans forward to the right and the seat of the chair is a square
My father never liked Prisoner. I have watched it recently and I can understand why. It was so dark.
Omg, brilliant 😂
Isn't Gina's breastless character REVOLTING 🤣🤣🤣
Just Love Lizzie ! Better than the real one LoL
Jane Turner brilliant talk about bad hair day
Hilarious 😂
Hilarious
Magda sounds just like Boomer on Wentworth 🤣
No she sounds like Doreen, the character she's playing.
Boomer is nothing like Doreen. Besides Boomer is based off Alice (Lurch) Jenkins from Prisoner
2.02 “sold us off to a private company ” which company? 😭
1:32.🤣🤣🤣
Wouldn't get away with that today
Comedy dying .. can’t do this now .. loved 70’s - 99

Ironically Magda is leading the pc charge !
“shave your legs with a brick” 😂 whos drinking brussel sprout roots? Pink or yellow?

Trying to follow people that you actors get something..

Aired on the ITV network (late 1984-1999). Each of the 14 ITV regions screened it at their own pace.
Not as funny as I hoped it would be, from the talents of Turner/Riley/Szubanski, but still a good parody
Yeah I don't get a lot of the references.
Why do they have pom accents at the start
its part of the sketch,that in real life the actors are posh compared to their roles in prisoner..thats why they had the accent
POM, not porn. Pom is Australian vernacular for a British person.
Well actually no, its spelled Pom. It isn't a formal word and you're clearly not Australian.
Well I don't "go" with anything. And it was in uppercase to emphasize what you thought was the word "porn". And I still doubt you're a real Australian.
They have British accents at the start because Britain is the birthplace of the pom industry.
To think I used to watch this rubbish and enjoy it how times have changed
OH SHIT...FROM AMERICA, WITH LOVE..SO SPOT ON..USA NETWORK, 1982...SO FECKING FUNNY
