Noeline was a fantastic and quirky character,who although Skinny could pack a punch,she was a consummate stirrer and troublemaker but mixec with a great comic touch,shame she only appeared in the early years,that's when the characters were most interesting,her Family made the Beverley Hillbillies look refined,Noeline was the brains in the family,but she suffered tragedy as well losing her Daughter LeeAnne and her brother,she made an unlikable character likable,shame we never saw much interaction between her and Karen Travers the only Prisoner Noeline appeared to like.A great performance by a fun and great actress.
Tremendous character and actress. In comparison to the later years, the earlier eps were filled with more diverse and interesting inmates all of whom you could believe would have ended up behind bars. Final characters such as Spike, Brumby and Lisa were too middle of the road and not so flawed and complex.
Yes the early eps did have some interesting inmates the only problem was they were never in it long enough compared to the later eps. One of my favourites was Toni Mcnally, her stint was way too short and very much wasted imo.
@@gyobfan22 realise Toni got killed off so not a possibility however would have been great and realistic to see some of the early minor characters brought back in the later series. There would be repeat offenders in a real prison.
@@Ostine8333 Val Lehman explained that the original cast included many of the best Australian theatre actresses who knew how to create believable characters very quickly. The later series were filled with younger actors trained for TV who didn't bring as much depth to their roles and it shows. Glenda aka Rita was a rare exception here and stood out.
"I'm too crook for all this!" Noeline was amazing, her family were like something out of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I understand the actress was unwell a few years back, but I hope she's better now.
Love Noelene she was hilarious.
Wish she stayed longer.
One of the best characters ever..Wished she did more episodes.
Yeah it would have been nice to see her return later on in the show.
@Aries Griffin I've got all the dvd box sets for Prisoner, far more reliable than any streaming site.
Noleine was an amazing character who we all just loved to hate. The actress played the role to perfection
She's my favourite. Go Jude! 👍🏻👍🏻
Noeline was a brilliant character,,so funny.

Noelene Burke was funny as fuck! " I'm not scared of her " classic!
she deserves to be higher than 45 , just on yet another re watch, and Noleens character had more to offer.
Noline was awesome
burke kind of reminded me like franky doyle
@4:10 i love Noeline's evil smirk in this scene.
There’s some funny bloopers with her in them I liked her
Where do you find them?
Noelene was fabulous!
Great character, wished she had a long term role, have not seen Jude kuring, in anything else since she left prisoner.
John Lee She was in a 2007 movie called Prisoner Queen.
Lol the new Lou Kelly reminds me 9f her
4:52 My older brother used to do that to us when we were kids, I'd like to see him try now
