when Bea Smith snarls out "YOU BASTARD!!" at 'the Freak' Joan Ferguson, she truly sounds like a metal icon....one of the best Queen Bea vs the Freak moments ever
...as much as that ghoul IS a monster, she really IS doing her job and effectively. She has to use whatever means to get them to bend: They ARE prisoners, after all. It's hard to forget that they are "the bad guys," cuz we aren't their victims (you know wot I mean)...but if the person who murdered my daughter was in there, I'd be all about the ghoul like monster screws. hahahaha That one horrifying fact of my life is the only way I can see the screws' points of view.
@@ovormotssetgetsiin6359 You are completely right. We see them as they see themselves, as the innocents being bullied by the screws. We wouldn't see the same aspect in real life. I'm sorry for your terrible loss.
Joan is also the bad guy. The only difference is she hasn't been charged and on the wrong side of the bars. Chrissie's brother should have gotten a lawyer and Chrissie should have laid charges against Ferguson; after that brutal assault. The police may not of liked it, but they are obligated to lay charges. Than Joan needs to appear in front of a judge.
Most of the prisoners in this series are in for minor offenses. With the exceptions of Bea and Chrissy. The Freak was in Wentworth for about a week. She molested several prisoners, with her unnecessary, disgusting body searches, attempted to rape another, serverly assaulted another prisoner and stole huge amounts of money from them. Not to mention neglecting her over size dog. That she leaves at home, for long hours, while she's at work, doing her job. The Ferguson character is far worse than the prisoners, including Bea and Chrissy. Ferguson belongs in prison. Colleen was viral. Vera was nasty, but I would think they would be typical, of what a correction officer, realistically would be like. The Ferguson character, would be realistic, for a concentration camp. I suppose those are the type of monsters you would fine in places like that. The Freak character is pure evil. I know if you continue to watch the series the writers will show a softer side of Ferguson. However; you could do that with anyone. Fergo belongs in prison. Also, Ferguson would be murdered by the other prisoners, for her actions, in a realistic prison. She would last about 5min.
Ferguson is twisted. She is a danger to herself and other members of staff, also the prisoners. The officers and inmates can see it. So why can't Davo or the Department listen to them and do something about her?
In a real women's prison. Ferguson would have been fired on the spot before her career even got off the ground at Wentworth. They certainly wouldn't have let Ferguson get away with her antics.
Gotta love the Aussie term 'snags' for sausages. I can remember it being said a few times on The Paul Hogan show as well. (which predates PCBH by a few years even. I have a DVD with 1976 onwards stuff on it.)
It is winter here in Australia currently and BLOODY FREEZING especially at night. I am in regional Victoria, 1.5hrs from Melbourne. Early morning is the worst - at 6:30am every day it is 2-3 degrees celcius.
"2-3 degrees celcius" = "bloody freezing" - whinging Aussies, you have no idea what freezing really is. I've been living in the Czech Republic for 15 years, the lowest temperature I've experienced here is -21C during the day!
I think best pay back on the freak is when she is shoved in the drier I think in later episode's. And one episode in praticuler where she is clinging for her life on a ledge at top of some stairs.
Sometimes the way chrissie talks is so funny and her expressions, she took over as top dog for a minute in the garden when the women wouldnt obey ferguson 😂😂
i like judy she is a great house mum, plus protects her girls. hearing she was a red light girl i was shock. just like i was when she told hannah she was gay. but thats what i get skipping to the freak.
More's the pity your woman didn't succeed in finishing the 'job'. What I can't fathom is, why Barbara didn't pilfer all the dosh when she cased the joint? And is it just me, or does anyone else think that Powell has a face like an Afghan hound?
For a proprietor of a halfway house, Judy sure doesn't ask many questions upon women's entry into the house. Even aside (away from others) she should at least ask why they're seeking refuge and check up on that. Smh.
I liked how Latham called the freak a toad. I reckon The Freak looks like a cow, but that is an insult to a cow. Im only referring to the charactor, not the actor. I like the actor.
As she says this after a mention of the Freak's history in Queensland, perhaps she is referring to cane toads (Australian slang for Queenslanders). Cane toads are an introduced pest initially rampant in the northern states but now migrating south due to climate change. Queenslanders call those south of the border 'cockroaches' or 'Mexicans'.
Well Bea isn't so clever after all is she. Why didn't she save face by saying "OK girls, this is ME ordering you to go back inside," thereby making it clear that the women were following her orders and not The Freak's? In fact if she could have done that right after The Freak's order, and they could have made their point without having to freeze their arses off.
Farewell Susie. I hope it goes well for her, she may have been annoying for the show with her silly escape attempts and decisions but she was just a kid, a troubled kid at that. I hope she has a good life and I'm happy she found someone like Jo. Good luck Suz.
@@sb6678 I mean.. You could just wiki the name. He was a UK TV presenter who fronted a chat show in the 1980's. But sadly died in his early 50's before the end of that decade. His wiki picture is him a bit younger. The dude drinking with Babs at 32:45 looks just like Russel did in his heyday.
There is no way that they don't recognize this Hannah Simpson character coming back later on in the series as undercover cop and getting bashed and no one knowing what a big character she played in the series previously call bullshit anyhow I like her.
She was absolutely gorgeous in later life i googled her and looked how she aged, she looks stunning on some of her photos online. A real sophisticated looking lady 👌
Im really liking this show, the ladies may be down, but that gives them more reason to keep trying,they have guts, good for them, i like when they do stuff like riots, it makes the show even that much better then it is.thanks for this great show. nice job uploading all these episodes.
Aw, that cute old belief that one can catch a cold from being cold and/or getting wet. I remember my mum saying "don't go out with wet hair, you'll catch a cold".
LittleMissJmoo Moo oh this show rehashes the same stuff all through the series, just different people. And then there are the people playing multiple parts.
I had honestly forgotten just how much I detest "the Freak". When this was on TV first run, I only watched it now and then (work schedules) now being able to do several episodes a day I am way more in to it and my hatred for her has reached epic levels..
jiggarypokery. I never have liked the Drongo Driscoll character. Too unbelievable that someone growing up in institutions could be that stupid and naive.
And the fact she says terrific in every few lines of hers. This is the only comment acknowledging her departure and it's a negative comment, she won't be missed.

Bea should have kicked The Freak in the private area lol
LOL at judy on the phone...... 'A chicken farm.....chooks'
I love it when Bea says "You Bastards!"
Nia Molina. Yeah but Chrissie owns that line and says it best.
Nia Molina it is more Chrisie s line but the way Bea says it is so funny, she says baaastards!
Bawstuds
You killed kenny
@@rpatricknabors that award went to Geoff butler baaaaaahstud
Jo really is lovely isn’t she. So caring, and such a soft voice
I'm starting to miss Mr. Fletcher !
...I do miss FLETCH, also...FERGO, is making me sick...
+TheBluetoob I'm still missing Vera
I miss him and Vera. I would have loved to see them on staff with Joan, like on Wentworth.
+Merilee S Me too!
Wish he was in it atm. No way would he tolerate an officer refusing treatment for a sick old lady.
Wow, the incidental music is getting a synth up and really getting into the 80s.
The alarm sounds like an air raid siren
Jo is such an Angel taking Susie under her wing before & after what she went through..
The actress playing Barbara is doing a good job during these episodes.
The best bit is when Bea see's The Freak approaching with the hose and roars "You Bastard".
No she said you bitch did she not
@@catherinegallagher1101 No she said you bastard...
I remember when she says it in the same way to Fletch on his first day as guvnor in much earlier episodes. 😊
Sod off back to Queensland, you great bloody toad! Hahahaha, has to be the line of the series!
It beats her usual, "ere, wha about my baybee?"
Or her other trademark ‘you baaar-stard’
44:55 Bea realizing she's not dealing with merely a bent screw, but a monster.
...as much as that ghoul IS a monster, she really IS doing her job and effectively. She has to use whatever means to get them to bend: They ARE prisoners, after all.

Yes I miss fletch the letch.
He would have had a field day getting into Fields’ knickers
Fields is to classy for him
Chrissie to Bea (about Ferguson) to the other officers: "...they know she's a bent screw!"
Ferguson is more than "a bent screw." She's twisted.
Ferguson is twisted. She is a danger to herself and other members of staff, also the prisoners. The officers and inmates can see it. So why can't Davo or the Department listen to them and do something about her?
Poor Susie, poor Susie my god, so glad that she's left.
Ferguson with the hose was pretty funny. She is always 1 step ahead of those prisoners
In a real women's prison. Ferguson would have been fired on the spot before her career even got off the ground at Wentworth. They certainly wouldn't have let Ferguson get away with her antics.
Ferguson would have been gone after assulting Chrissy. If not by the prison authorities; the prisoners would take care of her.
They should've left Lizzie out of the protest. She's to old and fragile to physically handle it. Did she not learn after 2 escape attempts.
Totally agree with you, She looks really week & frail - bless her
Try stopping her!
She's so scrawny she needs a haircut ✂️
She needs medical attention
Loved the scene with Joan turning the hose onto Bea, and co, !! LOL
Yeah it was funny as f**k
Was brilliant 😂
That was funny

Fergo with that hose was hilarious! Fergo the freak is real popular alright. OMG! loose lips sink ships! We shall overcome!
Ha, I love the noise the guns always make in pcbh, like a cheap firecracker or a small branch snapping.
its funny how chrissy always had the shortest dresses and pajamas...
That junkie sent to kill Donna is also the woman that lags on Jude when she helps hazel
NO.
"Don't be insolent".Said a lot lol
Lizzie knows how to cough up an oyster like no other.
I bet Erica wants Vera back
LMAO!...Fergo grabbing her hose and spraying the lot of them...Notty Fergo!...The Pixie lookalike robs the safe?...Pack a case for Wentworth Doreen!
Joan gets out more situations then cat has nine life's
Steve's changed recently, enjoyed this episode, poor old Lizzie.
Did the woman who played Hannah play Wendy Glover
Yes
Yes she did
Jeez Chrissie is game publicly mouthing off to Joan like that especially after being pulverised by Joan only a few episodes back.
So Joan threatens Hannah in front of the rest of the staff about how she’ll be alone in the pound and nobody blinks....
Grundy would have had to pay them if they had!! 😊
Kirk Alexander, the actor portraying Philip looks like Bryon 'Doctor Weissmann' Williams.
I think he actually played a doctor in an episode or 2 around 1980 - wasn’t he the one who fitted Judy’s pacemaker?
I think best pay back on the freak is when she is shoved in the drier I think in later episode's. And one episode in praticuler where she is clinging for her life on a ledge at top of some stairs.
lol in the hose scene i bet the actor plying the freak was tryne not laugh
Steve sticking up for joan
Just wait until Anne Reynolds arrives, they’re like BFFs
I bet it was Doreen who caused that fire the little pyro techneck that's the THIRD one
I love the singing.
We need Frankie up against the Freak. At 42:11 she really reminded me of Victoria Principle
Good one Miss Ferguson!! You showed them
Sometimes the way chrissie talks is so funny and her expressions, she took over as top dog for a minute in the garden when the women wouldnt obey ferguson 😂😂
i like judy she is a great house mum, plus protects her girls. hearing she was a red light girl i was shock. just like i was when she told hannah she was gay. but thats what i get skipping to the freak.
How is Chrissy Latham wearing a mini dress when everyone else has regular prison issue?! 😂
I think she takes the hems up at the sewing machine in the laundry😊
HAHAHA IM SORRY BUT I LOVED THE FIRE HOSE SCENE
41:08 - someone's read 2 pages of a drum machine manual and thought yep, I'm a seasoned beatmeister
Superb
In response to Erica's comment about staying "exactly where you are" unless obeying freaky ferguson, had I been there, I'd have happily sat down.
More's the pity your woman didn't succeed in finishing the 'job'. What I can't fathom is, why Barbara didn't pilfer all the dosh when she cased the joint? And is it just me, or does anyone else think that Powell has a face like an Afghan hound?
...yer spot-on...POW does have the face & hair of that ol' Afghan-hound...Lol !!
Virginia Guiney that's insulting to sweet cool Afghan Hounds!!
@msnadiak.....that's not freezing! That's just chilly. Try living in a country where a winter IS a winter
It gets bloody cold in Melbourne.
So, this is what it's going to be like for the rest of the series? One futile attempt to oust Ferguson after another?
Bea with her scowling face and stupid hair lol
Yes lol
Yup!
Oh Steve! Has the penny finally dropped?
For a proprietor of a halfway house, Judy sure doesn't ask many questions upon women's entry into the house. Even aside (away from others) she should at least ask why they're seeking refuge and check up on that. Smh.
Omg that fire hose scene was hilarious I’d love to see behind the scenes on how they did it
I liked how Latham called the freak a toad. I reckon The Freak looks like a cow, but that is an insult to a cow. Im only referring to the charactor, not the actor. I like the actor.
Absolutely. A toad is far too good. Its not that easy to find a word which so accurately defines such a Grade A bitch like her!
i read on here the woman who plays the freak was in court for rape
and acquitted of charges by a mentally ill fan
Latham's one to talk...she's the depiction of a Butterface.
As she says this after a mention of the Freak's history in Queensland, perhaps she is referring to cane toads (Australian slang for Queenslanders). Cane toads are an introduced pest initially rampant in the northern states but now migrating south due to climate change. Queenslanders call those south of the border 'cockroaches' or 'Mexicans'.

Po face looks like tweenie character....fizz or bella
The Freak must think it's 1963 Alabama with that fire hose.
Another Kay White??
Much better looking though 😍
Same hair style
Farewell Susie. I hope it goes well for her, she may have been annoying for the show with her silly escape attempts and decisions but she was just a kid, a troubled kid at that. I hope she has a good life and I'm happy she found someone like Jo. Good luck Suz.
If Erica and meg run the place as a prison they wouldn't resent Vera and Ferguson sticking to the rule book
Say it again! Those dummies (E & M) belong together
Two soft gobshites
We shall overcome! 🎶🎶🎶
Wow.. Russel Harty has risen from the grave. And is meeting Babs for a drink.

Joan finally got to "feel"' like she has a PENIS!!! 😂😂😂😂
It’s unbelievable Ferguson doesn’t recognise ‘Wendy Glover’ 4 years later
Salad for breakfast??
There always seems to be bloody lettuce on their plates. I hate the stuff.
Something Val Lehman said years ago, they requested something healthier to lose weight. Eating day, they complained the food was too fattening.
@@Mynewlife2025given how much tubbier Val Lehman is by 1983, she clearly didn’t eat much lettuce
Well in Helsinki the hotel served strawberry gateaux for breakfast
Lizzie and her graveyard cough
Why didn't they just go in and then ignore The Freak again once inside?
Locked themselves in the canteen room with no toilets
MEG MORRIS PUSH OFF!!! Bloody bleeding hearts!
"the women barricaded themselves in"
Oh really,5 light chairs and some small tables,a 5 year old kid could push that door open... :D
I like this show
Julieanne Newbould played both Hannah and Wendy, that's correct :)
Thank you, ProsonerCell BlockH95 for putting these up! Well done and much appreciated!
Ferguson is wicked but makes for a great story line am worried I really like her 😂😂😂
Liking her won't last long believe me she is a monster some of the stuff she gets away with is awful makes good viewing tho.... 🤣
Why can't they ask Meg or Steve to get Lizzie's pills there standing at the gate doing nothing.
Steve is sulking still so he wouldn't do it
Meg Morris has popped for a nice wee after all the coffee she’s drank since 1979
Im really liking this show, the ladies may be down, but that gives them more reason to keep trying,they have guts, good for them, i like when they do stuff like riots, it makes the show even that much better then it is.thanks for this great show. nice job uploading all these episodes.
The Halfway House is really just a mini Wentworth
Oh yeah, you're so RIGHT!
Aw, that cute old belief that one can catch a cold from being cold and/or getting wet. I remember my mum saying "don't go out with wet hair, you'll catch a cold".
You can catch a cold in wet weather I have.
I read it was a myth but I have the flu jab each year.
22:02 The "2 JOANs" are stood face to face HAHA😂😂
tune! 41:15
Good riddance Suzie 'I don't want charity' Driscoll.
Rehashing the Kaye White storyline pretty much....
LittleMissJmoo Moo oh this show rehashes the same stuff all through the series, just different people. And then there are the people playing multiple parts.
Barbara was a lot different to Kay.
I came here to say the exact same thing
It's a shame Meg was not the governer of wentworth the freak would not pull the wool over meg
Have to say the women are real good singers
Susie doesn't know what's good for her.
I know Doreen can be anoying. But I really felt for her in this episode when she was laid of
Bea and Mouse suddenly grab the table, brilliant! Mouse is a pusher, but Bea doesn't do anything, yet
And suddenly the dining room has doors at the other end 🤣🤣

very Clever of Joan Ferguson to pull the Woll over everyone's eyes
Finally we get rid of the annoying lingering Susie Driscol, these episodes are some of my favourites and she spoilt them.

Amazed that the girls didn't think Lizzy wasn't strong enough, she looks like death, but "what a lark!?" lol
Joan and hose pipe lol
You want a friend get yourself dog. Love it😂
Why couldn't Doreen keep her big beak out of her boss's business. She wouldn't if been in the front line. She is her own worst enemy.
She can never mind her own business and never shuts up
Haha...I love watching her though! Now and again she really clocks someone!!
I love the music that starts at 38:10 :) JH JH
Ah that drama music 🎶 Yes something is happening and it is bad😗
You should listen to Abba The Piper
JH JH ok I will look it up :)
JH JH yeah, you just know it is something bad lol.
Carlene Boulden Its a great song and Jon and Vangelis I'll find my way home.
Lol thought Steve opened mouth there went ooh lol
