Why did Cass get freaked out by Rick Manning but was fine with the physiatrist who was giving off way more serial killer vibes than Rick. Perhaps it was his perm and tasche 😂
The psychiatrist Dr Jonathan Edmunds didn’t give off any serial killer vibes at all. Because prison officer David Bridges turned out to be a serial killer who almost killed Lizzie and Cass, Cass panicked and believed that new prison officer Rick Manning was going to be another male prison officer who kills female prisoners as well.
That's why they named the character Reb. She was supposed to be a Rebel Without A Cause. Janet, according to the late Betty Bobbit had long hair before; then they had her get it cut in a D.A. or a Duck Ass like her characters favorite movie star James Dean. That's one of my favorite movies too but he doesn't have his collar up like Reb's.
Does anyone else find Min's whole character and circumstances unbelievable? The whole idea of her being a "mother figure" to a bunch of ne'er do wells, and training them all to be shoplifters, and giving them life guidance and mothering them etc. Not buying it at all. I think that maybe the writers had been watching Oliver Twist when they came up with that nonsense.
It is very Oliver Twist and ridiculous and that absurdness means another bonkers character like Pixie is the obvious choice for star pupil, cell block h occasionally goes leftfield and unrealistic and I don't mind, it's part of the charm.
Haha! Well, she definitely has a Nazi/Fascist, evil, repressive personality to her, especially when she's in uniform. So I can see what you mean with the uniform and the power that she uses to her advantage like a Nazi would have done.
Babs McMillan, superb talent. Maggie Kirkpatrick, was awesome here. Her portrayal of the freak was just magic, just for the record the real freak was more sinister than that.
I could'nt agree with you more. In Coronation Street there was a Character just as annoying as Joan Furguson called Mike Baldwin. Yet He seemed to be more popular than Joan Ferguson, which was an injustice. Mike Baldwin in Coronation Street was just as nasty as mean as Joan Ferguson. Also he was just as much a bully as her
Porridge for lunch, that's quite a Dickensian touch. I half expected Judy to get up from her table and go to the server and say, "May I have some more, please?" Meanwhile, Joan is having a full well-balanced meal entertaining the minister--"my father" as she refers to him at the end of the scene--with whitewashed tales of a harmonious sense of order under her capable direction. She makes Vera Bennett look like a social worker.
Yes it is and her character was very well played by gerda nicolson I dont think anyone else could have played Ann as well. Was it Fellows who had Paul shot as Ann told Meg?
@@dannii39 the amount of things fellows had done why could the cops never nail him for it? Also how did Ann work out that Paul's shooting was ordered by fellowes?
@@josephmullin5845 think it was too much a coincidence considering he didnt seem to have these problems until the fellowes photos came out. Its the only obvious link to Ann
Call an ambulance and the police. Quick thinking! Fergo wants to turn the heat up on the prisoners. She is a bad piece of work! "The heat opens up the pores. With your face, you should try it." Right on Judy about Fergo! That card is so funny behind Mrs. Reynolds at the hospital. Make Fergo eat the porridge! LOL! Lots of technical hitches with Fergo in charge. Ha, ha, ha! Clean Fergo's shoe. I'd spit on it.
Knew Meg would come out on top in the end over Ferguson and It holds true for real life, people perceived as strong and controlling don't last, you don't keep support for long treating others unfairly.
I do not know how many times I have heard them women say "this time we have to get rid of the freak" or words very close to that. Do they NOT realise by NOW they aren't going to win lol. If Bea could not beat her then what chance does judy and the rest of this lot have........ NONE. Especially with Sonia around.
He sort of reminds me of Robert Reed from The Brady Bunch. With the exception of the moustache. But Bob Reed was an ass, according to Lloyd Schwartz, the son of the late Sherwood Schwartz, and the late Ann B Davis.
+Radiant Silver Labs I agree. Also, does anyone notice how they recycled the Fletcher storyline but involved Rick Manning and Colleen Powell? The bomb meant to kill deputy governor Jim Fletcher killed his ex-wife & sons, whereas the bomb meant for officer Rick Manning killed deputy governor Colleen Powell's husband, son and daughter. That's a recycled storyline with some changes made to it.
This is my first trip through this amazing series... been watching 3-4 a day, on this channel, for about 3 months or so (THANKS SO MUCH FOR UPLOADING!). I've gotta ask: Does anyone EVER destroy/eject from Wentworth/flatten/spindle-and-or-mutilate The Freak? As much as I love this series, it seems a bit over the top that one screw could wield such incredible & horrible influence! Oh, but how I'd love to see her get caught while doing her dirtiest dirt! SUCH a brilliant series!
Colleen has made some stupid judgements in the last few episodes, telling Joan she was going to the police herself, this is Joan of course she'd get there first.
I find it really gross, watching Fergo and Older Fergo eat lunch on her work desk. 🤢 She's so desperate to impress "Faather" the minute she gets a chance! 🥺
+PrisoneroftheNight I agree with you. Colleen Powell would never go that far. I doubt if Jim Fletcher or Vera Bennett would have approved of Joan's methods either, anyone agree?
Tammy Hallett No, it is nothing like that, but she definitely makes the women's lives uncomfortable in any way possible that she can, whether it is following the rules, loosely following the rules, or breaking the rules, but without any evidence to confirm her corruption. 😃
So, Anne's son gets shot in the back with the bullet _near_ his spinal column and he's at death's door yet Sonia gets stabbed (what looks like) straight in the spine and she makes a near full recovery within days? *O.o?* Joan in the governor's seat is scary. 19:07 How Sonia doesn't get a say in having her bowl turned over and the look on her face = *HILARIOUS.* *:''D*
Judy wouldn't hurt Belinda, lesbians know who are gay and who are not. I used to work with a gay woman and she had her partner and they were together for five years until the girl committed suicide. The girl got depressed because her family rejected her. That's usually what happened in the 1980s. This is when Ann and Meg became friends. Gerda Nicholson was such a good actress, it's so sad that she died so young. Even though she was in her fifties, that's young in my opinion.
11:00 I must admit, I thought at first that she was merely going to shut the lights off, but she goes to great imaginative lengths to torture when given the opportunity.
Idk why they ever try to do anything to the freak all they ever end up doing is getting themselves in trouble and making her look amazing to the department
*31:28* LMAO. The look on Rick's face. *:''D* And Joan's such a bitch, what she's doing to Cass. That ain't right. I love this episode because the prisoners refuse to cooperate with The Freak. I've never loved Judy more!
Judy is so unconvincing as top dog and Joan will get the upper-hand over her every time. Admittedly, Judy had to give in to her in order to protect Cass, but even without that in the way she would still have lost the battle. Colleen only has herself to blame for that witness turning against her, it was obvious from the start that he wanted no part to play in it, so she should have just accepted it and not pushed her luck with him.
Carlene Boulden Thankfully, Judy bridges the gap until a genuine top dog comes along and so that no baddie takes over as top dog and manipulates the women again. 😃
A lot of these same tracks were used in British programmes of the 70s and early 80s as well, just stock music but a lot of it is very good. I like how they use the shark music whenever a murdering psychopath turns up, I mostly associate it with Bev Baker but they used it for a few.

Probally not but Bea might not have been as easily snookered by the Freak Judy is not really top dog material she can be out played..

Joseph Mullin no because she would have promised to do SOMETHING TO LIZZY
"Well babe, we're all the same in the dark" Too funny!!!
how come a prisoner guard can work out what Ferguson is like almost within minutes of meeting her but it takes the Department YEARS.
True
The department probably works on the "suspicion but no proof" point of view
They only go on by written reports.
They should have sent spies from the department on more regular occasions than just that woman Jillian Clarke
Because Joan is too smart
Continuity of this show some times ;-p. Rick arrives on a bus. 4 minutes into episode he is offering to drive Meg to hospital!
Why did Cass get freaked out by Rick Manning but was fine with the physiatrist who was giving off way more serial killer vibes than Rick. Perhaps it was his perm and tasche 😂

Yeah Coleen played that situation out silly

A lot of these same tracks were used in British programmes of the 70s and early 80s as well, just stock music but a lot of it is very good. I like how they use the shark music whenever a murdering psychopath turns up, I mostly associate it with Bev Baker but they used it for a few.
Well that was pretty pointless Jude, you just hit Fergo with a handful of nothin'.
