No matter how wrong Davo is with her insane conclusions, she never fails to be consistent with never apologizing when she is proven wrong. In fact, most of the time she doubles down and gets even more angry, handing out even more punishment.
Bea did trick him into telling her, though, by making it sound as though she already knew. Being a psychologist, he couldn't resist going into detail, in order to stroke his own ego.
20:43 After Jean says "Come in" Noleens hand hadn't even touched the handle before you can hear the door unlatch. Nol having the ciggy in her mouth backwards while the other two actresses just staring at it xD I was hoping she'd light it
You’re only one episode in, but you’re already on this episode? HOW THE HELL DID YOU MANAGE THAT? Because, even at episode 51, there is so much that’s already happened. Bella’s story is less than a duck fart in the ocean!
Meg's selective hearing is very Staffy-esque. She heard the $20 comment, but nothing on previous occasions. I wonder how she'd react if someone mentioned sausages.
Lizzie complained to Greg about waiting a long 7 months until the prison services hired him as their doctor. Well, the women at Wentworth ended up being without a doctor for at least the last 3 seasons of the show.
SoapsNthings They had Greg as a doctor briefly at the beginning, then a regular sister running the infirmary/sickbay, and outside help with the Wentworth General Hospital throughout the series for major medical issues. Later on, a male nurse replaced the sister played by Gael Andrews, who later plays Sister Hall, then back to another regular sister again. Then we had Scott, their second doctor of the series, then we a sister again, leading finally up to Sister Hall who then ran the infirmary/sickbay until the end of the series. 😃
Sister Hall was awful and clearly hated the women. She admits to Colleen Powell she wants to leave but I imagine she stays because there’s bills to pay
@@TommyRay-wp2eh Karen's baby wasn't born yet but more 2 come Denise Tyler (innocent but covered 4 her other son) Ruth Ballinger (callous child pornography racket) and Kath Maxwell (euthanasia)
What an utterly incompetent staff is running this prison. They all jump to the conclusion that Karen leaked the information and then prepare to pounce on her. They don't even bother to make a list of all the people who have come in and out of the prison. "Karen stop lying. How stupid do you think I am"... Well, let me tell ya, Mrs. Davidson, pretty darn stupid.
22:06 "To keep a daughter like you..yours out of jail for the rest of her life". :D It's always amusing to hear these flubbed lines, but great at how professional everyone is by just simply carrying on. :) Poor Karen, now she knows how Lynn felt.
Mr's Davidson, the moment you stop t.v. newspapers and take away radio's off prisoners, they know that new inmate is in for a serious crime, they're not stupid.
But they would have been screwed if they hadn’t censored the newspapers, and hadn’t banned the radios and the television. They would have had a hell of a job protecting her every minute of the day as well. So the governor and the officers would have been in a tough situation either way. 😃

I used to watch this show many years ago. It was nice to find it on RUclips. I was enjoying watching this until I got a message saying - on many of the earlier episodes - that the content was unavailable. Why is that?
@@MrsLevinson175 Huge bummer. Some episodes aren't blocked and some are, which messes up the flow and the knowing of what happened to certain character's. I'm guessing even if I subscribe to the channel some will still be blocked. Lets hope that changes.
Surprised that Mrs Davidson didn't even consider that the visiting psychologist who visited with Bea could have leaked the information. She just blamed poor Karen with such confidence and conviction. Wow!
why would Bea say she's found out about the baby murderer infront of Vera? now she will have protection to the upmost and they wont be able to touch her..what a stupid thing to do.
Bea was so rude & horrible to Noleen & Martha so she deserved it when they tried to knock her off the top dog spot. You cant talk to people like trash & constantly call them stupid & then expect them to support you as the leader.
16! In my opinion she's a baby. She needs to be in school, going to sporting events, the school prom, working at McDonald's or Hungry Jack. Hanging out with her mates at the mall,baby sitting. Not moving in with a twenty year old stranger she just met. He could be a serial rapist or a child molester.
After watching the whole series and watching Ann Reynolds, I now realize what a terrible Governor Davo was. She was always quick to blame the prisoners with the flimsiest of evidence, and when she was ultimately ALWAYS proven wrong she never owned up to her mistakes. Her and Inspector Grace would have made a fabulous love connection.
This was a great series. It's always puzzled me why we got relatively few Australian TV series in the UK, when the Australians are far closer to the Brits culturally than the Americans.
we actually don't get many Australian TV series here in the USA (except maybe on Netflix). we did get "Prisoner Cell Block H" for a few years during the early 1980s -- long enough to make an impression on those of us who did watch it, you could say. as far as whether Australians are more like the Brits than us Americans, i don't know -- i'm not a sociologist.
I always thought we had a load of Aus TV shows in the UK. Neighbours, Home & Away, Sons & Daughters, The Young Doctors, Blue Heelers, The Flying Doctors, A Country Practice, The Sullivans.
The Deputy Governor at my old Boarding School had similar traits to Vera Bennett: "If you behave like animalllllllss.........You shall be teerrreatted like animals!!!!! We will not tolerate this behaviour,yay,yay,yay.....
I think Erica possesses some good governorship skills, but unfortunately she can also act with far too much haste at times and without properly investigating the facts first. No way did she have enough supporting evidence to pin the blame straight onto Karen without first considering other possibilities. She saw one seemingly logical outcome and her mind was made up. I think that Dr Clements willingly used that opportunity to divulge the information to Bea about Bella. He is too clever to allow himself to be so easily manipulated in such a situation, but he is also a creepy swine who lacks professional ethics too.
@@andrewmorrice9139 all Karen has to do is get a lawyer who would be able to drive a coach and horses through Davo's unwarranted punishment. Presumably Creepy Clemons snitched in order to create a situation he could monitor. He sees everyone as a laboratory rat.
Baffled as to a) why Doreen is listed in the credits for this episode, b) why Bea is only on page 2 of he credits and c) how Erica, who portrays herself to be a "progressive", can be so arbitrary in apportioning blame to Karen and Karen alone in terms of who told who about the kid killer.
@derby1884 Erica can be progressive sometimes compared to how the previous governor of Wentworth, Dolly Repton was. However, Erica can be naive (like Meg, even though they care, understand, and are less strict at times), and sometimes proud. Erica will stand her ground before or after something has happened even if it is, or it was a good idea, or not. 😃
I have justed watched the first 24 episodes, and I can't get anymore anymore because there blocked. So I have jumped from episode 24 to episode 51. I wanted to know what happened to Warner.
Bea Smith, next to the Freak, is one of the most intelligent characters on this show. The way she's fishing Bella for irregularities in her story is masterful. Even cooking up a cock and bull story about sex in the kitchen to throw her off. But Bella was too clever for her and stuck to her story. To the finest detail!
@@simonsaysrewind Thank you for the info! Here in the US the episodes pick back up in sequence from ep.166.I'd be ok with the idea of fremantle getting the rights for a box set of the first two seasons if all of the fabulous actors in Prisoner who brought us so much delight are getting paid royalties from it!
All of the episodes are available to download as bittorrents if you search for them on The Pirate Bay. Of course you do that at your own risk and care must be taken when downloading anything illicitly.
Why did Bea carelessly told Vera she knew Bella killed her child? Bea should had told when the officers weren't around in the laundry & let loose on the press like she did to Lynn. It wasn't like Bea not to be so commonly sly at this period of time.. Perhaps Bea was overwhelmed with emotion in anger.
Bea just clicked on about Bella Orbret's real reason why she's really locked up. She didn't kill her husband. She killed her own child and everyone in the H block knows how Bea feels about child murderers.
They like a good ranga in this show... 15:03 - Noelene with the wrong end of the ciggy in her mouth. 22:06 - no, don't bother with the reshoot, no one will notice...

What tougher prison was Erica going to transfer Bea to? Back in these episodes Blackmoor didn't exist. We only ever heard of Barnhurst (women) and Woodridge (men) and Fairleigh which was some sort of remand prison.
She came on here WAY later as Helen Smarts sister. The new woman Bella.The screw taking Bella through the prison, isn't she the one in the ending credits walking the corridors?
When Davo's wrong, she's **really** wrong. Strange that she's unwilling to admit that Clements isn't above reproach given how much he's generally disliked & untreated as it is.
Why are some episodes blocked? Really messes up the flow and hard to follow. Really frustrating especially when you don't know what happened to certain characters.
It's crazy that Karen was treated in this way because she was blamed- after all, it wouldn't have been long before the inmates would have found out the truth about Bella anyway; they have visitors from they outside world, don't they?! Also, how come Bea wasn't punished for divulging the 'secret' to the women- only warned if anything was to happen to Bella? Karen was instantly punished for being accused of the same thing, despite the fact that she didn't do it! So poorly written- you gotta laugh. :)
Noticed in the early years of the the only other prison you hear of was barnhurst prison. But they never mentioned Blackmore prison till a lot later in the show. Which Blackmore prison makes Wentworth prison look like a girls boarding school. In the last season of the show we all finally see why Blackmore is such a hell hole. Blackmores idea of Solitary is throwing the prisoners down a well or a big hole. But we don't hear about Blackmore prison till later in the show.
Ꭿmanda Jonεs early on they do reference Fairlea, which was the real women's prison in Victoria until it closed in the 90's I believe. A lot of the cast and writers visited Fairlea for research purposes before filming. Chrissy Latham and Clara Goddard were transferred to Fairlea in the show

Helen smart sister she comes in before Helen
A sad thing has happened. This is one of the only episodes I can rewatch because it says many of the others are blocked in my country. *:(* Thank you for taking the time to put all these episodes up. I'm gonna miss rewatching a 3rd time! *:'(* Does anyone know if the DVD's will work on an american DVD player?
They won't unless you buy a region-free player of some kind. I don't know if they even exist
There's plenty of region 0 (Region Free) dvds on ebay. They will play in anything
What tougher prison was Erica going to transfer Bea to? Back in these episodes Blackmoor didn't exist. We only ever heard of Barnhurst (women) and Woodridge (men) and Fairleigh which was some sort of remand prison.
mayb just trying 2 scare her
Barnhart.
My gawd that university doctor bloke is some drongo!
She came on here WAY later as Helen Smarts sister. The new woman Bella.The screw taking Bella through the prison, isn't she the one in the ending credits walking the corridors?
When Davo's wrong, she's **really** wrong. Strange that she's unwilling to admit that Clements isn't above reproach given how much he's generally disliked & untreated as it is.
She was born in 1929, so naturally trusts people like academics over prisoners.
this episode is available in uk today yesterday it was blocked
y are these blocked in the us now
Everyone sure likes to jump to conclusions in this prison. Screws and crims
Why are some episodes blocked? Really messes up the flow and hard to follow. Really frustrating especially when you don't know what happened to certain characters.
15:00 - 15:07 LOL !!!!!! done that my self many times
Erica never investigates she just guesses...ugh Im really starting to hate Vera with a passion
It's crazy that Karen was treated in this way because she was blamed- after all, it wouldn't have been long before the inmates would have found out the truth about Bella anyway; they have visitors from they outside world, don't they?!
Also, how come Bea wasn't punished for divulging the 'secret' to the women- only warned if anything was to happen to Bella? Karen was instantly punished for being accused of the same thing, despite the fact that she didn't do it! So poorly written- you gotta laugh. :)
I don't know that it's poorly written. People are irrational and unpredictable.
What's up with first 50 episodes?
Has anyone else noticed Martha's speech pattern has changed
Burke does my head in
Leann burke is a prize winner for bad acting. Jaysus wept.
Megs hair
It’s actually one of her better hairdos 😂
Why the bloody hell is this blocked in my country!?
Noticed in the early years of the the only other prison you hear of was barnhurst prison. But they never mentioned Blackmore prison till a lot later in the show.
Which Blackmore prison makes Wentworth prison look like a girls boarding school.
In the last season of the show we all finally see why Blackmore is such a hell hole.
Blackmores idea of Solitary is throwing the prisoners down a well or a big hole.
But we don't hear about Blackmore prison till later in the show.
They mention Pentridge prison too, but i don't think we ever see it
Ꭿmanda Jonεs early on they do reference Fairlea, which was the real women's prison in Victoria until it closed in the 90's I believe. A lot of the cast and writers visited Fairlea for research purposes before filming. Chrissy Latham and Clara Goddard were transferred to Fairlea in the show
Pentridge was also a real men's prison
These days they would probably have a standardised way of treating prisoners in every jail rather than some being easier than others.
@@nevermore380 Chrissy was transferred to Barnhurst Prison.
Damn I just found the complete series playlist and got so excited to veg out on watching all 600+ episodes. Most are blocked 😭
