Sheila Florance was fantastic as Lizzie Birdsworth, 26 years ago today 12th October 1991, Sheila died aged 75 from cancer, #RIP Sheila and Thank you for bringing lizzie to life!
i am a male person and this episode made me cry the most of all of them lizzie judy was really gud sorry im just a old softy soon as that music starts tears roll dwn my face just cant help it the music the words touch my heart soon as judy cried so did i i hope u felt the same such lovely words to ty prisoner
4:51 is the EXACT moment I started watching Prisoner on Granada in 1992. I was flicking around the telly one summers night and came upon this. And I’ve been a fan ever since.
Radical Rainbow It was the last time we saw Lizzie in a scene besides a few flashback sequences, as shown in this video and later on in the series, and yes, she moved in with her son, Arthur, his wife and his children. 😃
Sheila was a dunce. She only left the show because Val left. COWARD. She really could have stuck it out longer to the very end if she wanted to and left under someone else's false givings. It's a shame when she missed the reunion she could had had with Collette Mann who returned as Doreen a short time after this for a brief stint until the 440s episodes. UGH, what a shame.
spectrumlocalb191 Sheila decided to leave after Val Lehman (Bea Smith) was forced to leave, apparently because of a new producer who didn't like Val, which she admitted in a video on RUclips for the 40th anniversary of Prisoner on Channel 10's RUclips channel. 😃
Would have been lovely if Bea had left earlier and was still alive and paroled if she and Monica had gone to see Lizzie in Hospital with Doreen as well,and Lizzie had gone to live with Bea and Monica in Queensland,that would have been a good ending or she could have lived with Doreen in Sydney,but the ending she got was a good one, not like Bea's .
Wow all that aggression over two shows....if anything neither shows where even remotely correct...Wentworth is taking the piss out of the prison system...not one thing is how correct...I wish I was locked up in that prison as I would take the Australian justice system to the cleaners for their ill practices...if ya gonna make a show get it fucking rite
Hoyschel Silversteinberg You have anger issuse or something? I'm entitled to my opinion. It's old and Wentworth is a new re-make up to date. That's all.
***** Nothing, I'm trying to be funny with an australian accent. Didn't work. But I don't care what dude said. I just think this show is not better than Wentworth. The characters are better and cuter!
The late, great Sheila florance. Absolutely amazing as Lizzie. Her and Val Lehman made the show what it was and it was never the same without them.

I heard her daughter was killed by a serial killer
So she actually wasn't quite as old as the character then.
31 years she's been gone now R.I.P Lizzy
We will never forget you 💔
Yes sir.
I'm glad that Lizzie got a happy ending.
When Judy left, that was it for the original prisoners. It changed so much once they all left.
Judy wasn’t an original cast member but she was one of the earlier ones.

I love and miss Lizzie she made the show so good
may Shelia rest in peace
Hated how they did Bea's final scene in this series and hated how they did Lizzie's final scene.
Absolutely

This was one of those rare moments when it was very moving. I mean dripping wet with sentimentality, but it definitely got me.
every time i hear that music or watch this scene breaks my heart its that bloody music the most makes me cry when lizzy judy r alone
#Lizzies final scene,this WAS NOT HER FINAL SCENE!! She moved into a families home,that's how they wrote her out. They never killed the character off.
I feel happy to hear this. I'm glad they didn't kill her off. It would have been the obvious feeling due to her old ticker.

I'm 14 and I love this. June 2018
Pixie was a quality actress for sure.
Why can't they bring this back from start to finish ❤❤❤
Not the same without Bea,Lizzie.
#R.I.P Lizzy irl i miss u ya crazy old lady
The best programme we will ever watch if our life’s
...just good times...
When Sheila (Lizzie), left Prisoner lost its soul!,it was never the same after this,a real end of era!
The show went downhill when Bea left.
How did Bea leave the show
@Chris of Scotland where in Scotland you from am from Edinburgh
Infectious motherley burdsworth .
Why does Lizzie make me crave a Winnie....
Judy, Minnie, pixie, and lizzie were the best characters in the show. Once they all left it wasn't the same.
I love this Lizzie. The one from Wentworth annoyed me.
Aww, I miss it! Lizzie
Rip lizzie

Jude looks like the cop/prisoner who is in Wentworth? Ruby's sister, is it the same actress?
I LOVED HER IN THE SHOW. WAS SHE SICK THATS WHY THET WROTE HER OUT?
spectrumlocalb191 Well she may have left due to illness, but she died in 1991, which was quite awhile after she was on this show.

spectrumlocalb191 Sheila Florance left Prisoner in 1983 to take care of her sick husband.
He died the same year.

For me lizzy bea Doreen Judy Chrissy
lizze was spec inmate 1 the best
Will not be the same with out her in it
Yes lizzie a sweet old lady but i loved Margo Gaffney from the time she left i didnt care to watch it anymore
Didn't she get parole and go to live her days with her son?
Yes, that's what happened after this
Wow all that aggression over two shows....if anything neither shows where even remotely correct...Wentworth is taking the piss out of the prison system...not one thing is how correct...I wish I was locked up in that prison as I would take the Australian justice system to the cleaners for their ill practices...if ya gonna make a show get it fucking rite
It was a tv show not a documentary silly
Yawn.
Get rid of Minnie Donovan please!.
Don't like Marie Winter, Cass Parker and Rebecca Kean either.
This can never beat Wentworth.
Hoyschel Silversteinberg You have anger issuse or something? I'm entitled to my opinion. It's old and Wentworth is a new re-make up to date. That's all.
Hoyschel Silversteinberg Wow, let me help you out. Go on and love your show, I ain't taking it away! I'm not even stooping down to your level. Peace.
***** LMAO! Na, he can piss off. High five mate!
***** Nothing, I'm trying to be funny with an australian accent. Didn't work. But I don't care what dude said. I just think this show is not better than Wentworth. The characters are better and cuter!
***** No, I'm not. I don't take people serious on here. Truth. Do you like Prisoner better than Wentworth too?
