Have found in this interview and a few others on British tv,where the interviewer is quite rude and takes the mickey out of the show. Well done to the actors for not reacting badly to the questions.
I loved prisoner and i was so upset when Bea got shipped to barnshurst and it cut me to the bone when Lizzie called out to Bea and Bea couldn't even say goodbye to her that was so heartbreaking val you will always be our top dog even though these shows are no longer on TV now but I want to thank you for bringing bea to life for all of your fans you are a amazing and beautiful lady and to Carol burns may she rest in peace she done such a amazing job playing Frankie Doyle I miss all of the ones who are now gone including our Lizzie birdsworth thank you all for this amazing show 😊
What kind of question is that to ask Fiona? About if she would stand up for the Australian National Anthem. That is so rude and you can tell by the look on her face when he said it she looked very shocked and lost for words. What a prick!!
that question really bothered me too....out of all of the questions you could ask...why on earth ask that! I love how she very sweetly somewhat avoided it
Wow! You would never guess Carol was australian! She sounds so poshe and british nothing like Frankie Doyle!! I know she had elecution lessons at school
By the time of these interviews, Fiona had a much higher profile in the UK, because Home and Away was new and causing a sensation. Val and Carol were virtually unknown outside of Cell Block H
@krystlerita True. She has aged really well and looks good for someone in her early 60's. She must have had alot of men after when she was younger especially in her Prisoner days. It turns out she is a lesbian and met her life partner on the set of Prisoner.
I do believe Carol wants to play other characters and not go back, only forward, which is cool and understandable, just like Val wants to and not be just known as Bea Smith, but as other characters too. :) I also reckon Val wasn't keen because Elspeth was in the first live show and there is history there between them. But thankfully Val remained calm and nice and stuff in the interview, so good on her for that. :)
I should have made what I meant clearer and looked again at the whole video and mentioned both clips in my last post 11 months ago. When Val's clip was playing, "Grundy Television" was under the title "Prisoner Cell Block H", unlike Fiona's clip saying "Thames TV" under "Prisoner Cell Block H", so no that doesn't make sense whoever added "Thames TV" in Fiona's clip. ;o)
They're not British at all. Val Lehman is Australian but putting on a posh voice. She sounds like Bea in real life. Carol Burns is an Aussie too, but doesn't sound like Frankie in real life, she is more well spoken. Very classically trained in theatre and elocution. Carol didn't milk it, she may have been in Prisoner only a short while, but she is probably the best known character. Frankie is very memorable.
@tigger I heard that Carole Skinner who played Nola McKenzie in Prisoner was born in New Zealand too. Although on Google, it says that Carole was born in Australia and Val was born in Perth, Australia. 😃
Oh you gotta have Fiona Spence , saying to Meg, re Mr Fletchers smart alec comments about relations between Vera & the new screw Harrision "he's practising to be the resident idiot!"
carol burns has really milked the fact that she was in prisoner, she was only there for a short while and anytime there's something on tv about it she's there.

A lot of the prisoner cast have posh accents in interviews.

Wow! You would never guess Carol was australian! She sounds so poshe and british nothing like Frankie Doyle!! I know she had elecution lessons at school

Thanx Debbie Downer.

Interesting Fiona says that the UK has changed and the first example she mentions is "the Common Market"...
this interview seems to cut off before it is finished...anyone know if there is more to it?
oops pressed comment button by mistake. met her when she was living with her husband in UK
@ValerieBarlow I know, right! She comes across very well. :)

Must be funny for them all having to call it prisoner cell block h as they always knew it as prisoner, and now its even released as cell block h!
Hehehe. Erm, yeah, I suppose so. Thank you for that. :)

It said Thames TV because that's the channel that was showing it in the area that interview was on.
It says Thames Television under "Prisoner Cell Block H" when Fiona's (Vera B) video was playing.
That's because Thames TV was the channel that was showing it in the region the interview was on.
is Fiona Spence and relation to Bruce Spence of Road Warriors?
hot pink
lol why does lizzy say we gotta keep somebody out of strife lol
lol lorraine said it was a long time ago then- haha
the reason thames televison was under prisoner cell block is because they had promision from gundy televison network 7 does that help you
What year was this
90 or 91 i believe

Fiona spence very good attress
beas american "hunny" again
Fiona kinda looks like my mother in law.
Oh you gotta have Fiona Spence , saying to Meg, re Mr Fletchers smart alec comments about relations between Vera & the new screw Harrision "he's practising to be the resident idiot!"
Val still looks like 'Bea', Carol however I had to do a 'second take', as for Fiona, well least said...
awww....I think Fiona is gorgeous
carol burns has really milked the fact that she was in prisoner, she was only there for a short while and anytime there's something on tv about it she's there.
I love that Fiona is just natural and being herself unlike Val and Carol putting on posh accents and looking down their noses at Australian soaps.
