...but the roses here are prisoners too, when morning comes aroundsmiley - musicalnote

Blimey, I used to stay up late (very late) to watch Prisoner Cell Block H but it was worth it.
It seemed very realistic to me, except for the paper walls.
Bea was a great topsmiley - doghard but fair with a soft centre she kept very well hidden. Old smoker Lizzie with her train-track-lined face.
I hated that butch guard, and that whining blondesmiley - yikes
Oh and all the ironing they had to do!smiley - headhurts
Do they ever show this on cable? If so, what channel please?smiley - grovel

Loved the soundtrack which started up as soon as the doors clanged shut smiley - rosesmiley - rose I bought the 45" record, still have it somewhere, I think I had to order it specially from WHSmithssmiley - laugh

That is the best TV show Australia made.

Working in an office run by women line managers and with women mostly around me it brings back so many memories of the soap.

Its so real, my factory, the greyness, the pointless power struggles, the escapism and the frustration.

Is it on DVD?

Anyone got the lyrics?

He used to bring me roses
I wish he would again
But that was on thwe outside
And things were different then

On the inside the roses grow
They don't mind the stony ground

and i 4get the rest

DAMN!
