That's interesting. The last time we saw a Safeway bag (It's Woolworths in the rest of Australia I think, but Safeway is Melbournes name for the same chain) it was paper. Meg carried a few to her appt when she lived by Gail & Tim a few eps back. In this clip they've upgraded to plastic. It looks really thick unlike the flimsy ones they give us now. They don't even have logos these days.
It's different back then. Smoking and drinking were both social events, like we have a cup of coffee together now. It was in the time before THE RESPONSIBLE SERVING OF ALCOHOL. Times have definately changed.
I think that's the only reason they show those people. The wentworth staff & released prisoners must come into contact with thousands of people that were aren't shown. We're just shown the ones that will come in so that we, the audience, form a connection with them.
Yeah i agree that the manner of Paul Reid's departure is highly unusual, he should have testified at Gail's trial. Then again Jean Vernon just disappeared too so maybe Wentworth has this effect on it's social workers!
You're correct Mark, but I still think that the actor himself had to make a speedy exit or they would have done his goodbyes a little better, same with Jean Vernon. Either problems on set or their real lives. For all we know, Jean may have had a serious car accident or family crisis or god forbid was offered a part in something more important overseas LOL
such a nice scene between lizzie and judy

You can tell that for last couple of episodes Captain Barton has been speaking Paul Reid's lines.

Also many females on the outside usually have a habit of ending up on the inside as inmates.

Well he had to go when his son left. He felt his son was more important than his job.
Good on him :)
