I Loved This Program So Much As A Kid, My Mum Used To Let Me Stay Up Late Till After 12 Midnight On Thursday Nights When It Was Broadcast On UK TV In The Late 80's. I Wish They Would Show The Series Again Just For Old Times Sake :-)
damn u are a prisoner pro! i found this because i just realised judy has a baby but claimed to be a virgin, then this popped up on google with tons of other nutty enthusiasts.. prisoner rocks! :-)
thanks for putting this all together the only things I really hated was the reuse of actors in different roles like Merv Pringle who was Doreen's penpal Peter. Agnus who was Etti and others that don't come to mind right now. But once again thanks for posting these videos.
LONG LIVE PCBH! why did they call it cell block H anyway as it was always known as just "Prisioner" to us Aussies!
There were a couple other instances where an actor played more than one character in the duration of "Prisoner": The man who owned the nursery where Lynn Warner worked (in season one) played a bit part later on......the actor who played Geoff Butler (the one responsible for the bomb which killed Jim Fletcher's wife & children) ended up playing Ernest Craven in the last handful of episodes, and the woman who played Anne Reynolds (continued.....)
@737flyguy I don't know about the rest of the world but here in the UK It had to be changed because Anglia TV who made the 60's show the Prisoner thought people would get them mixed up so banned the original title from being used for British TV, bloody fools.
this is one of my favorite shows I am currently collecting the DVD set and only have 10 more to buy. One thing is I have noticed these errors as well but remember back in those days they filmed each section of scenes not 1 after he other. IE film 10 lots of corridor scenes 10 lots of laundry scenes etc etc. so yes there is errors but they should have checked before each shoot. Judy's name changed the most in the whole show :)
@737flyguy Hello there in Australia!! I just love "Prisoner". Watched it here, back in the early 1980s.
I was aware that the series was called "Prisoner" in Australia, but here in Canada (and in Britain, from what I gather), the series was re-titled "Caged Women". They'd play one hour-long episode twice a week during primetime here back then. But on an nearby American station (I live close to the border), it was called "Prisoner: Cell Block H" and they had half-hour episodes nigntly.
anyone notice that the old woman at the car who says she is the new social worker miss foster actually is etty the dopey old woman who was in jail for 40 years because the department forgot about her
thanks so much, this is hilarious! i especially loved the changing flowers, Vera's changing hair, and clothes changing mysteriously!! i am subscribing! x
with judy bryant saying she is a virgin, then saying she has a daughter, this is not neccessarily a mistake because everybody knows her as a lesbian therefore she must of told helen that she is a virgin as a sort of cover-up because she thaught she'd never see her daughter again and didnt want anybody to know that she had a daughter and lost her virginity.
No, lesbian sex is NOT sex. Think about it - how can two women really have anything more than extreme foreplay? Unless, of course, they just scissor or something...
shocking misuse of names lol

There were always mistakes on this show. Half of it's charm. The other half was it's greatness.

@737flyguy once played a mean prison guard at Barnhurst (when Bea was sent there, briefly).
LOVE Prisoner still to this day, and watch the odd DVD every now & then still. Lizzie was one of my favorites. :)

but the woman who said that she couldn't have children said she got pregnant and terminated the pregnancy, so that isn't really a continuity issue.

spikeyroberto 2 years ago
thats a good point i didnt really think about that when i rote it.
SuperNathan90 2 years ago
But lesbian sex is still sex, so if she'd ever been with another woman she wouldn't be a virgin anyway.
