Prisoner Cell Block H - Marie Winter's skyward escape

In arguably the most spectacular exit of the entire series, Marie Winter blackmails The Freak into arranging for a helicopter to drop by and pick her up during afternoon exercise. Naturally the ever-vigilant staff fail to raise the alarm at the sight of such a craft circling the sky above the grounds of Wentworth when all the inmates are at large - indeed, Joycie can't resist a little wave - enabling Marie - looking rather slimmer in the hips and greyer in the wig than usual - to scale the fence, and then demonstrate her outstanding upper-body strength as she clings to the ascending aircraft so rigidly it's almost as if she's stuffed...

Marie was top dog apparently way before Bea came into Wentworth and then got transferred to Barnhurst. that all came out somehow...don't remember now.

Lovely how the beloved Joycie gives a friendly little wave to bid Marie a fond adieu! She's a card, she is.

Bea was the Top Dog but Marie arrived when Bea was in the prison hospital with kidney disease. When Bea went to the big hospital for a kidney transplant, Marie finagled her way into the Top Dog position. Bea had been top dog for about 240 episodes up to that point.
