Prisoner Cell Block H - Volume 1

Attaining cult status around the world, this Australian series set in a women's prison was a gritty no-nonsense drama that tackled issues such as homosexuality, prison conditions and violence in a way that had never been seen before. Screened in Australia and here as 'Prisoner', the 'Cell Block H' was added overseas to distinguish it from the (very different) Patrick MacGoohan series. Reintroduce yourself to Queen Bea, Vinegar Tits and old Lizzie in the first sixteen episodes collected here.
