[@chloejones1548]

The prisoners working on a ship storyline is probably the most ridiculous of them all, yet some of the scenes are amongst the best in the whole series. Can't wait!

Joan is an ungrateful cow, making Merv and Joycie feel like intruders in their own home. And she seems to have gotten over Andrew's death pretty quickly!

[@CallemJayNZ]

Yeah it's sickening watching her ungrateful was. Especially when she sneered about Mervin not being able to cook breakfast because there were no eggs or bread. Can't wait until episode 692 when Joan finally gets all of the karma owed to her

[@lamontbradford4630]

It's Joycie's fault.She worked with The Freak for 4 years.Joyce just slapped The Freak for insulting Mervin.She knows what a cow The Freak is.

[@Redsleather]

@@lamontbradford4630 completely agree. There’s no way Joyce would want Ferguson around having hated her for 4 years. Clearly Meg Morris’ and Reynolds’ two facedness is rubbing off on her

[@Originaltuber]

the main ones that want to escape are the ones that only have 6 months. wth!

[@LittleMissJmoo]

lol I know its ridiculous. Considering they get fed, a bed, a roof over their heads. The ones who want to escape were generally living on the streets prior, or from friend to friend lol...Plus this Roach storyline was stupid on all levels, right up to her leaving! I always found her pretty pointless, as it made no difference whether she was in the show or not. She was more entertaining with her outside brief stories..

[@KenyanBunnie]

3-6 months. LOL. And then are incensed when the VJ gives them an extra 3- 6 months because they escaped. OMG! LOL

[@louisejenkins7005]

You're so insensitive! Poor Roach has to do six months in prison !! All she did was point a gun in someone's face, demand money, assist an offender on the run just for putting a guy in a wheelchair Geez 6 months just for that?😱

Omg Lexi when you're pregnant you go to maternity, that's what it's there for. Why does she always think she's above the rules and deserves special treatment and when she doesn't get it she sees herself as hard done by.

​@@fabpcbhfan9592 Cool! Oh yeah, I only interact with about 3 Prisoner fans on youtube... I thought you had finished the series when I didn't hear any more from you lol. Yes, I know what you mean about approaching the end. Even all these years later, it was quite hard when I was into the last 15 episodes! And I had to psych myself up for the last one haha. Great that you found 'Talking Prisoner' on here. I saw a bit of Val Lehman, but there are 2 interviews with her and I haven't seen it all. I saw Louise Siversen's interview and she's exactly like Lou Kelly LOL. Louise Le Nay is next, so I heard, but I haven't checked it yet. That one should be good! I just finished watching her era with Kate Peterson, it was a great time for the series. The stripper they snuck in for Bea's birthday was hilarious too! But I somehow remember Sandy's affair with Steve Fawkner being a lot more full on when I watched as a teenager! 🤣

Between lexie and Roach you could mistake the place as a playschool.

And Lexi was 26. Rabbit was older than her.

[@Julie44Inlouisiana]

What was Joyce thinking letting Joan move in with her and mervin? They all can’t stand each other.

[@Redsleather]

Completely unbelievable storyline. Neither Barrie or Ferguson have hidden their mutual dislike for years, it’s unlikely a hard, proud person like Ferguson would admit she’s so rock bottom she needs Joycie’s help

[@kelrebec]

She sat there smirking at us in our own house. Joanie brings out the best in Mervin IMHO.

[@stevencassidy6982]

Lexies acting is now atrocious - move her to maternity and keep her out of sight

[@sheriheffner2098]

The scene with Jacko on the outside with a blue shirt and straight hair and then she came back inside with a perm ans a pink shirt on looked funny. They missed it I reckon. The OS was different than the IS which Betty Bobbit called outdoor scenes which were filmed on seperate days than indoor scenes.

[@karennicholls8532]

I suppose they had to. Melbourne was always pretty rainy, so I guess you couldn't film outdoors then. Right down the bottom and right up the top of Australia gets more wild weather. The east and west coasts are calmer.

[@helengazzara8725]

So Joan - a single woman ( in those days that was a criteria), has no problem getting a loan whereas Joyce - who would earn much the same amount as Joan, and Mervyn who also earns - cant get a loan? Something’s off. The scriptwriting probably. Plus - didn’t Joyce have a half interest in the home she shared with Norm? It’s the little things.

[@emmaburfield1184]

Joan got approved before the financial crash whilst Joyce and Merv were still waiting to hear when it was reported on the news. She also said the bank wouldn't lend as much not that it was totally rejected, so perhaps the new house cost more than Joan was paying for the apartment.

[@frankbrodie5168]

It seems they are trying REALLY hard to make Rodney out to be a Joan in waiting at this point. Makes you wonder if Maggie wasn't certain to continue to the end and they wanted a replacement freak in case? Rodney the knob hangs around for the duration now, and just ends up as a bit part character like Pat Slattery eventually. Shame, because he would have made a good side story of one of the girls kicking him to death. Rita, Kath or Merle maybe? The man's an absolute dickhead.
