The soap was rerun in the early '90s, and then again around 2000 on Channel 5 through the morning. I didn't watch it when it was first shown.
I'm 38 and used to watch late on a Friday night after the pub in the 90's!
Now you mention it I seem to remember getting in slightly drunk and watching an episode with my Dad and us both being in hysterics at a corny episode where someone was threatening one of the main characters with an obvious cardboard knife! (no offence to all the PCBH fans:o)
Why did Bea press the alarm after stabbing Jacqs? Is Jacqs assumed dead? Did Bea press it to alert help for Jacqs or attention from the other inmates of what she had done?
I'm not sure we know. Maybe it was Bea's way of announcing that the queen is dead and the inmates' world has turned upside down. Rules about buttons have been overtaken by events. Or it might be a symbol of the growth of Bea over the series, that no longer will she be pushed around and meekly do what she's told by others. It was so right for her to press it at the very end of the series after frightened Bea was warned in ep. 1 by Liz,, "Don't ever press it."
You can buy Prisoner Cell Block H on DVD. Its released on boxsets in volumes of 32 episodes well worth checking out you are new to the world of Wentworth.

The complete boxset is £738,99 :eek: on Amazon - or I believe all the episodes can be viewed on YouTube.
Watched the final episode last night on 5*, absolutely brilliant, so it was Franky that killed Meg, and Liz framed Jacs for it, by hiding the bracelet in her tub of cream, i didn't see that coming, and lmfao when Bea stuck her in the neck with the pen, and the blood was just spurting out, wouldn't catch me asking her for her autograph, not if thats her reply! , can't wait for the 2nd series.
Well, I hope the writers take into account that Franky is probably more popular with viewers than all the other characters put together (you should see Twitter light up about her compared with the rest). If they write her out of it they will lose a lot of their audience.
Meg's husband will go crazy with Franky if he ever gets to know that it was her who killed his wife. Even though she didn't intend to kill her, she still kept the fact that she stabbed her a secret.
I'm missing Franky already so will have to get the DVD! I've got a huge girl crush in her😍!
This seems to be a common effect that Franky has had on British women. Over the series there have been many tweets along the lines of "Major girl crush on Franky", "Massive girl crush on @nicdasilva" etc.

No way would I buy the complete boxset!
I bought all the volumes as they were released over the course of 4 years. Well worth it.
Xmas is coming. Just ask someone to buy the first few volumes as a gift so that you can get started :P
You're right though. They are all on youtube.
Agreed, shes hot as hell
Is she winding me up ?
Surely Jax is dead !
Flashbacks? or a twist.
I'm sure I read on the Australian Wentworth site that Bea killed Jacs in the episode guide. It didn't show you Jacs being pronounced dead though.
I would say that if Bea killed Jacs then Jacs is dead. I'm not aware of an instance of a person being killed who is not dead.
Ep.8 1.34m
Ep.7 1.28m
Ep 6: 1.33m
I expected ep. 9 to be higher, but I still think ep.10 will be well up.
Ask your friend in Oz and please don't tell us the answer!
