00:00We can be married in two days' time, but I've got to know, one way or the other.
00:08Well?
00:13Yes.
00:18I just want to tell you one thing.
00:21It's over.
00:23We're finished.
00:24Concerning Kerry Vincent, additional evidence of a serious nature has come to hand.
00:35On the basis of this evidence, there are grounds for believing that you might indeed have blackmailed Kerry Vincent.
00:43You are therefore suspended from duty until further notice.
00:54Are you all right, dear?
01:12I've just been suspended.
01:14The department thinks I blackmailed a painting out of Vincent.
01:16That's absurd.
01:17He doesn't think so.
01:20I had to tell Mrs Davidson what I'd heard, Vera.
01:23Overheard, Mr Fletcher.
01:24And if you weren't in the habit of eavesdropping, you might have heard what I said in context.
01:29It used to be that prisoners had to earn their privileges, and that's all I was implying.
01:33Not extortion, as you seem to think.
01:35I said no such thing.
01:36But why would she want to accuse you of blackmail?
01:39Because for a moment I forgot she's no different than the others.
01:42There's not one of them worth helping, because none of them know the meaning of the word.
01:46Well, there have been prison weddings before, and I don't think Mrs Davidson would raise any objections.
01:54Of course, first of all, we have to get departmental approval.
01:57Oh, you did keep the forms, didn't you?
01:59Oh, yeah.
01:59I was sort of hoping she'd change her mind.
02:01But who's going to marry us in here, though?
02:03Well, what's wrong with the minister who was going to marry her before?
02:06Well, no.
02:06I had to book him up a month ahead, and...
02:08Well, now we've got to get married real quick, or Doar's likely to change her mind again.
02:12No, I won't.
02:13And a month's not too long to have to wait.
02:14No, love, I'm sorry.
02:15I want us to get married as soon as possible.
02:17Listen, I've got a few contacts.
02:18I think I can probably arrange a marriage celebrant at short notice.
02:21How does that affect you?
02:22Well, it sounds great to me.
02:24Yeah, well, Lynne Mourner said that she got married by one of them, and she said it was real nice.
02:28Thanks, Mr Reid.
02:33Shouldn't be too long, though.
02:35Been a bit short-staffed, and the work starts piling up, you know.
02:39No, I'm used to waiting.
02:40Been at this rehabilitation stuff for some time now, have you?
02:43A few years.
02:44Funny, I don't remember seeing you at Pentridge.
02:46You know, I was there myself for very long.
02:48Came from New South Wales.
02:50Shoved me right into maximum security.
02:52Tough lot of bastards there, I can tell you.
02:55Maybe they didn't like the way they were being treated.
02:58No, you've been lucky.
03:00You've only been dealing with the good ones.
03:02I tell you, it makes a sweet change working in a woman's prison, I can tell you that.
03:07What made you take up this sort of work in any case?
03:09I was inside for 20 years.
03:12I figured I owed the system something.
03:16Mr Jackson.
03:19This gentleman here has an appointment with Bea Smith.
03:22Can you see to it, please?
03:24Yes, Mr Stewart.
03:25Miss Bennet, I'd like to thank you for coming to Kerry's exhibition.
03:28She's got a lot of talent, but she does need that sort of encouragement.
03:30The only talent she's got is for lying and using people.
03:33Look, if you could go through, Mr Pierce, I'll get an officer to go with you.
03:36Look, it's only until they can investigate.
03:42You'll be cleared in no time.
03:43Look, I heard what happened, and I'm sorry.
03:58You know, you look like you could use a drink.
04:01It's not true with the same, but Scotsman.
04:03Our wallets aren't glued to our spawns all the time, you know.
04:05I've got to pick up a painting.
04:09The painting?
04:11I should have known when she gave it to me.
04:12She was setting me up.
04:14Yeah, well, we all make mistakes.
04:17I could suspend it myself once, you know.
04:20And I don't like it.
04:22I don't like it at all.
04:25And I reckon it's about time something was done about it.
04:28Well, you've certainly got the mood of the play and what it's trying to say.
04:37That's a good start.
04:39So glad you approve.
04:40How's rehearsal going?
04:42Funny, I could have sworn you'd lost interest.
04:46Look, I know I haven't been by as often as I should, but, well, I have been flat to the boards.
04:49So I've noticed.
04:51It must take a lot of time setting up art shows.
04:54Kerry must have a lot of talent for you to take such a personal interest.
04:59Yes, yes, I think she's talented.
05:01And I also think that talent is going a long way towards rehabilitating her.
05:04That's why I'm pressing for an early release.
05:07And that's the only reason I'm interested in her.
05:10Well, it's tried on me.
05:12Or aren't I talented enough?
05:14You know, you really don't give me much credit for knowing what it's like to be locked away from someone, do you?
05:19Too much time to think, get things out of proportion.
05:24You start imagining all sorts of things.
05:26Imagining?
05:29Look, Bea, I know things go wrong sometimes, but I also know that that can be helped along by suspicions and accusations and...
05:36And forgetting what it's like to trust someone.
05:38Trust?
05:40My old man was shacked up with a little tart three weeks after they put me inside.
05:46Oh, boy, one lousy experience and you start jumping to conclusions every time, don't you?
05:53Look, look.
05:54I know it's a tall order expecting someone to remain loyal all the time, but if that someone really cares, whatever happens on the outside won't change that.
06:07I wouldn't want to be a fool if she thought a man could be happy with just seeing her for a few minutes every now and then.
06:18That depends on how much he cares.
06:22And he could care one hell of a lot about her.
06:24Yes.
06:29I see.
06:36Yes.
06:39Yes, I am aware of that, Mr. Douglas.
06:42I'll let them know.
06:47Well, thank you very much for your trouble.
06:49Goodbye.
06:53Well, all that remains is for you to set the date.
06:57Oh.
06:59Well, I took the liberty of talking to a married celebrant, just in case the department are having one of their better days, and she can marry them tomorrow.
07:06It's nice to know you have such faith in the department, Mr. Reid.
07:11There is one restriction, I'm afraid.
07:14You'll be unable to invite family or friends.
07:17But if there's anyone in here you would like to invite, Doreen, that will be fine.
07:21But keep the number down to four or five.
07:23Oh, that'll be real good, Mrs. Davidson.
07:26Well, all that remains now is to find two witnesses.
07:30Yeah, well, we talked about that before in Mr. Reid's office, and, uh...
07:34Well, we think it'd be quite nice to...
07:36Yeah, if you and Mrs. Jackson...
07:37Uh, only if you wanted to, Mrs. Davidson.
07:40I mean, I know you probably wouldn't, but I'd like you to give me away.
07:43I mean, I know you're the governor and everything, but...
07:45And you wouldn't probably want to do it, but, um...
07:48Well, my mum would have liked it.
07:50And I'd understand if you didn't want to.
07:54I would be delighted to do it, Doreen.
07:57Oh, gee, thanks.
07:59Well, I think that's all.
08:00Mr. Reid seems to have everything under control.
08:02Well, there is something else, Mrs. Davidson.
08:06I don't have to wear my uniform, do I?
08:08I think it would be nicer if you wore something more appropriate for the occasion.
08:12Do you have anything?
08:13No.
08:14You see, Kevin's mum and I, well, we only bought the truiser.
08:18Oh, I see.
08:18Look, I could get you something to wear, Doreen.
08:21Oh, don't worry, I'll get you something real nice, but...
08:24Well, you've got to tell me your size.
08:27Oh, yeah.
08:28Yeah.
08:32Hello, Miss Bennetts.
08:39You're becoming quite a familiar face in the art world.
08:42I never realised that prison officers are quite so sensitive.
08:44I've come to collect my painting.
08:46Well, I'm totally sorry.
08:47The framing's not finished yet.
08:48I don't care whether it's framed or not.
08:50I want it back, Mr. Austin.
08:51Why this sudden rush?
08:54I'm going to return it to Kerry Vincent, if you must know.
08:57Ah, so you've decided not to force her into giving you the painting after all, eh?
09:01I would have thought a man in your position would know better than to believe the word of a criminal.
09:05She's not a criminal, Miss Bennetts.
09:06She's an artist.
09:07An artist.
09:08Anyway, I'm only going on what I read in the papers.
09:11You were the one who gave them the story.
09:13I was only protecting my client, that's all.
09:15Look, what seems to be the hold-up here, hmm?
09:19Well, I don't really see that it's any of your business, but Miss Bennetts wants back a painting she was having a friend.
09:26Hmm.
09:27Well, that's the lady's business, then, isn't it?
09:30So why don't you be a good wee laddie and go and wrap it up for us, eh?
09:35Yes, all right.
09:41That's all right.
09:42Listen, Miss Bennetts, why don't you and I go out tonight and show the whole lot of them
09:47that you can't keep two good officers down, eh?
09:50Unless, of course, you've got something better to do than to be winding down by a born old scrubber of myself.
09:56No, not at all.
09:57That'd be very nice, thank you.
09:58Right.
09:58And to hell with presents and all who rot in them.
10:06Oh, bloody mongrel thing!
10:08What are you doing, Lizzie?
10:10I knew they hadn't chucked them away.
10:13Chucked what away?
10:14The costumes.
10:16You remember?
10:17When we did Ali Barbara and the 40 Thieves for the kids in the nursery.
10:22Oh, yeah?
10:23I thought we could cut them up and use them for material for your play.
10:27I reckon Mr. Pearce would be real pleased.
10:30Dum, dum, da-dum.
10:33Dum, dum, da-dum.
10:36Guess what?
10:36You're not.
10:39Yes, tomorrow afternoon in the garden.
10:42You mean you and Kev are getting married in the prison.
10:45Yeah, but it'll still be fair dinkum, Lizzie.
10:47Oh, dum.
10:48Oh, good on you, mate.
10:49About bloody time.
10:50Oh, thanks.
10:51I'm only allowed to ask my closest friends,
10:54so I thought I'd ask Bea, Lizzie, Judy, Kerry and Roz if she's allowed.
10:59You left me out?
11:00Ah.
11:01If she'd invite the whole prison, you'd be left out.
11:04It won't feel the same, though, if you don't get married in a church.
11:07Oh, bull.
11:08Of course it will.
11:09As long as you're tired of not.
11:10What's the matter with him, Doreen?
11:12You know, a queen or something.
11:15Must be if he gets married to you.
11:17You shut your filthy mouth.
11:19There was no need for that, Gilmore.
11:21Why, Mr Fletcher, I'd forgotten you were still here.
11:25You're going to spend 24 hours with us now you've got nothing to go home to.
11:32You're a vaulting little worm.
11:35Since when have you been worried about a screw's feelings?
11:39His wife and both his kids were killed.
11:44Now, unless you want the same thing to happen to you, I'd get out of here.
11:48Okay.
11:49But I only wanted to tell you about Vera.
11:51She's been suspended.
11:52I heard the screws talking.
11:53Something about her making Kerry give her a painting in return for paints and stuff.
12:00Is that true?
12:01No.
12:03I mean, that's what I told the governor.
12:05My agent thought it would be good publicity.
12:07Oh, I didn't want her to get the sack.
12:09I just wanted to, well, get back at it for being rough on me.
12:14Oh, better tell Mrs Davidson the truth.
12:16No way.
12:18If they want to find out the truth, let them find it out for themselves.
12:24They've been looking for a way to get rid of Vera for years.
12:26I was suspended once before.
12:38Did you know that?
12:39Accused of hitting a prisoner.
12:42Smith, Birdsworth and Ferguson.
12:44They wanted to get rid of me.
12:47They're afraid of me.
12:49And why?
12:50Because I'm so good at my job.
12:54I am.
12:58I'm always one step ahead of them.
13:01So they set me up.
13:02But it's on my record.
13:06Even though I was innocent, the department won't like me being reported twice.
13:10Would you, uh, like some of my wine?
13:13Oh, it's so expensive.
13:13You only live once and I believe in making it come.
13:16I've worked in prison since I was 21.
13:24I know every regulation, every prisoner, everything.
13:29I could have been governor one day.
13:34There'd be no trouble if I was in charge.
13:36I'd never take the word of a criminal against an officer.
13:39If I do have to find another job, they're not looking for experience anymore.
13:53All they're after is some giggling little thing in a short skirt who can sit around looking pretty all day.
13:58You'd run rings around them.
14:03People frighten me, Jock.
14:05Let's trip the light fantastic, eh?
14:09I'm not very good.
14:13You just follow me.
14:14We'll show them how.
14:30I'm not going to let a crim get rid of a good officer, Vera.
14:33You just leave it to me and I'll make sure the truth comes out.
14:39Look at them winning in the church.
14:43We could all get out for the day.
14:45Oh, I suppose you'd like the reception at the Hilton.
14:48Yeah, that's a pub, isn't it?
14:51Starting to get the shakes a bit, Mrs Jackson.
14:54How's it going now you've got Vera off your back?
14:56Oh, I've got to admit I can concentrate more.
15:02All right, ladies.
15:03Move along.
15:10Miss Banner asked me to give you this.
15:12I've been checking up your file, Vincent.
15:21Drunk.
15:22Prostitute.
15:24Killed a client for criticising you.
15:26Miss Banner criticised you too, didn't she?
15:28She doesn't know anything about me or my work.
15:31Well, she knew enough to like that.
15:32And if you don't tell the governor that,
15:39I'll see to you that you never pay him again.
15:45At least not in prison.
15:46All right.
16:09Now, the vows are very simple,
16:12and all you have to do is repeat them after me.
16:14Right.
16:14Now, all you have to remember is when the questions are asked,
16:16you say, I will.
16:18Right.
16:19Now, when you put the ring on Doreen's finger...
16:21Oh, yeah, I almost forgot.
16:23You left this in the interview room a couple of weeks ago,
16:25and I think you'd be wearing it now
16:27before I put the other one on.
16:30Have you found a verse you like yet?
16:32Oh, yeah.
16:33But could you excuse me?
16:34I've got to talk to Mrs Jackson for a minute.
16:36I take it there is someone to give the bride away.
16:38I don't know which one to pick.
16:39I don't understand what half of them even mean.
16:41I'll see if I can find one suitable.
16:43Yeah, well, see, I don't want Kevin to think I'm dumb or anything.
16:46Yes, um, Kevin Arnold Burns and Doreen May...
16:49Have you seen the dress he's bought me?
16:51No, Mr Stewart checked it in.
16:53What if it's really awful?
16:55Well, Kevin's got good taste, hasn't he?
16:59Look, I had to tell them, David.
17:01I was just trying to embellish Kerry's situation a little, that's all.
17:08Because of your little embellishment,
17:11an officer's reputation, not to mention the prisons,
17:13has been discredited.
17:16You're not going to stop a painting because of this, are you?
17:18Thank you, Mr Stewart.
17:19You can take Vincent back now.
17:20Vincent is still an inmate,
17:31and I assure you I will not hesitate to withdraw her privileges
17:34if there is any more trouble.
17:37I take it this little exercise was simply to increase your sales?
17:43I was trying to help her parole.
17:46You're still going to recommend that, aren't you?
17:47But I am not recommending she be paroled into your custody.
17:53Now, look, Mrs Davidson.
17:55I'm her mentor. She's my protege.
17:57She's going to be great.
17:59And no prison's going to stand in her way.
18:00That is entirely up to her, Mr Austin.
18:04I knew it. Everything's going wrong.
18:07Well, didn't you tell him what size you were?
18:11Doreen?
18:13Well, yeah, but I told him I was a size smaller.
18:16Oh, God.
18:17Well, I didn't want him to think I was chubby.
18:20He's going to find out sooner or later.
18:22Yeah, but then I'll have six months to diet, won't I?
18:25Give it to me, Doreen.
18:26Someone in the laundry can let it out.
18:29Oh, and there's no need to panic.
18:30We've got plenty of time.
18:32Kevin's gone and forgotten to put in stockings too, Mrs Jackson.
18:35Oh, don't worry about that.
18:37I'll just go...
18:37I'll just go down and borrow a pair.
18:41And make sure you do ask for them, Lizzie, please.
18:44Now, will you stop rowing?
18:46It'll be ready in no time.
18:49I never should have rushed into it.
18:51Oh, so you're almost ready.
18:53What are you doing here?
18:55Judy's not coming to your wedding.
18:57She said she doesn't want to.
18:58Well, it just so happens Judy beat you to it.
19:02And she said she was feeling crook.
19:05Yeah, and it's any wonder living in the same cell with you, faceache.
19:12Getting married.
19:13Well, that's typical, isn't it?
19:14They're so busy allowing that sort of charade to go on
19:16that they don't know what's happening underneath their noses.
19:19Look, you're back.
19:20That's the main thing.
19:22Yes.
19:22Well, I don't know how you did it, but thank you.
19:25Just took a bit of detective work, that's all.
19:27Yes, sir.
19:34I'd like that word with Doreen Anderson, thanks.
19:36I got a visit with her yesterday.
19:39Against regulations, two visits in as many days.
19:41Oh, do me a favour.
19:43Come on, look, it's urgent.
19:44It's business.
19:46Is there a better sell in that house?
19:49See, those interview rooms are smaller than you might think.
19:52It's our job to keep our ears open
19:53in case some things are said that shouldn't be said.
19:56Yeah, well, it's in her interest, you see.
19:59Look, we're prepared to offer her a little bit more money.
20:03Eh?
20:03I'm sure a girl in her position can use every bit of help she can get.
20:06Something old, something new, and I want that back.
20:14Something borrowed.
20:16Well, your stockings are borrowed.
20:18And something blue.
20:20What is that?
20:22It's a bit of old uniform.
20:24I can't carry all this, Lizzie.
20:26Of course you can.
20:27Just shove them down your front.
20:28It's bad luck if you don't.
20:31I, um, I sawed you mud like this.
20:35Oh, Kerry, it's gorgeous.
20:37Where'd you get it?
20:38Oh, I made it.
20:39Well, it'll last.
20:40It's paper.
20:41Oh, thanks, Kerry.
20:43Oh, not now.
20:44Well, I could tell, do we?
20:46Doreen, there's someone at reception
20:47wanting to speak to you about selling your mother's house.
20:50But I don't want to sell it.
20:51I want to keep it.
20:52Kevin and I are going to live in it when I get out of here,
20:54and I won't change my mind.
20:55Atta girl.
20:58All right, I'll help Doreen with the rest.
21:00You lot better go out to the garden.
21:02Well, goodbye, Doreen Anderson.
21:06Hello, this is Kevin Burns.
21:08Oh, Doreen.
21:11You will be all borrowed up.
21:24We're here today to share in a marriage ceremony
21:50between Doreen May Anderson and Kevin Arnold Burns.
21:56My name is Sandra Peterson,
21:58and I am duly authorized by law
22:00to solemnize this sure marriage
22:02according to the laws of this country.
22:05Before you, Doreen Anderson,
22:07and you, Kevin Burns,
22:09are joined in marriage in my presence
22:10and the presence of your friends,
22:12I am to remind you of the binding nature
22:16of the relationship that you are about to end in.
22:22Marriage, as most of us understand it,
22:24is a voluntary and final commitment
22:26of a man to a woman
22:28and a woman to a man.
22:31It is made in the deepest sense
22:33to the exclusion of all others
22:35and is entered into with the desired hope
22:38and the firm intention
22:39that it will last for life.
22:44What's the matter with that?
22:45We're offering a good money, aren't we?
22:47Doesn't mean much to some people.
22:50I can't understand it myself,
22:51being a man who likes the finer things of life.
22:57I'll tell you what, though.
23:00I'm a bit of a businessman myself.
23:02I might be able to help you fellas out.
23:03But, I mean,
23:05Anderson can't very well send me away, can she?
23:10We will not wish you joy on this great day,
23:13for joy is in your hearts
23:15and goes with you along the fragrant,
23:18mystic, sunlit way.
23:20We will not wish you joy while love is new,
23:23but this our wish,
23:25may you be strong enough to shelter love
23:27and keep it safe from harm.
23:31When winds blow high
23:32and roads are steep and rough,
23:35may you protect your love
23:36and preserve its charm.
23:41Kevin Arnold Burns.
23:44Will you love her
23:46and respect her?
23:48Be honest with her
23:49and stand by her,
23:51whatever may come,
23:53so you can genuinely share your lives together?
23:57I will.

24:10so you can genuinely share your lives together?
24:12I will.
24:16I will now ask you to make your marriage vows.
24:20Face each other,
24:22holding hands,
24:23and repeat the vows after me.
24:25With this ring,
24:31I thee wed.
24:33Take it

28:09and the best I can hope for is we'll still be coming to the prison

28:21well congratulations Doreen
28:25Carrie said you look fantastic

28:31oh Carrie this is the nicest picture I've ever seen thanks
28:35alright the wedding's over Anderson
28:39this should have been taken back to reception
28:41her name's Burns
28:43Mrs. Burns
28:45I'll call her what I like
28:47I'll check it before it goes back
28:49oh careful Miss Bennet you're crushing it all
28:52oh come on Miss Bennet's got to have a really good perv
28:54after all it's the closest she's ever going to get to a wedding dress
28:58get out of here all of you
28:59not you Vincent
29:01not a word with you
29:03oh welcome back Vera
29:06if God had meant us to keep away from many
29:13it had made the world into two big prisons
29:15go on
29:17yeah
29:19anyone would reckon
29:21it's the biggest crime in the book in this place
29:23if they don't seem to care if two women get together
29:25oh Judy I'm sorry I only meant you
29:28I know what you meant love
29:29it's just that they haven't got their heads screwed on right that's all
29:32we used to have a girl in here once
29:34Marilyn
29:34we were having the place rewired
29:37and that's how she got to meet Eddie
29:38we used to keep the screws real busy
29:41so that she could spend some time alone with him
29:43yeah do you reckon you could do that for me and Kevin
29:46next time he comes in
29:47oh come off it
29:48Eddie had free run of this place
29:49you and Kevin hardly even get out of the interview room
29:51I wasn't thinking of Dora
29:54I was thinking of you and Ken
29:56oh you must have been a rocker
29:58I hate that woman
30:02why does she have to be so bloody nasty
30:04well you were the one that owned up
30:06what are you expecting to do
30:07get on her knees and thank you
30:08would be easier for you and Ken be
30:10because at least he's allowed in all parts of the prison
30:13even like in here
30:14hey where did Marilyn and what's his name go
30:16up there or in the storeroom
30:19I can just see Ken and me scrambling up a ladder
30:22well not exactly Marilyn and Eddie you know
30:25besides
30:26who said Ken would be even interested
30:28oh
30:29he likes you doesn't he
30:30and he is a man
30:32yes
30:32who says you'd get caught
30:35well I just want a chance to make a fool out of some of the screws
30:40you mean you got an idea
30:41maybe
30:42actually Lizzie gave it to me
30:44yeah
30:44yeah
30:45Ali Barber and the 40 Thieves
30:47that's right
30:48aye
30:49I have already explained Miss Bennet
30:53that in my opinion
30:54Vincent was influenced by her agent at the time
30:57and had no idea that her accusation would cause such repercussions
31:02well don't you think we're getting off the track
31:03letting Vincent give art classes isn't exactly giving her another privilege
31:07it's for the women
31:08maybe she's trying to make up for what she did
31:10rubbish
31:10she can't be trusted
31:11well they're going to be held before work
31:14so I can't see that it's going to interfere with routine
31:16well how are we going to supply all the equipment
31:18I have already spoken to Ken Pierce
31:20he can arrange the necessary items without any expense to the prison
31:23then I don't see why there was any point in asking us what we feel about it
31:27I have contacted the same newspaper which published the so-called blackmail story
31:33and they are sending in a reporter to sit in on the classes
31:37the last time a reporter was here the women smuggled out information with him
31:41they are not to be told that the reporter will be here Miss Bennet
31:45besides I think it's time Wentworth received some good publicity for a change
31:50I wish Jude was here
31:54yeah she's missing out on all the fun
31:56listen um
31:58there's going to be some trouble in a minute
32:00so when it happens just go to the storeroom at once
32:02what are you talking about
32:03don't ask any questions just do it please
32:05Bill will explain everything to you later
32:07look trust us
32:10well I saw that you old thief give him back
32:17I never took nothing
32:18don't start anything hunt
32:20it isn't me it's her
32:21oh leave her alone
32:22oh shut up
32:23don't you dare call me
32:24oh she started
32:29no I never did
32:30Lizzie pinched me pencils
32:31oh there they are
32:34I'll pick them up for you Phil
32:35they must have fallen off the chair
32:37oh thanks
32:38sorry Lizzie
32:39oh that's alright Phil
32:40any more of this nonsense
32:41and we'll stop the classes altogether
32:43understand
32:43okay now if everybody's ready
32:45let's just get on with it huh
32:46where's Mr Pierce
32:49oh I think he must have gone to get some more things Miss Bennet
32:51ladies
32:52this gentleman is here as an observer
32:56I trust you will remember
32:59there is a guest in the room
33:00would you like to sit down
33:02thank you
33:02carry on
33:06right uh
33:08V would you like to go and get changed
33:10yeah okay
33:11okay um
33:14now B's going to be changing
33:15she's going to be our model for us
33:16but while she's changing
33:17I'll just explain the pencils
33:18we're going to use
33:19that sort of thing
33:20now it's always best to use
33:21you've got to use a very soft pencil
33:22you've got to use a very heavy accented line crossing a lighter unaccented line
33:27I'll explain that later when I draw
33:28all right
33:29now
33:29are you ready for me
33:31uh yeah come in
33:33now always make sure when you're concentrating on the garment that you use a model
33:39that's right
33:41you see you need to have a body underneath to see how the clothes wrinkle and fall
33:44you know that sort of thing
33:45and make sure that the pose doesn't distort the garment
33:49I think it's always best to turn the subject around to begin with
33:52because you can get a clear view all right
33:54now if you all take up your pencils
33:55we can start
33:57I wouldn't do anything to get you into strife King
34:06you know you women have got so much initiative
34:08it's a wonder any of you ended up inside at all
34:11I feel such an idiot
34:14why
34:16because I'm a woman close on 40
34:20and I'm hiding in a cupboard
34:22well that makes two of us
34:23the worst thing is that
34:26now we are alone together
34:30I don't know what to say
34:31do we have to say anything
34:35it's just nice to know we're not being watched
34:38yeah
34:40yeah I need to say something
34:43I'm
34:46probably going to have to make do
34:49with these few minutes for the next ten years
34:51when you're on the outside
34:54you think you could all the time in the world
34:56tell someone
34:56what you're feeling
34:59after you've been inside for a while
35:03you're
35:03lucky if you can remember what feeling means
35:07or if you do
35:10how do you
35:14how do you remember
35:18how do you remember
35:18to tell someone
35:19do you know what I feel about you B. Smith
35:29you're a mixture of anger
35:35and fury
35:37and a lot of strength
35:40you're a survivor
35:42but you've still got a lot of softness
35:49and
35:49honesty
35:51and warmth
35:53a woman like you
35:56is never going to know
35:57what it's like
35:58not to feel
35:59I reckon I'm a very lucky man
36:05even to have met you
36:06now the more intricate the garment
36:15of course the longer it's going to take
36:16but try not to finish any one section
36:18before you've taken the whole sketch
36:20otherwise you're likely to end up
36:21with things out of proportion
36:22not to mention perspective
36:24yeah that's alright
36:26but to make the hairdress look right
36:28I think you should draw in your head first
36:30yeah that's alright
36:32yeah yeah
36:33but to get the head right
36:34you have to determine the whole body
36:36that's right
36:37that's the head in relation to the legs
36:39and the arms etc
36:40give us a look
36:41yeah well
36:43that's alright
36:44actually with the shading there
36:46it's too horrific
36:47Mr Kelly I'm sure you've seen enough
36:49the women have to get to work now
36:51do you see an officer outside
36:53yeah yes well I think I've got it all
36:54thank you
36:55most interesting
36:57you've been conned Mr Stewart
37:01watch out me
37:05get out of there
37:07miss better this is what
37:08save it for the governor Mr Pierce
37:09although I'm sure she's not going to be
37:10too impressed with this sordid little affair
37:12he had nothing to do with it
37:13shut up Smith
37:13come along Mr Pierce
37:15hey give that back to me
37:21you bitch
37:21miss man
37:22stop her
37:22where do you put that down
37:24be she's the one that lagged on you
37:26get to your cell Gilmore
37:27you go with her Bryant
37:28until we decide what punishment to give you
37:30Anderson you better get to your cell too
37:32I think you've just had your last day
37:34working in the garden
37:34Smith
37:36Bird's worth
37:36the rest of you
37:37get to work
37:37until the governor decides
37:38what punishment to give you
37:39not you Vincent
37:40I would have thought a woman of your age
37:44would have a little bit more dignity
37:46Smith
37:46clean up this mess
37:53and after that get to your cell
37:54I think this little piece of stupidity
37:57has just cost you the right to paint
37:59a reporter was in that room Mr Pierce
38:03luckily Miss Bennett had the presence of mind
38:05to see that he left in time
38:07can you imagine what the papers would have done
38:10with a story like that
38:12they would have probably seen it
38:13for what it was Mrs Davidson
38:14a situation quite normal and harmless
38:16I am well aware
38:18it is not easy for the women in here
38:20especially those serving long sentences
38:22however you were placed in a position of trust
38:26we have had other men on our staff
38:28but you are the first to have abused that position
38:31for spending ten minutes alone with Bea talking
38:34the rules are there to protect the women
38:36you were placed in a very responsible position
38:45Mr Pierce
38:46as far as I am concerned
38:50you cannot handle that responsibility
38:52I have no alternative but to ban you from Wentworth
38:57and to send a full report to the department
39:00well I would like to add a footnote to that report
39:03Mrs Davidson
39:04quote
39:05rehabilitation is a joke
39:08as long as the authorities minds stay in the dark ages
39:10unquote
39:11goodbye Mr Pierce
39:14goodbye Mrs Davidson
39:16it seems I should have listened to you about the art classes
39:26oh what's going to happen to Vincent
39:29confiscate her art materials
39:31and Smith
39:32she used to be without privileges for a week
39:35she should be in solitary
39:36I think Smith has been punished quite enough
39:40well they know it was Gilmore who warned us
39:43they're going to try and get back at her
39:44yes
39:45move her to a single cell
39:48and have her rusted onto the kitchen
39:49and make it known
39:52that if anything happens to that girl
39:54Smith and her group
39:56will be held responsible
39:57well at least you got your own way
40:00except I'll be the one moving out
40:02it should be nice being unmoaned for a change
40:05what are you looking at?
40:08don't you know what you've done?
40:10those women are in a hell of a lot of trouble
40:12because of you Sharon
40:12they asked for it
40:14bloody Doreen
40:16I hate her guts
40:17the way they've been treating me
40:19the way they've been treating you
40:20you stupid bitch
40:22you think the world owes you a living
40:24don't you?
40:25oh yeah you've always got your own way
40:26for everything
40:26okay I know that's my fault
40:27because I've given in to you all the time
40:29but I've turned you into a monster
40:30who can't think of anything
40:31but herself for more than two minutes
40:33and that's a pity Sharon
40:35because you've just lost your last friend
40:37well I don't need you looking after me anymore
40:40I can take care of myself
40:42anyhow the screws will be taking care of me
40:45from now on
40:45oh well I wouldn't bet on that
40:47you know what's funny
40:50you got yourself put in here to be near me
40:53now you're telling me to get lost
40:55and you've still got a year to serve
40:58for nothing
40:59I'd say that's pretty stupid
41:17glad I phoned your lawn at last lass
41:27I wanted to talk to you about
41:30selling your house
41:33I don't want to
41:36oh there's plenty of other houses you know
41:37yeah but that was my mother's
41:40and I want to live in it with me and Kevin
41:41you could be making a mistake
41:43what's it got to do with you Mr Stewart?
41:46I'm just interested in where you're going to finish up
41:48that's all
41:49well I know where I'm going to finish up
41:51and that's in my house with Kevin
41:52no it's not
41:53how do you know?
41:57let's just say I think you should
41:58reconsider
42:00for your own sake
42:01you can't tell me what to do with things like that
42:06I'll go and tell Mrs Davidson
42:08let's go when you've changed your mind love
42:13oh incidentally I um
42:39I wouldn't tell anyone about a wee talk
42:42that we had
42:43because I wouldn't like that
42:44not that anyone would believe you
42:46in any case
42:46it would only be your word against mine
42:48and after that
42:50Kerry Vincent episode
42:52I don't think people would be too keen
42:54in taking the word of a crime again
42:55do you?
42:57good
42:57I'll be back in five minutes
43:00just letting you pull yourself together
43:03what are you doing here?
43:20Smith and her lot are out to get me
43:21I want protection
43:23you'll be safe
43:24I hate them as much as you do Mr Stewart
43:27I was just thinking
43:29maybe you and I could be of use to each other
43:32in what way?
43:36well
43:36you could always see I get a few of the comforts of home
43:40and I'll keep quiet about what I just heard
43:43you know
43:50I think you and I are gone just fine Gilmore
43:54just fine
43:55oh please just leave me some paintings
44:05I'm confiscating everything Vincent
44:07but I have to work
44:09look it's my life
44:10it's the only thing that matters to me
44:12can't you understand that?
44:14I know what it's like to lose something that matters
44:17if you remember I almost lost my job
44:18oh that's not the same thing at all
44:20you break the rules
44:20you take the consequences
44:21they'd put me in solitary
44:23I don't care but let me work
44:24leave me with something
44:25no
44:26no it's too wet
44:27please wait till it dries
44:28I'm taking the lot Vincent
44:29now out of my way
44:30no
44:31does that make you happy?
44:38your temper is what got you in here
44:40in the first place Vincent
44:41I'd watch it if I were you
44:43I thought you'd forgotten all about me
44:50quite the opposite Lizzie
44:51over the last few days
44:53I've thought of little else but you
44:54yeah
44:55Captain Barton told me
44:57he's been trying to trace your children
44:59oh
45:00I didn't want to get him into any strife
45:04Mrs Davidson
45:04you haven't
45:05Captain Barton thought you'd like to know
45:07what he's found out
45:08you mean you found out something about my kids
45:16well I went to the home where they put your children
45:19and from their records and what they can remember
45:21your two sons were fostered out relatively early
45:24now it could take quite some time to trace them through Jigsaw and other organisations
45:29and a lot depends on whether they wish to be contacted
45:31however we did have a little more luck with your daughter Marcia
45:34she left the home when she was 16
45:37kept in touch for some 8 years or so after that
45:40and the last they heard of her
45:42she said she was marrying someone in Melbourne
45:44that was some 20 years ago
45:46so I took the liberty of advertising
45:49and I got a reply
45:51a woman who says she is or was
45:54Marcia Birdsworth
45:55has answered the ad
45:57oh
46:12oh
46:12hang on

46:14listen

46:35he used to give me roses
46:42he used to give me roses
46:47I wish he could again
46:49I wish he could again
46:51but that was on the outside
46:57and things were different then
47:02on the inside
47:03the sun still shines
47:06and the rain falls down
47:12but the sun and rain are Christmas too
47:16when morning comes around
47:20last night I dreamed we were together
47:26sharing all the love we'd know
47:30love we'd know
47:33till I had to face the nightmare
47:37of waking up alone
47:42on the inside the roses grow
47:45when the roses grow
47:46they don't land the stony ground
47:48they don't land the stony ground
47:52but the roses here are Christmas too
