00:00I knew it wouldn't be too long before you ended up in this place.
00:03They never would have got me if I hadn't have wanted to come back.
00:08You.
00:12Doreen.
00:16I only came back so as I could see you.
00:19It's your fault, Frankie's dead.
00:23She never would have got out and been dead by now if it hadn't been for you.
00:27Doreen, that's not true.
00:29You killed her!
00:32Stop this!
00:33I'm going to get you!
00:35I'm going to get you for Frankie!
00:36You see?
00:37You see?
00:39She loved you but you made her run!
00:41Now she's dead!
00:59How did this happen?
01:04Bumped into a door.
01:06Asked Miss Bennet.
01:07Yes.
01:07A door with a right hook.
01:09Believe what you want.
01:10I hear Doreen Anderson is back.
01:15She certainly is.
01:16Gave herself up at the gate.
01:18She didn't stand a chance without Doyle.
01:19At least she had brains enough to realise that.
01:22Anyway, there were certain people she couldn't wait to see again.
01:25What do you mean?
01:26Ask Travers.
01:27She'll be moved to her old cell shortly.
01:30I think she's really looking forward to that, don't you Travers?
01:33You're the one who's looking forward to it.
01:35Did Doreen do that?
01:36Ask your patient, Doctor.
01:39I see.
01:40We're dealing with animals in here.
01:42They're bound to draw blood occasionally.
01:43Nothing much we can do about it.
01:45You could have her move to another cell.
01:46I don't see the point.
01:47These things happen.
01:48Did you report this to the Governor?
01:51Are you trying to tell me my job, Doctor?
01:53I think you know exactly what you're doing, Miss Bennet.
01:57Catherine, we've got to discuss it.
02:00You can't just sit there and pretend it's all a bad dream.
02:03Isn't it?
02:04We have to think seriously about what Mr Wilson said.
02:08About your plea.
02:09I do wish you hadn't sent Sarah to stay with your sister.
02:12Oh, look.
02:13She and Viv get along just fine.
02:14We have to talk.
02:16She didn't want to go.
02:17But it's better for her not to have to hear all this.
02:20Oh, better for her not to be with her emotionally unstable mother.
02:24I expect that's what you mean.
02:25Look, you know, it's not like that, Catherine.
02:28Oh, blast.
02:29Now, who's that?
02:29Oh, if it's Mrs Pringle, tell her I'll take the tickets to the club tomorrow.
02:33I don't want to see her now.
02:34I should phone Diane McMillan.
02:36She'll be expecting a call about that committee.
02:39Yes?
02:39Mr Roberts?
02:40That's right.
02:41I'm Mrs Warren, Bert Warren's wife.
02:43Oh, look, I don't know that this is quite...
02:46I've got something to say.
02:47Let me in, please.
02:49Catherine.
02:49And Mrs Warren?
02:50I heard.
02:52I won't sit down.
02:53I'm not staying long.
02:54What do you want?
02:55To see what sort of people you are.
02:57Well, now, you've seen us.
02:58You can leave.
02:59Not before I've said what I've come to say, Mrs Roberts.
03:01Look, Mrs Warren, I think perhaps you'd better go.
03:03I've got something to say, and you're going to listen.
03:06My husband worked for you for eight years.
03:08He was a decent, hard-working man.
03:11You know as well as I do.
03:13He didn't lay a hand on your daughter.
03:14Look, Mrs Warren, I'm as sorry as you are over what happened, but I don't think there's any point in...
03:18My husband's dead.
03:19What do you know about sorry?
03:21Please, Mrs Warren.
03:23People who know Bert, they know he couldn't do a thing like that.
03:27Your wife must be mad, and your daughter too, to do what they've done.
03:32I think you've said enough.
03:34Please go.
03:35And then what?
03:36What happens to me?
03:38All my life, my husband worked for somebody else.
03:41He made money for people like your husband.
03:43All he ever took home was his salary.
03:46And now, because of you, I've got no one.
03:49Nothing.
03:50You can say you're sorry, but that doesn't help me.
03:53Just tell me what I'm expected to do now, on my own.
03:57Look, this might not be the best time to discuss all this sort of thing,
04:00but perhaps tomorrow's...
04:02If you see this woman again, it must be in front of our lawyer.
04:07I don't know anything to do with lawyers.
04:09Well, it's either that, or you don't speak to him at all.
04:14Ken?
04:15Yes, perhaps that might be best.
04:18All right.
04:20When?
04:23I'll ring you this evening.
04:24I've got your number.
04:25Oh, I'm sure you have.
04:30The consulate was the focal point of the protest,
04:41but the 250 police on duty made sure that the marchers kept moving.
04:46What happened to you?
04:48Doreen?
04:49Doreen punched you in the eye?
04:51Mm-hmm.
04:51I don't believe it.
04:53You don't have to take my word for it.
04:54Vera's moving her into our cell.
04:56You'll have her inside seat.
04:57Oh, don't worry.
04:58I don't intend to let any fighting interrupt my beauty sleep.
05:02Oh, Frankie must have taught her some bad habits.
05:05We'll have to rehabilitate her.
05:07Hey, quiet.
05:08Listen.
05:09...was committed for trial on a charge of murder today.
05:12She is Mrs. Catherine Roberts.
05:14Police say that Mrs. Roberts claimed the man raped her daughter.
05:17The dead man, Mr. Albert Warren,
05:18was crossing the road outside of Moot Bar when he was run down.
05:21He died shortly after being admitted to hospital.
05:24She is due...
05:25Well, good on her.
05:26You remember her, Bea?
05:27Real upper crust.
05:28Looking for the silver at tea time.
05:30Yeah, I remember her.
05:31Afraid of her own shadow.
05:32Just goes to show you,
05:34you can't judge a book by its cover.
05:36Even our Doreen's turning into a tiger.
05:38I want Doreen Anders to move to another cell.
05:44Put her in with Lizzie Birdsworth.
05:45Very well.
05:47I'm told she attacked Karen Travers
05:48and there's every likelihood it could happen again.
05:50I don't want them together.
05:51I suppose you've been talking to Dr. Miller.
05:54How do you know that?
05:55I took Travers to surgery.
05:58Did you witness the attack?
05:59Oh, I'd hardly call it an attack.
06:01It was a scuffle.
06:01Nothing to worry about.
06:02That is for me to decide.
06:04You are aware of the regulations.
06:06Why didn't you report it?
06:07I didn't think it was important.
06:09If I came to you every time
06:10one of the women took a swipe at someone,
06:12I wouldn't have time to perform my duties.
06:14May I remind you, Miss Bennet,
06:16that reporting such things to me
06:17is one of your duties.
06:19It was a minor incident.
06:20There is nothing minor
06:21about prisoners striking each other.
06:24I will not tolerate violence in this prison
06:26and I will not have my officers tolerating it either.
06:29I didn't just stand there.
06:30I broke it up as soon as it began.
06:31Then it was unwise of you not to report it.
06:34I trust you'll be more diligent in the future.
06:36It is not the responsibility of the prison doctor
06:39to come to me with such things.
06:41No, it's not.
06:44No doubt he has his reasons.
06:55Oh, we're not going to have the pleasure
06:56of your smiling face then, are we?
06:58Oh, go bite your bum.
06:59Hey, Doreen, there's nothing wrong with your mouth.
07:01You'd better keep it shut
07:02or your teeth might drop out.
07:03Shut up, Smith.
07:04She's moving in with Birdsworth.
07:06Governor's orders.
07:07Yeah, someone's been talking.
07:08I didn't say anything.
07:09You don't need to.
07:10Not when you've got a nice friend like Dr Miller.
07:12He'd hate to see anything happen
07:13to the lovely Mrs Travers.
07:15You needn't think me moving out
07:16is going to get you off the hook.
07:17Smith, Travers, find something to do
07:19or I'll find something for you.
07:20Anderson, whatever you have in mind, forget it.
07:27You're in enough trouble as it is.
07:29I don't care what grievances you may imagine you have,
07:31there will be no fighting with other prisoners.
07:33Do I make myself clear?
07:34Yeah.
07:35Now that you are back here,
07:36you will obey the rules just like everyone else
07:38or suffer the consequences.
07:40What are you going to do?
07:41Slap me on the wrist?
07:42You've been warned.
07:43Take it to her soul, Miss Bennett.
07:44Burtworth, Anderson's moving in with you.
07:53I'm sure you'll have lots to talk about.
07:56Oh, Doreen, I'm glad to see you back again,
08:00if you know what I mean.
08:01Big deal.
08:02Well, it wasn't the same without you here.
08:04Missed me, did you?
08:05Yeah, I reckon I did.
08:08Well, I didn't miss you.
08:09Oh.
08:11Had a good time on the outside, did you?
08:14Yeah.
08:16I was sorry to hear about Frankie.
08:18Shut up about Frankie.
08:20None of you are sorry about anything.
08:24Doreen, this is Margaret.
08:29What are you knitting?
08:31Bag to go over your head?
08:33Leave her alone.
08:34She's not all there.
08:35Don't you tell me what to do.
08:36I'll say what I like.
08:38Oh, gone all tough while we were on the outside, have we?
08:41Yeah, you better believe it.
08:42You're not so tough that you didn't come back.
08:45I've got me reasons.
08:46Hm.
08:47Cut it out, Doreen.
08:49I've known you too long.
08:51You can drop the act.
08:52You can't kid me.
08:53I'll drop you if you don't watch yourself.
08:55Just because I was your friend once doesn't make any difference.
08:58I don't need you.
09:00I don't need anybody.
09:01So keep away from me, both of you.
09:03Would you like a cup of coffee?
09:13What did I just say?
09:16Sit yourself.
09:24Three sugars.
09:25What's happened?
09:38One of the women hit me.
09:39What?
09:40Why not?
09:41This is a prison, not a girl guide can.
09:44Nice.
09:45Well, let's hope it's not too long before you're out of here.
09:47Yes, you seem to keep saying that.
09:50What are you doing here at this hour of the morning?
09:52It's the only time I've got.
09:53Well, I mean, Warner's trial comes up soon,
09:55and I'm defending a woman who ran down a man for raping her daughter.
09:59So, I've got a pretty full plate.
10:02Everybody seems to be getting something done around here but me,
10:05by the sound of things.
10:07I've already put your reasons for wanting a retrial before the Supreme Court.
10:11But we just have to be patient.
10:13That's how you keep telling me.
10:16There's a couple of few things here that I want you to sign,
10:18and I've got to go, I'm afraid.
10:23Hey, come on.
10:25Let's keep your faith a little longer, huh?
10:27Don't have much choice, do I?
10:31I want you out of here.
10:32You know that.
10:36Tell me what I'm signing.
10:40What have I done now?
10:41Wait till you've spoken to, Birdsworth.
10:42Lizzie, I've had a phone call from a Dr. Craw about your brother, Angus.
10:49Angus?
10:49He asked the doctor to contact you.
10:51What's the matter with him?
10:52It's bad news, I'm afraid.
10:54He's dying.
10:55Oh.
10:56He wants to see you.
10:57Does he just?
10:59I understand he's your only surviving relative.
11:01If you like, it could be arranged.
11:03Bugger him.
11:04What's your language?
11:06He never did a damn thing for me.
11:09He never wrote once in all these years.
11:12Even before that, he couldn't have a bar of me, not unless he wanted something.
11:15I lent him 50 quid once, and I never got that back.
11:19All he ever cared about was horses.
11:21Well, Lizzie, that may be so, but perhaps he wants to make his peace with you.
11:26Nah.
11:27He's up to something.
11:29He never was any good.
11:30Then you don't want to see him.
11:32He could have been dead these past 50 years for all the brother he's been to me.
11:37Well, I hope you won't regret it in the future.
11:40I've been in here too long for that, Mrs. Davidson.
11:44Can I go now?
11:46Yes.
11:55He says he's very busy at the moment.
11:58Got a plate for him.
11:59Oh, did you tell him you'd had a bucket full?
12:01He's going to represent that woman we saw on the news last night.
12:04What, the one that ran that bloke down?
12:06Oh, we can look forward to seeing her in here too then.
12:10Oh, joke, Joyce.
12:11I'm not in the mood.
12:12Oh, come on, love.
12:13Now, don't let it get you down.
12:15And don't start counting the days either.
12:17You'll go crackers.
12:18Everything happens in its own sweet time.
12:21She'll have to plead insanity, I suppose.
12:23Who?
12:23Oh, her.
12:25Insanity?
12:26Well, there's nothing insane in what she did.
12:27Oh, if I'd got my hands on the blokes that got my daughter hooked on drugs, the streets
12:31would have been piled high.
12:33That's what she'll have to plead, though, otherwise she won't stand a chance.
12:36Well, if I was in the jury, I wouldn't believe her.
12:37Everyone who kills someone these days says they were crazy at the time, as if you can
12:42be foaming at the mouth one minute and all right the next.
12:44It happens.
12:45Oh, look, either you're loony or you're not.
12:48You can't have it both ways.
12:50Well, you knew what you were doing, didn't you?
12:52It's not that simple.
12:53Well, well, the shearer's pin-up.
12:58Hey, what Davidson want?
12:59She reckons me brother's dying.
13:02I didn't even know he was alive.
13:04Hey, they're letting you out to see him.
13:06I can if I want to.
13:07Where are you going to go?
13:08I'm not.
13:10I don't want to see him.
13:12What do you mean you don't want to?
13:14If he's always a proper bastard to me, he can hold somebody else's hand.
13:18Oh, now, come on, that's not the point.
13:19Use your head.
13:20And how long have you been inside?
13:23Oh, years.
13:25And have you ever had a day out?
13:27Only with Doreen and Frankie.
13:29Yeah, and what'd you do then?
13:30Climb over the fence and have a heart attack doing that?
13:32Ha, ha, ha.
13:33It was worth it.
13:34Now, come on, don't be stupid.
13:36It doesn't matter how you feel about your brother.
13:38This is probably your last chance.
13:40Have a good look around outside.
13:42You'd be a bloody fool to turn it down.
13:45Next time you leave here, they'll be carrying you out.
13:48And you can bring a whole lot of prezzies back for your friends.
13:52Oh, yeah.
13:53So that's the real reason you're interested in me having a day out.
13:57That's a new stupid cow.
13:59When my daughter died, they wouldn't even let me out to go to her funeral.
14:03Now they're offering you a day out on a plate
14:05to see someone you don't even give a damn about.
14:07And you reckon you're not going to go.
14:09Well, I'm telling you, if you don't go, I'll break your bloody neck.
14:23Why this sudden change of heart?
14:26Well, I've been thinking it over real careful, Mrs Davidson,
14:31and I reckon I was a bit hasty, what with the shock and everything.
14:36After all, he is my brother.
14:39And I reckon if it's his last request,
14:41I should be big enough to forget our past differences
14:44and go to the poor old bloke if he's calling for me.
14:48I'm not getting any younger myself,
14:50and he's the only family I've got left,
14:53so I thought if he needs me,
14:55I should do what you say and go to him
14:57and make our peace.
14:59I'm glad.
15:00I think you've made the right decision.
15:02I'm sure you won't regret it.
15:03No, but how am I going to get to him?
15:06I mean, who's going to take me?
15:08I'll take her, Mrs Davidson.
15:09Oh, I couldn't go with you.
15:11Not in that uniform.
15:12People would stare at me.
15:14They'd think I was a criminal.
15:15Don't be stupid.
15:16You are a criminal.
15:17Thank you, Miss Bennet,
15:18but I think I'll take Lizzie to see her brother.
15:20If you want to accept the responsibility,
15:22don't forget she tried to escape with Doyle and Anderson.
15:25It's my opinion she doesn't deserve this privilege.
15:28I'll be the judge of that.
15:29I won't give you any trouble, Mrs Davidson, I promise.
15:34If you like, you may wear your own clothes.
15:36Yeah?
15:37Wear me own clothes?
15:39Oh, I reckon they're old enough to be back in fashion.
15:43Mrs Warren, this is Mr Wilson, my wife's lawyer.
15:46How do you do?
15:47Good.
15:47Sit down.
15:50Oh, my wife won't be with us, Mrs Warren.
15:52We thought it might be better that way.
15:54Mrs Warren, I won't waste your time or ours by beating around the bush.
15:58Now, I understand from Mr Roberts, you paid a visit on him last night,
16:01and to put it bluntly, demanded money from him.
16:04I didn't demand anything.
16:05I went to talk.
16:06Mm-hmm.
16:07About money.
16:08My husband worked for Mr Roberts for eight years.
16:12I appeal to whatever feelings of decency he might have,
16:16considering how Bert died.
16:18I feel I'm owed something for what I'm going through.
16:21I'm alone now.
16:23I'm just not going to shut myself away and be quiet about it.
16:28Blackmail is a serious offence, Mrs Warren.
16:30Don't use that tone of voice to me.
16:32I'm not blackmailing anyone.
16:33I could prove otherwise if you continue with this.
16:35You can't take away a man's life and give nothing in return.
16:41Mrs Warren, if there is any compensation due to you,
16:45then the courts should be decided.
16:46Until then, you won't receive as much as a penny from Mr Roberts.
16:50Now, I hope I make myself clear.
16:54You haven't any conscience at all, have you?
16:57You said last night you were sorry, but you don't give a damn.
17:00I hope your wife burns in hell for what she's done to me.
17:13Well, she's a crafty one.
17:16Grief-stricken one minute.
17:18Hard for every penny she can get the next.
17:19I think she knows what she's doing.
17:21Oh, I wouldn't bet on it.
17:23Couldn't we have done something for her?
17:26Mr Roberts, I've already explained to you,
17:29your wife is on trial for murder.
17:31Now, just think of how it would look
17:32if we paid the dead man's wife money.
17:34I suppose you're right.
17:35She'll be a witness for the prosecution.
17:37And they crucify us.
17:39I know you feel a certain responsibility,
17:41but you think about your wife.
17:43She is the one you should be worrying about.
17:45No-one else.
17:53Right, how are you going, Di?
17:55Great.
17:55Okay.
17:56Very good.
17:58Good girl, you've finished already.
18:03Last one to get it right is a rotten egghead.
18:06Oh, leave them alone, Doreen.
18:08Can't you see they're trying to learn something?
18:10Well, they're wasting their time then, aren't they?
18:11Has everyone finished the first one?
18:13Yeah.
18:14That's not right.
18:15You'd know.
18:16Teacher will be cross, dummy.
18:18Just ignore her, Di.
18:20Hey, Mrs Travers, this one's been cheating.
18:23What are you going to do about it?
18:24Keep her in after school?
18:26Rack off, Doreen.
18:28I wasn't talking to you, dopey.
18:30What are you?
18:31Teacher's pet?
18:33Well, you can go without your play lunch.
18:36Hey, Mrs Travers,
18:37what about teaching them some history?
18:41Get out.
18:50Make me.
18:51I'll make you.
18:53Don't stop it, Ian.
18:55God!
18:58You failed.
19:00Looks like I go to the top of the class.
19:02Now, I don't want to see you back in here again tomorrow.
19:06There's nothing wrong with you.
19:08Really?
19:09You heard the doctor.
19:16Yes, Miss Bennett.
19:17You'll be pleased to know that Anderson and Travers have been separated.
19:20Huh?
19:20Yes, the governor insisted on it.
19:24After you'd been to see her.
19:25I merely expressed an opinion and concern for the health of the prisoners.
19:28I think you should confine yourself to medical opinions.
19:31Their accommodation and general welfare is the concern of prison officers.
19:35If the women are going to assault each other, then I consider it my business.
19:38I'm the one who has to take care of them.
19:40Then treat them and leave the rest to us.
19:42You weren't going to do a thing.
19:43That's my prerogative.
19:44Is it?
19:45You do your job, doctor, and I'll do mine.
19:48Just don't meddle in things that don't concern you.
19:59You come down to earth yet?
20:02Drop off.
20:10What's my name?
20:12Bea.
20:12Well, you remember that much?
20:14Of course I remember.
20:15I thought you might have forgotten who ran this place while you were on the outside.
20:18Uh-huh.
20:18Then start acting like it.
20:20You might be up to bouncing a little dye around the floor and shooting your mouth off to impress the new girls,
20:24but none of that washes with me, Doreen.
20:27All right?
20:28All right?
20:30And I won't remind you again.
20:34I told the governor I'd go, and guess who's going with me?
20:37Oh.
20:38She is.
20:38Yeah?
20:39Yeah.
20:40And I can wear me own clothes.
20:41Oh, you look a right clown.
20:43Why?
20:44Well, bustles are out of fashion.
20:46This is the 20th century.
20:47But you wouldn't know that.
20:48Well, not that old.
20:50Anyway, I reckon it's a great honour to be going out with a governor in person.
20:56You would, you dumb old mole.
20:58Well, it is.
20:59Of course it is.
21:01Isn't it, Doreen?
21:03What's the matter with her, Bea?
21:12What's she trying to prove?
21:13I don't know.
21:15But she's going to find herself in a heap of trouble if she doesn't wake up to herself.
21:18Would you like a drink?
21:28No.
21:30Well, don't worry.
21:32I'm not turning into an alcoholic.
21:34Even your mother says there's nothing wrong with her, shall we?
21:37All right.
21:37I didn't say anything.
21:39I'll get you some lunch.
21:41Catherine, have you given any thought to your plea?
21:52Yes.
21:53I'm not going to plead insanity.
21:55Uh, temporary insanity.
21:56There is a difference.
21:57Oh, if there is, I can't see it.
21:58Well, darling, you've got to give yourself a chance.
22:00I am not mad.
22:01I'm not going to have people thinking I'm some sort of nut that's got to be locked up in a padded room.
22:06Oh, I don't care what people think.
22:07I don't want to lose you.
22:09Oh, what about Sarah?
22:11I was thinking of Sarah when I did what I did.
22:14I was trying to protect her and now they want to lock me away.
22:18Oh, don't look at me like that.
22:20Do you think I'm some sort of maniac too?
22:22We've got to prove that you're not some sort of cold-blooded murderer.
22:31What happened with Mrs. Warren?
22:34Wilson decided we shouldn't pay her a cent.
22:35It would only damage your case.
22:36You're not seriously thinking of paying her, are you?
22:39Oh, look, I don't know what I was thinking of.
22:41She bursts into our home and she says the filthiest things a minute.
22:45Please, Catherine, I don't want to talk about it.
22:46She won't come near us anymore, all right?
22:48Where did you get the money for my bail?
22:55You'll have to worry about that.
22:56No, where?
22:57Where?
22:57I want to know.
22:58Well, I arranged to increase my overdraft.
23:01And how are we going to pay Mr. Wilson?
23:06He'll put it in his account when it's all over.
23:07You don't have to worry about that now.
23:10We're going to have to sell the beach cottage, aren't we?
23:12Well, I don't know.
23:13Possibly.
23:14Nobody has enough ready cash for this sort of thing.
23:17This won't affect Sarah, will it?
23:19Her school fees?
23:20Oh, of course not.
23:22Look, it's not as if we were penniless.
23:24We'll just have to juggle a few things, that's all.
23:27Don't get upset.
23:28There's nothing you'd worry about.
23:38I got this letter from my dad,
23:40and you said if I ever wanted to talk about anything...
23:43Sure.
23:45What's the problem?
23:46Well, I don't know.
23:48It's not awful or anything, just a bit strange.
23:51Would you like me to read the letter?
23:53Thanks.
23:55He never was much for writing.
23:57He says they never come out the way he wants.
24:00Mum's the one who writes to everyone.
24:02He's got a nice hand, though.
24:03That's what Mum says.
24:05She gets him to write on the Christmas cards.
24:08Well, he says here he's coming to see you.
24:10Well, that's good news, isn't it?
24:13I suppose so.
24:15Oh, why aren't you sure?
24:17Is he usually more affectionate in his letters?
24:19No, like I said, he doesn't normally write.
24:21Mum does that.
24:22He just seems so distant.
24:26Well, how do you think he felt when you and Doug left home like that?
24:31I suppose he was angry.
24:33He didn't ever like Doug.
24:36Didn't trust him.
24:38Dad didn't really know Doug that well.
24:40Not like I did.
24:41Do you think he could have felt a little bit hurt?
24:46I hadn't really thought about it.
24:49Do you love your father?
24:51Oh, always.
24:53When I was a kid, I used to brag about how he was the best dad in the whole world.
24:57And do you think he knows that?
24:58I mean, after all, you just did leave home without even saying goodbye.
25:03Well, I wrote them a note.
25:04It's hardly the same, is it?
25:08What do you think he means by a few problems?
25:12I don't know.
25:13Me, I suppose.
25:14Oh.
25:16There you go again, feeling sorry for yourself.
25:18The question is, what are you going to do about it?
25:20Well, I suppose when he comes, if he comes, that is,
25:27I'll just have to try and let him know that I really am very sorry
25:31for all the trouble I've caused him, and not just for myself.
25:40Thanks.
25:45You two wouldn't last five minutes outside on a run.
25:48You've got to think fast, keep one step ahead of yourself,
25:51and you can't relax for a minute.
25:53Bet you slept with one eye open all the time.
25:55Who said anything about sleep?
25:57Close your eyes and you're gone.
25:58You must have slept some time.
26:00Yeah.
26:02Once.
26:03I had half an hour.
26:05I needed it.
26:07Hey, isn't that wonky Warner?
26:09A lad out without a leash, are you, wonk?
26:14Hey, wonk.
26:15Given any blood lately?
26:18Oops.
26:32Oops.
26:40Ah.
26:41I thought he'd be hurt.
26:44Stop.
26:45Get him.
26:45Get him.
26:46Get him.
26:46Get him.
26:47What's going on here?
26:50Oh, I've been keeping an eye on things.
26:51I think I should break that up.
26:54Anderson, break it up.
26:57Stop that.
26:57Stop that. So who started this?
26:59She's having a bit of fun, that's all.
27:00Yeah, a friendly wrestle. No harm done.
27:03Come with me, Lynn.
27:06Your father's here.
27:08He's with Mrs Davidson at the moment.
27:10Now, I suggest you go and tidy up.
27:12She can't seem to stay out of trouble, can she?
27:15You better watch you don't go too far, Anderson.
27:17All I did was accidentally stand on one of the veggies.
27:20You saw it, didn't you?
27:22Yeah, I saw it.
27:32Lunch already, is it?
27:35How's the rest of the world getting on without me?
27:38We'll survive.
27:40Any chance of a book?
27:42You're getting lonely, Davidson.
27:44I sure am.
27:45That's the idea.
27:50Bastard.
28:06Hello, Lynn.
28:08Dad.
28:09Would you like to sit down?
28:20Sir, how have you been?
28:22I'm all right.
28:24Is Mum okay?
28:27She's in hospital.
28:28What?
28:29What?
28:31You heard.
28:32In hospital?
28:33Why?
28:34I would have thought that'd be obvious.
28:37Well, tell me what's wrong with her.
28:41She took a bit of a turn after she heard what you'd done.
28:43It was on the television and the radio and the whole town knew about it.
28:49Oh, is she going to be all right?
28:54We don't know.
28:56Well, why didn't you write and tell me?
28:59I couldn't see the point.
29:02How can you say that she's my mother?
29:06Well, that's never mattered to you before.
29:09What we feel and what we think hasn't made a damn thing to you.
29:13You just went on your way, getting into one fix after another, each one worse than before.
29:17Doing what you want to do.
29:19Not thinking of anyone else.
29:22Well, your mother can't take any more.
29:25Neither can I.
29:29Look, excuse me, Mr. Warner, I don't think you can...
29:31Oh, do you mind for...
29:31It's bad enough having weaves dropping in the same room without butting into something.
29:34It's not your business.
29:35I think I know what I'm talking about.
29:37She's my daughter, not yours.
29:39I'm sorry.
29:44If I haven't been to see you before, it's because of the farm.
29:49It won't run itself, you know.
29:51Well, I can't just up and come to the city every time you get yourself into trouble.
29:59I'm...
30:00I'm staying with your Aunt Dorian, Uncle George.
30:06It's bad enough having to face them.
30:13Tell me.
30:15What am I meant to do with you, eh?
30:18Just tell me.
30:21This rubbish on the wall.
30:35Got to do something.
30:36Someone's got to clean it off.
30:38Give it to me.
30:40Come on.
30:42How else can I stop from going out of my mind?
30:45You don't know what it's like.
30:46No one to talk to, nothing to do.
30:48You've climbed down a bit since I last saw you, haven't you?
30:51Must be doing you good.
30:53How much longer do I have to stay in here?
30:55It's up to the VJ.
30:57It's a nice day outside.
31:00What's a VJ?
31:02Visiting justice.
31:03He could put you back in here for another week.
31:06What?
31:06If you're lucky, that is.
31:08You could score a fortnight if he calls in a second opinion,
31:10and they both think that what you did is serious enough.
31:13And I do.
31:14You're going to run out of walls, aren't you, Davidson?
31:17I'm not staying in here.
31:18You've got no choice.
31:20Mind you, you could call witnesses in your defence,
31:23but I wouldn't advise it.
31:25Why not?
31:26Because there aren't any witnesses, are there?
31:28I can think of one.
31:30You've already crossed me once, Davidson.
31:32I wouldn't try it again.
31:34Best for you to accept your punishment,
31:36and try and stay out of trouble in the future.
31:39That's my advice.
31:40Oh, and I wouldn't think about appealing to your aunt for help.
31:47She probably won't be here.
31:48Where's she going?
31:50The governor's movements are none of the prisoners' business.
32:04Hey, they told me you want the word with me about my daughter.
32:07That's right, Mr. Warner.
32:09Won't you come in?
32:10I thought it might be a good idea.
32:12Has she got herself a lawyer?
32:14Yes, you've no need to worry about that.
32:16Who's paying for her?
32:17Legal aid.
32:19Oh.
32:20What are her chances?
32:21Well, that's hard to say at the moment,
32:24but I'm sure Mr. Wilson will do the best he can for her.
32:26Who's Wilson?
32:27Stephen Wilson.
32:28That's her lawyer.
32:29Oh, I see.
32:31Won't you sit down?
32:34I, uh, I know it must be difficult for you being here.
32:37Oh, you're damn right.
32:40I'm sorry.
32:41Excuse me.
32:42There's no need to apologize.
32:44I understand how you must be feeling.
32:46Do you?
32:47How?
32:49Have you ever had a daughter in a mess like this?
32:51Of course not.
32:53Then you don't know, do you?
32:56We're concerned for her, that's all.
32:59And I'm not.
32:59Is that the idea?
33:00I didn't say that.
33:01Oh, I know.
33:03You young, educated people.
33:05You think that we're old.
33:09We're not too sophisticated.
33:11Farmers are meant to be stupid.
33:13Because they don't read books half their life to find out what they want to be.
33:18Well, I can catch the drift as fast as the next one.
33:21You don't need a university degree.
33:24And ever since I set foot in this place,
33:26people are telling me what I didn't do,
33:28what I should have done,
33:28and what a bloody awful parent I've been.
33:30Mr. Warner, I'm sure...
33:31Let me finish.
33:33You think I've let my daughter down?
33:36Oh, you all think that here.
33:38You think I've been hard.
33:40You think I've turned my back.
33:42Well, let me tell you something.
33:44My wife and I have worked hard all our lives.
33:46I'm not throwing me a trumpet.
33:48That's just a fact.
33:51We've worked hard to provide a good home
33:53and bring our daughter up the right way,
33:57to give her a good start in life.
33:59Sure, what's right, what's wrong?
34:01At least that's what we thought.
34:05We didn't want her running away to the city like that.
34:07That was her idea.
34:09Her mother told her she'd be sorry.
34:11And then...
34:12Then when she came back,
34:14with that business of the kitty, you know,
34:16we were willing to forgive and forget
34:17and start all over again.
34:20And then what does she do?
34:22She shoots through with that...
34:24that no-hoper, that...
34:26that Doug Parker.
34:28I saw through him in five minutes.
34:29You couldn't tell her, though.
34:31And now...
34:32Now look what's happened.
34:34Honest to God, you get to the stage,
34:37you wonder if you've ever done anything right.
34:41I do understand how you must be feeling, Mr. Warner.
34:44But what happens now?
34:48Well, I...
34:49I'm not going to give up on her,
34:51if that's what you expect me to say.
34:55Not yet, anyway.
34:57God... God knows why.
34:58Lynn is a...
35:02a very naive girl,
35:04and she's easily influenced by stronger personalities
35:08if she thinks that they'll accept her.
35:10I think that might have been the case with Doug Parker.
35:14What I'm trying to say is that
35:16she's not strong enough yet,
35:18particularly after what happened to her recently,
35:20to stand on her own.
35:22That'll take time.
35:24Right now, she needs to know
35:26that someone's going to accept her,
35:27in spite of everything.
35:29Somebody who won't give up on her.
35:32She needs her parents.
35:34Of course she needs her parents.
35:35I know that.
35:36What have I been saying?
35:38But you try and tell her that.
35:42I'm sure you'll be able to manage without me
35:43just this once.
35:44Your niece is appearing before the VJ.
35:46I know.
35:47That doesn't make any difference.
35:50I'm not here to provide special privileges for her.
35:52She's just another prisoner.
35:54I thought I'd made that quite clear.
35:56I think we can handle it.
35:57I don't see why not.
35:58It's just a routine matter.
36:00Bring Lizzie Birdsworth to the reception area,
36:02would you please, Mrs Jackson?
36:04Give my regards to the VJ.
36:06Oh, and ask him whatever happened to Mr Bell.
36:08He may know.
36:09We haven't seen him for ages.
36:10Bye, Mrs Davidson.
36:11Yes?
36:34Yes, it.
36:35Did you see my father, Miss Vernon?
36:38Yes, I did.
36:39And what did he say about me?
36:42Well, he wanted to know what your chances were
36:44and if I'd find your lawyer.
36:46What did he say?
36:48Lynn, what do you want from your parents?
36:51What?
36:52What do you expect them to be?
36:53I just want them to try and understand.
36:56Is that all?
36:57I don't want them to hate me.
36:58They don't hate you, Lynn.
37:00Oh, you were so angry.
37:02I've never seen him like that before.
37:03He blames me for everything.
37:04He's upset.
37:06Because of your mother
37:07and how everything seems to have gone sour.
37:09But he wants to help you.
37:10He told me so.
37:12Only because that's what you expected.
37:14You were wrong before.
37:15He came to see me because he felt he had to,
37:17not because he wanted to.
37:19I could feel it.
37:22Then why did you ask me what he said about you?
37:25I had to be sure.
37:27Lynn, you haven't been listening to what I've said.
37:30I remember what you said this morning
37:32about trying to feel sorry for him instead of myself.
37:35Well, I tried and he just wouldn't listen.
37:37And if that's the way he feels...
37:39Lynn!
37:43At 2.30.
37:44Don't forget.
37:45Be there on time.
37:48What was that all about?
37:49Nothing important.
37:51How did Lynn Warner get on with her visitor?
37:53I didn't know you were interested in Lynn, Vera.
37:55It was her father, wasn't it?
37:56I bet he tore strips off of the silly little fool.
37:58Yes, he did.
37:59Hardly the best thing at the moment.
38:00Why not?
38:00She deserves it.
38:01Oh, come off it, Vera.
38:02You know what I'm talking about.
38:03Afraid she'll do herself in.
38:04She tried once.
38:05Rubbish.
38:06She wasn't trying to kill herself.
38:07She's not the type.
38:08Well, what is the type?
38:09She's just looking for attention.
38:11Trying to create as much fuss as she can.
38:13There are easier ways of gaining attention.
38:14But nothing so effective as a suicide attempt.
38:17You don't honestly believe that.
38:19If you had any sense, you would too.
38:20She could have died.
38:21But she didn't.
38:22She knows what she's doing.
38:24Make you too soft-hearted.
38:25She's got your wrap around her little finger.
38:27Now, that's not true.
38:28But someone's got to keep an eye on her.
38:29You can't ignore what's happened in the past.
38:31Then think about all the trouble you had getting her case reopened.
38:33And what did she do?
38:34Back like a revolving door.
38:36You're wasting your time.
38:39Where are you off to, Anderson?
38:41The garden.
38:42It's crying out for my green fingers.
38:44There's work to be done in the laundry.
38:46Don't worry, Mrs Jackson.
38:48It's all under control.
38:53She's the one you should be watching.
38:55Don't worry.
38:57I am watching.
38:58What are you doing, Monk?
39:12What does it look like?
39:14Hmm.
39:14Tough, eh?
39:15Tough as cast it.
39:16Who asked you?
39:17Listen, if you've got anything smart to say, you can buzz off, Doreen.
39:21I haven't forgotten what you said before.
39:24I was just joking.
39:25No need to get shirty.
39:27What do you want, Doreen?
39:30Why aren't you doing your little garden?
39:32We thought we might give you a hand.
39:34Like last time.
39:36Oh, yeah, but I've been reading up on it since then.
39:39I don't reckon I'll make the same mistakes as I did the last time.
39:41Yeah, I grew a pot plant once.
39:45You can do what you like.
39:46I don't care.
39:47Don't you?
39:48No, I've just about had a belly full.
39:51I'm not doing anything anymore for anyone.
39:53Just for myself.
39:54Is that so?
39:56I just told you, didn't I?
39:59Seems to me you're waking up to a few things.
40:02Yeah, maybe I am.
40:03And from what I hear, you're not too innocent this time, eh?
40:08No.
40:10Well, then you're one of us now, aren't you?
40:18Yes.
40:28Oh!
40:28Hey, it's a buy-up this afternoon.
40:33You got any money?
40:35No.
40:35You?
40:37Well, what are you getting all excited about?
40:39Just remembered, that's all.
40:41Yeah.
40:42Suppose we've got to miss out.
40:44Frankie never went short of a smoke.
40:46That was Frankie.
40:48No reason why we should either.
40:51What do you mean?
40:52I know how she used to work it.
40:55Yeah?
40:56You reckon we could too?
40:57Of course we could.
40:58Yeah?
41:02What are you talking about?
41:04None of your business.
41:06Look, what do you think you're doing?
41:08Just sitting.
41:11Look, Wonk, what do you want?
41:13Nothing.
41:13I can sit here if I want to.
41:15It's not a bloody Tupperware party.
41:17Maybe she'd like to help us, Doreen.
41:19Her?
41:20Don't make me laugh.
41:21What have you got to do?
41:23Nothing that you'd be any good at.
41:25You said I was one of you, remember?
41:27We could do it some extra help.
41:29All right, we'll give you a go.
41:34Seeing's how you're turning over a new leaf.
41:37What have I got to do?
41:38Ah, Mr. Goodwin.
41:46Mrs. Jackson, how are you?
41:48We didn't know who to expect today.
41:50Mr. Bell's still away?
41:51Yes, he's in England visiting his daughter.
41:54I don't know how he finds the time.
41:56My hands are full just keeping up with my work.
41:58Actually, I'm a little surprised to see you still here.
42:02Well, I heard about your husband.
42:03That was a terrible thing.
42:05These women need a firmer hand.
42:07How's Mrs. Davidson?
42:09Oh, Mrs. Davidson isn't here today, Mr. Goodwin.
42:11She has business outside the prison.
42:13Miss Bennett is in charge.
42:14Is she now?
42:15Fine woman, Miss Bennett.
42:17Very efficient.
42:18Well, we mustn't keep her waiting.
42:20Shall we go?
42:20Certainly.
42:21She's in Mrs. Davidson's office.
42:22Thank you, Dwyer.
42:28You may go.
42:31Would you like me to send the first girl in, Miss Bennett?
42:33No hurry, Meg.
42:34Mr. Goodwin and I will have tea first.
42:36I'll call you when we're ready for the first case.
42:38Barbara Davidson.
42:39Whatever you say.
42:40Thank you, Meg.
42:41Oh, let reception know where you are so that I can find you.
42:49Now, how do you like your tea, Mr. Goodwin?
42:51Oh, black with no sugar, thank you.
42:53May I say what a pleasant surprise it is to see you sitting in that chair?
42:56It's only while Mrs. Davidson's away, of course, but very nice of you to say so.
43:01Well, not at all.
43:02I've often felt the authorities weren't making good enough use of your ability.
43:05Unfortunately, too few people feel that way.
43:08Vanilla slice?
43:15That's great, Mum.
43:18How's the placard?
43:19Terrific.
43:23Yeah, well, I'll see you soon.
43:25Bye.
43:27That was Mum.
43:29She and Judith Hand are getting along famously.
43:32Everything's fine.
43:32Oh, that's good.
43:34I think I only rang her to reassure myself that I can do something, all right.
43:37Oh, come on.
43:38What do you mean?
43:39Oh, you should have been a fly on the wall when Lynn Warner's father came to see me.
43:42I mean, talk about a disaster.
43:45And Lynn, too.
43:46I thought I was making myself perfectly clear, making good sense.
43:50Well, some people only hear what they want to hear.
43:52It was my job to get a foothold in there somewhere.
43:57Well, I'll tell you something that'll make your day.
43:59You should see Vera in the governor's office.
44:02She's all set up with an enormous tray of tea and cakes.
44:04And she's entertaining the VJ as though she were holding a garden party in government house.
44:08Oh, it doesn't surprise me.
44:10Erica's only gone for the afternoon.
44:12Vera's carrying on as though she were founding a dynasty.
44:14Yeah, the thousand-year Reich.
44:16Heil Vera.
44:18You know, your Miss Bennet only makes my job more difficult.
44:22I've got to undo all her good work in making those women feel worthless.
44:26And crushing whatever hope they have in bettering themselves.
44:29God help us if she's any more than governor for a day.
44:35Jean Vernon.
44:39The Fuhrer.
44:43Yes, Vera.
44:45Right.
44:46Right, I'll bring her up straight away.
44:48She's ready for Davidson.
44:49Well, between the two of them, I think our little Barbara's in for a tough time.
44:53Hmm.
44:53I'm going to bring her up.
45:09Thanks, real generous of you.
45:10Give them back.
45:11You keep your mouth shut if you want to stay healthy, all right?
45:13Give them back, you bastards.
45:15Hold up.
45:15Let me go.
45:16Let me go.
45:17Girls.
45:18Who's doing all that yelling?
45:20Yelling?
45:21We didn't hear any yelling, did we, girls?
45:23No.
45:23You all right, Lynn?
45:24Yeah, why shouldn't I be?
45:25Everybody else get back to work.
45:27There's been enough loitering for one day.
45:30Oh, because of you we lost them smokes.
45:32Yeah.
45:33You piss weak.
45:35Bloody useless.
45:46Davidson, time for you to see the VJ.
45:49He hasn't got all day, now move along.
45:53Now, this is an informal hearing.
45:56You have the right to call witnesses and cross-examine them if you wish.
45:59The name of the justice is Mr. Goodwin.
46:01That is how you will address him.
46:02Any questions?
46:03Everyone seems to have made up their minds about me.
46:05Big, bad Barbara.
46:06Don't flatter yourself.
46:07Well, I've got news for you.
46:08The staff here aren't so lily-white.
46:10What do you mean?
46:11There's a certain officer who was only too willing to help me get stuff into this place.
46:15Who?
46:16If you don't mind, I think I'll keep it for Mr. Goodwin.
46:19He used to give me roses
46:26I wish he could again
46:31But that was on the outside
46:37And things were different then
46:42On the inside
46:43The sun still shines
46:47And the rain falls down
46:52But the sun and rain are Christmas too
46:56When morning comes around
47:01Last night I dreamed we were together
47:07Sharing all the love we've known
47:12Till I had to face the nightmare
47:17Of waking up alone
47:22On the inside the roses glow
47:26They don't lie on the stony ground
47:32But the roses here are Christmas too
47:37When morning comes around
47:42On the inside the roses glow
47:44On the inside the roses glow
47:44On the inside the roses glow
47:46On the inside the roses glow
47:47On the inside the roses glow
