29:59At least I tried. I am not a housewife and I never will be a housewife. It's spaghetti.
30:07Next time I'll make a sandwich.
30:09Is it edible?
30:11It'll be delicious if I can just get it out to the table.
30:13Well, I'm glad none of your boyfriends are coming for dinner.
30:15Boyfriends?
30:16Well, Greg's face would be a study in how to be polite and Steve Wilson would be out the front door like a shot.
30:21Steve Wilson?
30:22Well, I have it on good authority. You're stringing them both along.
30:25So much for your good authority. Steve Wilson is a pig.
30:30Intelligent, maybe even smart, occasionally human, but nevertheless a pig.
30:34He'd love to hear you say that. Now you'd better put that pot in to soak.
30:37Yeah, yeah.
30:53I'll eat it up.
30:55Well, it coagulates completely.
30:59I didn't expect your home so late. I wasn't going to throw a meal at you as soon as you got back.
31:04Susan Rice is back.
31:06What?
31:06Yeah, she was only out five hours or so after the hearing.
31:10After she paid a bail?
31:11She's back.
31:12For stealing?
31:13Mm-hmm.
31:14Oh, I think we've got a right one on our hands there.
31:18I don't know. As far as I'm concerned, she seems normal enough.
31:20I disagree.
31:21Well, what's the matter with her?
31:23Well, don't you think she's a bit odd?
31:24Well, not particularly. I mean, she's always been calm and quiet with me.
31:27Well, that's just the point. One minute she's as sane as anybody else and then the next.
31:31I think there's more to that one than meets the eye.
31:35I wonder what the rich people are eating tonight.
31:43How are you two going? Ready for some food yet?
31:55Uh, not just yet. Vera?
31:57Oh, no thanks. Later.
32:00Tell me about Wentworth.
32:02There's nothing much to tell, really.
32:05Tough job. Lonely too, I imagine.
32:07Well, yes, I suppose it is.
32:09Well, I do feel different. I'm isolated.
32:12It's not just so much the prisoners. I mean, they're bad enough.
32:15It's just that I don't get on with the rest of the staff.
32:18Why is that?
32:19Well, I guess they think I'm too hard on the women.
32:21But I don't see how else you can run a prison.
32:24They're hardened criminals.
32:25Violent types.
32:26Well, they wouldn't be in there if they weren't.
32:28And then you get people like Erica Davidson.
32:30She's the governor.
32:31And Meg Jackson, who think that being a prison officer
32:33is like being in the Salvation Army or something.
32:36I know the type.
32:37Small old liberals. Social workers and such.
32:39Oh, right.
32:40The trouble is, people think they're terrific.
32:42The people who do the real work don't get any thanks at all.
32:44Yeah, well, if I had my...
32:45Well, that's just it. I don't get my way.
32:47I might be the deputy governor, but I'm quite powerless.
32:50It'll come.
32:52Perhaps.
32:53I'll tell you one thing.
32:54You're the first prison officer I've ever met to wear a Chanel No. 5.
32:58Are you two going to sit here all night?
33:03What's a dance?
33:05Yes, thank you.
33:20Come on, Lizzie. We haven't gone all day.
33:28Good morning, Rice.
33:30Good morning.
33:31Well, you're never going to make it at that pace.
33:34Oh, Mrs Jackson,
33:35I wonder if I could have something to do while I'm in here.
33:38We'll save you sitting around, if that's possible.
33:39Of course.
33:40We always need extra hands in the laundry.
33:42I'll speak to the governor.
33:43Thanks.
33:44When you can drag yourself away, Doreen,
34:06I could do with a helping hand.
34:08Oh, in a minute.
34:09I never get to read the paper.
34:10Oh, the poor deprived little thing.
34:12Well, everyone else does.
34:14Well, they're quicker off the mark.
34:17Rice is coming in here for a while.
34:19I'll leave it to you, Bea,
34:20to put her where she'll be most useful.
34:21Sure, thanks.
34:23Well, well.
34:24Here, you couldn't get away from us.
34:26Now, come on, join the workers.
34:28I'll put you on one of the machines.
34:29I've got a pile of mending,
34:31and Jenny's as slow as a wet week.
34:32I don't know that I can work on those.
34:34Yeah, well, that's never stopped any of us, love.
34:36Don't worry, I'll set it up for you.
34:38If you come to a tough bit, just give us a yell.
34:40It doesn't have to be perfect.
34:41Oh, jeez, I don't think I can stand it.
34:43Hey, Lizzie, get a load of this.
34:50Jason Richards is going to star in a new TV series.
34:53Oh, yeah, and who's Jason Richards when he's at home?
34:56Well, he's fantastic.
34:57He's just great.
34:59Oh, that tells me a lot.
35:00Now it doesn't.
35:01He's vile.
35:02He's beautiful.
35:03Don't you dare say that.
35:04Oh, well, yeah, what's it to you?
35:06Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
35:09That's okay, we're away, too, Doreen.
35:11Get a move on.
35:12I don't want all this trouble over an idiot pop star.
35:15Susan Rice, Miss Vernon would like to see you.
35:18Oh, come on, Vera, she's just got here.
35:20It's nothing to do with me, Bea, just my instructions.
35:22Come along, Susan.
35:23Well, well, I think old Vinegar Tits must have had a turn in the cot or something.
35:34Yeah, what do you make of that, Lizzie?
35:36Nothing to do with me, Bea, just my instructions.
35:39Come along, Susan.
35:42I don't believe it.
35:44No one in heaven.
35:45Yeah, well, I've always heard that there's someone for everyone in this world,
35:48and I'm just now beginning to believe it.
35:50What I want to know is why you paid your own bail
35:54and then went deliberately out to break it.
35:59Why didn't you go home, Susan?
36:00What's stopping you?
36:03Is it because your husband started divorce proceedings against you?
36:06That's not true.
36:08It is true, and you know it.
36:12It's his work that keeps him away from home.
36:14I don't believe you.
36:15He hasn't been living with you for the past three months, has he?
36:20How are the kids?
36:22I didn't see them.
36:24I miss them, you know.
36:26Then why did you do what you did yesterday?
36:31I'm going to have to contact your husband, Susan, whether you like it or not.
36:36I just thought I'd let you know.
36:38Hi.
36:48Have you seen Susan Rice today?
36:50Yes.
36:50How was she?
36:51Good.
36:51You seen her?
36:52Yeah.
36:53Much better, isn't she?
36:54She even asked me if there was any work to do, so I put her in the laundry.
36:57Well, she was very strange with me today.
36:59You're imagining things.
37:00No, I'm not.
37:02Firstly, she doesn't want to have anything to do with her husband.
37:04And then when I tell her that I'm going to contact him, whether she likes it or not,
37:08she looks overjoyed by the prospect.
37:11Which connects with that conversation that she had with him on the telephone.
37:16You know, I think that girl needs psychiatric attention.
37:18What on earth for?
37:19I don't know.
37:19If I knew it, it'd be easy.
37:21All I do know is that kleptomania is a psychological state.
37:25Somebody's got to get into that girl's head.
37:28Look, she's not a guinea pig.
37:30And what's that supposed to mean?
37:32You've been reading too much of that scientific jargon, it sounds like.
37:35You're as bad as the rest of them.
37:37Morning, Sergeant Major.
37:43Wentworth Prison.
37:45Oh, yes.
37:47May I ask who's calling, please?
37:52It's for you, personal.
37:54Anne Yates.
37:56Thanks, Mick.
37:58Hello.
38:00Anne.
38:00Oh, I'm fine.
38:02Look, thank you very much for last night.
38:04Not reasonably late.
38:06Actually, he's taking me out to lunch today.
38:09I'm delighted.
38:12Yes, I realise that.
38:16Will you ring and tell me all about it?
38:18Have a nice time.
38:20Bye.
38:25What did she want, Vera?
38:30Who?
38:31Anne Yates.
38:32That was the Anne Yates who used to work here.
38:35It's none of your business.
38:37When a prison officer is dismissed for malpractice, it is the rule that other prison officers do not continue to associate with her.
38:43Now, you know that rule, Vera.
38:45Yates was not dismissed.
38:46She resigned.
38:47That was just a matter of good timing on her part, and you know it.
38:51Think what you like.
38:52Look, I don't pry into your personal affairs, and I'd appreciate it if you didn't pry into mine.
39:26Tasmania.
39:27Well, why not?
39:28You must get holidays sometimes.
39:29Why don't you just pack your bags and go?
39:31Well, I've thought about it, but, well, you need real money to do that.
39:35I can't see myself hitchhiking.
39:37I'd like to do it with style.
39:40Besides, I don't think that it would be too much fun travelling alone.
39:45Well, it's not difficult to meet people.
39:47It is for me.
39:48You know, when my mother died, I felt more relieved than anything.
39:56She was a difficult woman to live with.
39:58But after a while, even that wore off.
40:01I almost miss her sometimes.
40:04It's funny, isn't it?
40:06You're really something, you know.
40:09I mean it.
40:10Oh, I talk too much.
40:11I like listening.
40:14Would you like to come over and have dinner one night?
40:17I'd love it.
40:18Tonight?
40:19Um, tonight.
40:20I can't make it.
40:21Oh.
40:22Not to worry.
40:24Well, how about tomorrow?
40:25Well, that's it.
40:26Tomorrow?
40:27Well, that'd be just fine.
40:30Good.
40:30What a beautiful lighter.
40:38Take it.
40:39It's yours.
40:39What?
40:40I can't.
40:41Just a present.
40:41Oh, no, I couldn't.
40:42Why not?
40:44Well, it's...
40:45It's too beautiful.
40:47If you don't take it, I won't come to dinner.
40:52Well, thank you.
41:00You're late, Vera.
41:07Flat tyre?
41:13Okay, Jenny, it's your deal.
41:15Make it snappy.
41:15I'm on a winning streak, are you?
41:17Oh, that'd be the first time.
41:18Not in your life.
41:19I used to be crash-hot at cards.
41:21Used to beat all the others on a Friday night
41:23down at the local with monotonous regularity.
41:25Yeah, that'd be right.
41:28Get lost, Lizzie.
41:29You're making signals.
41:30I wouldn't do that.
41:31My fat aunt, you wouldn't.
41:33Whose turn is it?
41:34Yours.
41:37Bad one.
41:38Oh, what would you know?
41:39Well, what'd I tell you?
41:40Oh, shut up.
41:42Will you buzz off, Lizzie, and go and help someone else?
41:45I said shut up, you lot.
41:48I'll turn this down, Doreen.
41:50The man of the moment, the king of the kooks,
41:52Mr. Jason Richards.
41:57Oh!
41:59Where's she gone?
42:01Oh, she's buggered the tally.
42:04Moron!
42:05It was the first chance I had to see him, too.
42:09You know, there is something right around the twist about that girl.
42:12What's the matter?
42:22What's the matter?
42:23Susan, what's happening?
42:24I'm going to get him!
42:25I'm going to bloody get him!
42:26Now, stop it.
42:27No one is going to watch him!
42:29No one!
42:29What are you talking about?
42:31He's ruined my life.
42:32He's wrecked everything.
42:35Jason Richards.
42:37Well, that's why I don't have a husband.
42:38My kids don't even have a father.
42:40Does he work for him?
42:41It just doesn't work for me.
42:43He lives for me.
42:44He breathes for me.
42:46Bloody every other thing for him.
42:48My God.
42:57How about that?
42:59He's gone off with that long-haired rattlesnake as his boyfriend.
43:01I don't believe it.
43:03Oh, no, Bea.
43:04I wouldn't think so.
43:05Them two have got kiddies, Susan, in here.
43:07Oh, so what?
43:08It's happened before.
43:09Strikes the strangest one sometimes.
43:11Yeah, what do you think about that?
43:12Looks like your Jason Richards prefers blokes to young ladies.
43:15Yeah, well, I don't believe it.
43:17I know someone who knows Jason Richards,
43:19and they probably even met him and talked to him in person.
43:22It's just not true.
43:24Oh, grow up, Doreen.
43:31Blast!
43:42Hello.
43:42Oh, I hope I haven't come in at an awkward time.
43:46Bea, how nice to see you.
43:47Is anything wrong?
43:49No, I thought I'd pop in and tell you how lunch went today.
43:51Lunch?
43:51With George.
43:52Of course.
43:53Come in and sit down.
44:00Well, how'd it go?
44:02It was marvellous, really.
44:04Well, I've talked too much, rambled on,
44:06practically told him the story of my life.
44:08I've never met anyone like him.
44:11He's done so much,
44:12and yet really seemed interested in what's happened to me.
44:15Oh, I was so afraid he'd be bored to death.
44:17Sounds like he was quite taken with you, Vera.
44:19Look.
44:20Look what he gave me.
44:21He insisted on it.
44:22Wouldn't take no for an answer.
44:24Oh, Anne, I felt so embarrassed.
44:25Why?
44:26I think that's rather nice.
44:27Well, so do I,
44:28but he can't afford to give me expensive presents like this.
44:32Well, it's not right.
44:33Don't you worry about that, Vera.
44:34George can afford all the gold lighters he wants.
44:37Oh, he must earn a fortune.
44:39What does he do?
44:41You do know.
44:43I mean, why is it such a secret?
44:46Vera, when George started out,
44:48he didn't have a penny.
44:49But he's never let that,
44:50or the fact that he's had almost no formal education,
44:53stand in his way.
44:54Now he's practically a millionaire.
44:56He's tough, and he's clever,
44:58and there are not too many people left in this town
45:01who are prepared to cross him.
45:03And I think that's quite something, don't you?
45:06Yes.
45:08And what is it exactly that he does?
45:12I work for him, Vera.
45:14I was working for him when I was at the prison.
45:16He used to give me roses
45:20I wish he could again
45:25But that was on the outside
45:31And things were different then
45:36On the inside
45:37The sun still shines
45:41And the rain falls down
45:46But the sun and rain are prisoners too
45:50When morning comes around
45:55Last night I dreamed we worked together
46:01Sharing all the love for the moon
46:07Till I had to face the nightmare
46:12Of waking up alone
46:16On the inside
46:18On the inside
46:18The roses grow
46:20They don't land the stony ground
46:26But the roses here are prisoners too
46:31When morning comes around
46:46He used to give me roses
47:12I wish he could again
47:18And we return to cell block H
47:21Next Sunday night at 1.25 on Central
47:24And things were different then
47:28On the inside
47:30The sun still shines
47:33And the rain falls down
47:38But the sun and rain are prisoners too
47:43When morning comes around
47:47Last night I dreamed we worked together
47:53Sharing all the love for the moon
47:59Till I had to face the nightmare
48:03For waking up alone
48:09Time for sun, sand and a bit of Gaelic passion
48:18Next on Central
48:19With Bernardo in a frenzy of jealousy
48:21The temperature's high on the Riviera
48:24After the headlines
48:25The temperature's high on the inside
