There weren't, and still aren't, many shows with mostly female casts so they stand out in the memory. Prisoner was cult telly for every dyke (and many none dyke women) I knew back then.

In Prisoner, Bea is Top Dog and young upstarts like Reb don't last so long. Lizzy Birdsworth was always a favourite character with her grizzled old face. It's really weird as an original Prisoner fan to watch other actors playing the characters we knew and loved.
That sounds like fun! Are you from Australia? I wonder if the Prisoner is available any where.
