    Rosanne Hull browns portrayal of merle is absolutely outstanding. She completely portrays someone with special needs to perfection without making a mockery of it, she is 100 percent believable. I have never seen such an accurate and heartbreaking performance and I really hope she received the recognition and accolades that she so thoroughly deserved.

    Joan at 3": “Why can’t people be more pleasant, like me?” May be the single funniest line of the whole run. OTFL!

    Rosanne Hull Brown should have won EVERY major acting award possible in Australia. She only ever did Prisoner.... she is simply AMAZING. She now teaches music, which is what she did before playing Merle.

    Merle in the hospital... is as good as any acting in all 692 episodes.
    In fact, she's one of only a few who nailed their character from start to finish - very impressive.

    This period is one of the best in the whole series. Although not as good as it was in the early days, it still has it's better episodes. The music has changed slightly now, too. We sense a change, like something really big will happen soon which eventually does in the end. There is a lot going on during these episodes (Inside and outside the prison) to keep us interested. Great build up's - climaxes and well scripted plots. Even though it had run it's course, i understand how people did not want it to end. We are all just glad it run so long and that we can still enjoy it today :)

      Because it makes their job easier. Why do you think most Residential Homes have all their residents with mobility issues sitting around in Continence pads? Because it's too much hassle to take them to the toilet. I'm not joking, and I'm not talking about Nursing Homes where patients are bed bound either. I do continence assessments for the NHS and the amount we get from Residential Homes simply because they can't be arsed to help their residents to the toilet is a disgrace.

      I think the purpose of killing Rita off - apart from the way it is used as a plot device in the final episode - is that she is such a unifying figure. Her death means the future of Wentworth amongst the women is once again up in the air, so it gives a sense of Wentworth carrying on after the last episode, albeit with potential troubles that don't involve Joan Ferguson!

    Roseanne Hull-Brown should've gone on to do film work, given her excellent acting range. She'd have been absolutely fantastic as Annie Wilkes in "Misery" (Kathy Bates plays her in the film). I understand she's a successful music teacher today, but she certainly knew this character's nuances and she plays Merle perfectly.

    I like Merle 😊😊. She's such a sweetheart. But l hate seeing people pick on the poor girl & using her for their own ends. Ok she's not the brightest character in the show and she needs more: One 2 One Support, People to understand and she needs more help.People can be so cruel - people like spider need a slap. Merle has to be one of my favourite characters in this show. Merle should not be in Wentworth or any other prison for that matter. She shouldn't be but in a mental health hospital or a place with padded cell. Surely a place like a community home. where she still gets the right help & support, and she still gets some independence & place where she can make friends. We have them in the uk. They still get a lot of help & support, they still get to keep their independence & still make friends. But she shouldn't be in prison and she shouldn't be in a padded cell. The actress that played merle she played her so well. she's an amazing actress.

      Sadly, many years before this and still back in the late 70s early 80s, this is how people with Learning difficulties, Mental health problems and brain disorders were treated. Locked up, drugged up and forgotten about 😪

    22:03 "Okay if I wash my hands? We had a little... accident." That remark is obscure and a little disturbing. Could this the one and only reference to "dirty protest" in PCBH?
    39:15 If Kath is trying to disguise herself as Bea Smith then she's done a good job! Seriously, how did she ever imagine she was going to get Merl out of the institution without arousing suspicion; even with Merl's full cooperation?
