I think Judy was one of those characters who lifted a scene just by being there, even when she didn't have a lot to do. She left a big hole when she left, and the show was never quite the same again.
But I did find it funny how she claimed to be Sharon's sister. And how no-one noticed that Sharon spoke in unmistakable Aussie brogue, whereas Judy had a prominent American twang. 😂
*I was glad to see the back of her. The show was filled with annoyingly pointless characters, of which she was certainly part of. She got on her 'bike'*
Judy was a wonderful character played by a Wonderful Actress,she was the conscience of the show and was its heart,she was became a much loved character and the show was never thr same when she left.
True. She looked half the size, prettier and much younger at the beginning. She was a psycho though, a real tough bunny boiler. They completely changed her character quite quickly.
Such a great character and those early years proved what an excellent actress Betty Bobbitt was. The character had such a full backstory and every Judy story linked to the next one. RIP Betty.
I liked Judy. The storyline with her and Jock Stewart was one of the best. As time when on though she wasn't really given much to do. That halfway house bored me terribly. And when she got put back inside after Bea left there didn't seem to be much point left to her character.
I agree the storyline with Jock Stewart was the best, I thought he had a nerve asking Judy for help when he fell down the stairs, after all the things he did to her.
I hated what the new Wentworth did to her character, as they are absolutely nothing alike in personality or motive. They should have just created a new character instead of retconning such a major staple of the original show.
“Ta, mate”-I’m right behind you on that one. I wish Wentworth would of used Judy’s character from the original PCBH! It would made a very intriguing story and pay tribute to such a loving/motherly yet complex character!! I did NOT like how they built their Judy Bryant- they built her to make you hate her from the start-right up to her death at the end. Rest In Peace- Betty Ann Bobbitt
Agreed. The halfway house was the change in character and Bryant’s final years were awful. Betty Bobbitt just didn’t know how to play her any more without the overacting and hysterical lines
She was ok, but why did she have to pick Bea of all people to wack to get in the pound she could have just wacked Vera lol Vera wouldn't have dumped her head in water

I agree
She was the central character to a number of plotlines related to a big hole when she was on the show.

Absolutely 💯 I loved judy

That's when I stopped watching
Betty Bobbitt looks much slimmer in 1980. She really piles a lot of weight on by 1984
Never noticed that.
She looked the same size over the years to me.

@@debraharrison-hl9czit's fairly obvious. Her weight ballooned.
Betty Bobbitt apparentky auditioned for the role of Bea.
One of my favorites❤️

RIP Betty.Great character arc.
Finally thank you

@@JohnLee-pt5jz True, but he was desperate. Besides, people like that will mostly try to serve their own best interests whatever the situation.
The block of flats where she pushed Jock down the stairs and broke his back is still standing in Dandenong Rd Oakleigh.
That screw at the start was another character at Judy's half way house
I hated it when Jude left she was an awesome character I think bettys charisma came out in this character so much
Jock was so sinister. When he told Judre she was very very naughty it made me laugh though. 😁

I absolutely love Wentworth but this was definitely a complaint of mine as well. They made Judy so unlikable.
at 3.08 you here her natural voice come through.
I was lucky to Betty twice. First time was at the supermarket and the second time was at her book signing. She was a lovely lady
Why cant you show the whole Prisoner series on UTUBE? Id certainly be there every episode. Reruns are great to watch .
@rhondahaywood8137 I believe they are on you tube.
The jock was the male equivalent of the freak
Judy was 2nd or 3rd behind bea
RIP BETTY BOBBIT
Judy ring leader
Loved Judy in the early years up until she was sent back to Wentworth for helping Hazel die. Her character became a weak wuss in her final year.

Judy was top dog here
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Bea and Judy jock Stewart
🤩
Judy it was an accident Bea Leaky pipe lol
I really hated her as a character
Aww Piss off
She was fine from 1980-82. The writers completely changed her and she became nothing but a hysterical, shrieking bore from 1982-84
