We like it because:

Wentworth Prison can be likened to classics such as Bad Girls but also stand against some of the toughest HBO drama’s around. It’s not just TV, “This is TV!” Wentworth Prison is the show we have all be waiting for; mixing drama, violence, comedy and real life issues, this show encompasses a number of elements that fans of film and TV cannot ignore. Each episode will provide memorable moments that you willl want to talk about, to share and to experience again and again.

Shocking, exciting, suspenseful; just a few words to describe Wentworth Prison.

This is unmissable entertainment that you must watch from start to finish!
