For the first three seasons, Wentworth was filmed on purpose-built sets in the suburbs of Clayton, Victoria. Starting with the fourth season, production moved to Newport, Victoria. The show has received a mostly positive reception from critics, and the first episode became the most watched Australian drama series premiere in Foxtel history and became one of Foxtel's longest running local dramas. The series was picked up by several countries, including New Zealand and the UK, where it is titled Wentworth Prison.

Wentworth was commissioned for an eighth and final season consisting of 20 episodes and airing in two parts; the first part from July to September 2020, and the second part from 24 August 2021, with its final episode on 26 October.[1]

Production

edit

Conception

edit

In March 2012, it was announced that a contemporary re-imagining of Prisoner, an Australian soap opera of the late 20th century, had been commissioned by Foxtel.[15] Brian Walsh, the executive director of television at Foxtel, said that Wentworth would not be a remake of Prisoner, which ran for 692 episodes on Network Ten from 1979 to 1986.[15] He said:

"Wentworth will be a dynamic and very confronting drama series, developed and stylised specifically for subscription television audiences. We have told producers to push all boundaries and honestly depict life on the inside as it is in 2012."[15]

Lara Radulovich and David Hannam developed Wentworth from Reg Watson's original concept.[15] FremantleMedia and director of drama Jo Porter is producer.[15] The first episode, and several subsequent episodes, were written by Pete McTighe. The idea for an "Underbelly-style remake of Prisoner" was first mooted by television critic Michael Idato, who went on to act as series consultant. Kerry Tucker acted as consultant on authenticity.[16][17][18]

Producer Jo Porter commented that the series would explore "the politics of women in a world with few men, and how the experience both challenges and changes them, sometimes for the better". Wentworth is set in the modern-day and explores Bea Smith's early days in prison. The storylines include a mix of original inmates and staff from Prisoner, with characters also developed especially for Wentworth.[15]

Foxtel told a reporter from The Sydney Morning Herald that the original characters from Prisoner would have a contemporary interpretation in the new series. It was initially reported that none of the original cast from Prisoner would appear in the first season of Wentworth, however, Anne Charleston, who had a number of small roles in the original series, made a cameo appearance as Liz Birdsworth's mother-in-law. Alex Menglet and Gloria Ajenstat, who played Ray Proctor and Tammy Fisher in the original series, will have guest roles in the new series.[19][20] Foxtel revealed that the producers were looking at how they might incorporate the Prisoner theme tune, "On The Inside", into the new series.[19]

Eight-season run

edit

On 5 June 2013, it was confirmed that Wentworth had been renewed for a second season.[21] A reporter for the Australian Associated Press said production would begin later in the year, and the season would air in 2014.[21] Porter stated: "We have assembled an extraordinary team of writers who can't wait to get started on series two. We have so many more stories to tell".[22] In January 2014, it was announced that a third season of Wentworth had been ordered, before the second had aired.[23] In a similar manner, a 12-episode fourth season was announced before the airing of the third season on 27 February 2015.[24] It began airing from 10 May 2016.[25] Cormack confirmed a fifth season had been commissioned on 19 July.[26] The twelve-part series premiered on 4 April 2017.[27] On 9 May 2017, Showcase announced that the series had been renewed for a sixth season, which premiered on 19 June 2018.[28][29] A seventh season was commissioned in April 2018, before the sixth-season premiere, with filming commencing the following week and a premiere set for 28 May 2019.[30][31] On 5 December 2018, it was confirmed that a 20-episode eighth season had been commissioned, with production beginning in late October 2019, with Part 1, featuring the first 10 episodes, premiering on 28 July 2020 and Part 2 in 2021.[32][1]

In October 2019, it was confirmed that the series would conclude following the second part of the eighth season in 2021, making it the longest-running hour drama series in Foxtel history, with a total of 100 episodes.[33]

Casting

edit
 
Actress Danielle Cormack was cast as Bea Smith.

On 4 October 2012, a reporter for The West Australian revealed that Celia Ireland and Kate Atkinson had joined the cast of Wentworth, while Shareena Clanton would make her acting debut as Doreen Anderson.[34] Danielle Cormack was cast in the role of Beatrice "Queen Bea" Smith and she stated, "I am absolutely rapt to be part of the reboot of such an iconic drama. Prisoner left an indelible mark on fans and I really hope that the re-imagining of this series will be just as popular with viewers now as it was back then."[35] Actors Robbie Magasiva and Aaron Jeffery play corrections officers in the detention centre.[35] David Knox from TV Tonight revealed that Nicole da Silva, Kris McQuade, Catherine McClements and Leeanna Walsman had also joined the cast.[36]

Following the end of the first season, it was revealed that iconic Prisoner character Joan "The Freak" Ferguson, a sadistic, lesbian prison officer, would be introduced in the second season.[37] Porter commented, "Prisoner offered up a very rich well of amazing characters to draw upon and the Wentworth writers are very excited about revisiting the character of prison officer Joan 'The Freak' Ferguson in our second season."[37] On 21 September 2013, it was confirmed that Pamela Rabe had been cast as "The Freak".[38] McQuade, McClements and Walsman did not reprise their respective roles of Jacs Holt, Meg Jackson and Erica Davidson for the second season.[39] Katrina Milosevic, who portrays Susan "Boomer" Jenkins, was upgraded to the main cast.[39]

Actresses Pia Miranda, Libby Tanner and Tammy MacIntosh joined the cast from the third season as inmate Jodie Spiteri, psychologist Bridget Westfall, and vigilante Karen "Kaz" Proctor, respectively.[40] Sigrid Thornton, who played Ros Coulson on Prisoner, joined the cast for season four, not reprising her former role, but playing another Prisoner-based character, Sonia Stevens, a character originally played by Tina Bursill in Prisoner.[41] Bursill herself would be featured in a recurring role in the show's eighth season as Eve Wilder, a role originally played by Lynda Stoner.

In November 2015, Kate Jenkinson and Bernard Curry were announced to be appearing in the show as Allie Novak, an inmate, and Jake Stewart, a correctional officer, respectively.[42]

In April 2018, it was announced that Indigenous Australian actress Leah Purcell had joined the cast as Rita Connors, a role originally played by Glenda Linscott in Prisoner. Also joining the cast were Susie Porter as criminal matriarch Marie Winter, a role originally played by Maggie Millar in Prisoner, and Rarriwuy Hick as young boxer Ruby Mitchell.[29] Shane Connor also joined the cast in a recurring role.[43]

In Season 7, Morgana O'Reilly, Rick Donald, and David de Lautour were introduced. In June 2020, it was announced that Marta Dusseldorp would be joining the cast of season 8 as Sheila Bausch, a lead figure in a cult who is charged with nine counts of murder.[44]

In October 2019, it was announced that the eighth season would introduce three new cast members; Kate Box, Zoe Terakes, and Jane Hall have been cast as Lou Kelly, Reb Keane, and Ann Reynolds, respectively.[45]

Filming

edit

Foxtel confirmed that Wentworth would not be shot at the original ATV-10 studios in Nunawading, Victoria where Prisoner was filmed.[19] Wentworth was instead filmed on a purpose-built set in the suburb of Clayton. The shoot employed 300 cast and crew.[36] The ten-part season began filming for four months from 10 October 2012.[36][46] Wentworth began airing on Foxtel's SoHo channel from 1 May 2013.[47] Filming for the second season began on 23 September 2013 and wrapped on 13 February 2014.[38][48] The second season began airing on 20 May 2014.[49] Production for the third season resumed in March and filming was completed in late July.[23][50] In the same month, it was announced that the property in which Wentworth was filmed had been sold, and the set would be knocked down.[51] A new alternative was being sought and a TV Week reporter commented that it was unclear if the loss of the set would be written into future storylines.[51] The third season began airing on 7 April 2015.[52] Production on the fourth season began in the second half of 2015.[24] The fifth season was filmed in Melbourne from August 2016.[27] On 9 May 2017, Showcase announced that the series had been renewed for a sixth season, which began filming a week later.[28]

On March 18, 2020, TV Tonight confirmed production of the second part[53] of the eighth and final season was suspended due to the coronavirus outbreak. The 10-episode first part of eighth season is still scheduled to air from July 2020.[54]

Filming for the second part[55] of the eighth and final season was completed on 4 September 2020.[56]

Theme song

edit

The original Wentworth theme music was composed by rock musician Richard Pleasance[57] for the show's instrumental opening theme to the first season.[58] In season two, a new variant of the theme was composed with the introduction of lyrics comprising the theme song "You Don't Know Me", performed by Pleasantville, with the vocals supplied by Pleasance's wife Michelle.[59][60] An orchestrated instrumental version, with differs from the opening theme, served as the ending theme throughout the show's run.[61] For the eight season, a new updated variant of the original instrumental theme music, along with a new end theme will be introduced, while the lyrics will be dropped entirely.[62]

Direction

edit

A number of directors worked on the series over the eight seasons, with Kevin Carlin undertaking the direction of 32 episodes. Other directors included Steve Jodrell, Dee McLachlan and Beck Cole.[63]

Release

edit

Broadcast

edit

Wentworth has been sold to more than 90 countries.[64] On 2 April 2013, it was confirmed that TVNZ had signed a deal to broadcast Wentworth in New Zealand.[65] Later that month, it was announced that Wentworth would be broadcast on Channel 5 in the UK.[66] The head of acquisitions for the channel, Kate Keenan, commented "Wentworth will be a great addition to Channel 5's drama output this autumn. This compelling cast of female characters packs an emotional punch and will appeal to the Channel 5 viewers who love our range of crime output from dramas to factual series."[66]

A trailer for the series began airing on the channel and its website in August 2013 and premiered on Channel 5 on 28 August. Channel 5 also re-titled the show, Wentworth Prison.[67] The second season began on Channel 5 on 3 September 2014 and season Three, which commenced broadcast on 22 July 2015, concluded with a two-hour season finale which consisted of episodes 11 and 12 of the season on 30 September 2015. Season four of Wentworth premiered on Channel 5 on 27 June 2016.[68] In July, following declining ratings, the series was moved from its Monday night timeslot on Channel 5 to Tuesdays on sister channel 5Star.[69][70] Season 5 premiered on 5Star on 23 May 2017.[71] Season 6 of Wentworth premiered on 5Star on 23 June 2018, just four days following the Australian premiere; however, the series was moved to Saturday nights at 10:00 pm.[72] The seventh season premiered on 8 June 2019 in the same Saturday night timeslot as the previous season.[73] The eighth season premiered on 5 August 2020 in a Wednesday night 10:00 pm timeslot.[74] The second part of the season began on the same day as Australia, 24 August 2021, on 5STAR in the UK.

Although the series has a strong fan base in many countries, Angela Perez of Australia Network News said, in 2016, that Foxtel was considering cancelling the show [after the then current fourth season] due to audiences viewing new episodes via pirate websites following the Australian premiere. Foxtel stated that the piracy is "a serious problem in terms of recouping money to help pay for future seasons".[69]

ABC 1 started broadcasting Wentworth from season 1 in April 2018, with repeats being aired through ABC Iview.[77]

Reception

edit

The show has received critical acclaim throughout its run. Following a screening of the pilot episode for the media in February 2013, Ben Pobjie from The Age called Wentworth "a triumph".[47] He praised the writing and the cast, saying "So rarely in Australian TV do we see well-written characters collide with dead-on casting and tense, atmospheric direction as they have here."[47] He added that Wentworth is "a powerful, almost cinematic drama" with its own identity, that incorporates "echoes" of the original Prisoner series.[47] Holly Byrnes, writing for the Herald Sun, quipped "this brilliant retelling picks up where the pioneering series left off and then takes the kind of shocking plot detours contemporary TV viewers would expect from award-winning US dramas like Breaking Bad or Sons of Anarchy." Byrnes also praised the cast's performances, particularly Cormack.[117]

Following its North American debut the critics drew comparisons with US prison dramedy Orange Is the New Black, though Liz Raftery of TV Guide said she believed the show was more gritty and did not "sugarcoat" prison life. They branded it "edge-of-your-seat television" and singled out Sue 'Boomer' Jenkins as one of the show's standout characters and reasons to watch.[118] Margaret Lyons from New York magazine called it a "ruthlessly dark drama" similar to Breaking Bad, a comparison which TV Guide's critics also made. Lyons added that Wentworth's careful plotting of storylines gave meaningful payoffs and triumphed into making it a "smart and competent" series.[119]

Gerard O'Donovan from The Daily Telegraph opined that the show has a cast of "fabulously strong, variably humane female characters."[120] They believed it did not try to appeal to "mainstream tastes", adding "the series sticks more closely to its violent, soapy, sexploitation Prisoner: Cell Block H roots than is strictly necessary in 2016." O'Donovan branded it a rare example of fictional work portraying lesbianism as "not only normal, but the norm." He concluded the show depicts a world in which "women hold virtually all the power, albeit to no obviously edifying ends."[120] Matt Baylis from the Daily Express criticised the show for not being original and having a "mandatory number of unnecessary scenes". They preferred the original series Prisoner and accused Wentworth of being everything the original was not.[121]

The first episode of Wentworth attracted 244,000 viewers, making it the most watched Australian drama series premiere in Foxtel history.[122] The UK premiere of the show attracted 1.67 million viewers, a 10.3% share of the audience for the 10pm time slot.[123]
