On the outside
Fans of nostalgic television might want to take a look at All Saints on Tuesday March 25 when two former actresses from Prisoner appear side by side.
Maggie Kirkpatrick, who played Joan ‘The Freak’ Ferguson, has a guest role as a meddling mother-in-law.
Kirkpatrick (pictured third l-r, back row) became infamous as the show’s nastiest warden (complete with her leather gloves).
This puts her in several key scenes with actress Judith McGrath, who plays “Von” Ryan. In Prisoner McGrath played warden Colleen Powell (pictured fourth l-r, back row).
All Saints screens Tuesday nights on Seven, just without any laundry duty or buy-up.

In “All Saints” a couple of years ago, another Prisoner name Elspeth Ballantyne played “Von’s” sister.
