- Maxine Klibingaitis, Prisoner (UK/US: Prisoner: Cell Block H, TV, Australia, 1983-1985. “If prison is hell for a man, imagine what it’s like for a woman...” Janet auditioned for Bobbie Mitchell and won Reb Kean, after agreeing to cut her long hair to a short James Dean cut. Inspired by the UK 70s’ jailbirds’ soap, Within These Walls, the huge down-under success was booked in 1979 for 16 episodes - finally folding after 692. Producer Reg Watson then created Neighbours… still running after 7,000 episodes! (Only Canada dared to exploit the title: Caged Women).
