Bad Girls (1999) | comment |
There are bad girls, and then there are the girls of Larkhall women's prison. This highly acclaimed, original and controversial drama explores the never-ending drama that occurs between the prisoners and the men and women who are paid to lock them up. Never shying from the darker side of prison life, Bad Girls celebrates the warmth, compassion and defiant sense of humour that can sometimes triumph even behind bars...Bad Girls was a British Prison drama that ran from 1999 to 2006. Set in the fictional prison HMP Larkhall, it focused not only on the lives of the female prisoners, but also on the prison staff. The storyline concentrated on G-Wing, as opposed to the entire prison, but D-Wing has been mentioned on several occasions and a few episodes showed scenes from a men's prison.The series was critically acclaimed and controversial at times, but ITV axed the series in 2006.For those who have never heard of the show, it is similar in concept to Oz from the states, with both shows sharing a no-holds-bared approach to homosexuality and violence, although it would be unfair to say that Bad Girls is just a British version as it maintains its own style and originality, but parallels can certainly be drawn. | |

Anyone Can Die: Major characters have been known to die, whether by suicide, accident or outright murder. And not just the cons. The guards tend to die just as easily. | |

Bad Girls (1999) / int_1dfbbf31 | comment |
Heterosexual Life-Partners: Two prominent pairs: The Julies, a pair of Hookers With Hearts Of Gold who were arrested together and finish each other's sentences. One of them even cuts her hair in support when the other gets breast cancer. And then we have Bev and Phil, aka "The Costa Cons", who are the prison's resident moonshiners/booze smugglers. | |

Alpha Bitch: Natalie Buxton, many people have fit this trope until her introduction. Unlike Shell Dockley, she has no backstory, no family that she loves and no true friends. She is basically nothing more than an evil, cold hearted sociopath. | |

Shoot the Shaggy Dog | |
Bad Girls (1999) / int_272abb98 | comment |
Shoot the Shaggy Dog: Rachel Hicks is possibly the only character in all eight series to have not one ounce of happiness during her time at Larkhall, even Zandra Plackett and Snowball Merriman had moments of happiness at times. Rachel is bullied by Shell and Denny, manipulated by Fenner and to top it all off her mother gives away her child, the only thing that was keeping poor Rachel sane, her final appearance in episode 4 was a tearjerker. | |

Bad Girls (1999) / int_2764d432 | comment |
Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Natalie Buxton. She is introduced as a meek, timid, pleasant woman who is in jail merely for getting behind on payments. It turns out she's a violent, bullying paedophile. Don't let her slim, small frame fool you either. She took down Darlene Cake! Snowball Merriman. Introduced as a friendly, classy, glamorous American woman. Turns out she's a pornstar from Wigan who isn't above a bit of murder and blowing up the prison! | |

Character Development | |
Bad Girls (1999) / int_3b113b7 | comment |
Character Development: Many characters are developed through the series. In series 1, Shell Dockley is introduced as the archetypal bully, while series 2 follows her deconstruction and insight into her character. Denny Blood was a cruel, bullying thug in series 1, but by the time of her last episode, she was shipped to an open prison for her good behaviour. | |

Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil: Or at least Child Sexual Abuse is a special kind of evil. Characters such as Natalie Buxton and Caroline Lewis are depicted as 100% evil and are never shown any sympathy compared to murderous characters like Shell Dockley and Maxi Purvis who are generally shown as evil but occasionally given Pet the Dog and Freudian Excuse moments | |

Really Gets Around: Fenner with the prisoners although he does this by either taking advantage of the vulnerable or swapping sexual favors. | |

Chuck Cunningham Syndrome | |
Bad Girls (1999) / int_c33ba0a8 | comment |
Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: A few characters vanished between series, never being mentioned again. The most notable one being Di Barker, a prominent character since series 2, completely disappeared after series 7, the worst part was that series 7 ended on a cliffhanger for her character and we never got to find out her fate. | |

Broken Bird: try finding a character who isn't one. Many of the characters come from horrific backgrounds of abuse and violence, and carry a lot of emotional scars as a result. | |

High Turnover Rate | |
Bad Girls (1999) / int_ef255df8 | comment |
High Turnover Rate: The G-Wing Governor's job, probably one of the most lethal desk jobs in the history of TV. Helen Stewart resigns over her relationship with Nikki Wade. Karen Betts is forced to resign twice (The second time, Fenner was gunning for the job). Jim Fenner resigns once and is killed the second time he holds the job. Sylvia Hollamby holds the job for about a day and loses it due to a disastrous riot. Di Barker is removed by Grayling and replaced by a former undercover cop. Grayling is demoted to the position and dies over it. It's a wonder anybody wants the job at all. | |
