Despite declaring her innocence Helen Stephens is found guilty of murdering Eric Bridges,her boss at Entirely Tiles,and sentenced to a twelve year prison sentence. Sharing a cell with adoring arsonist Christine she is bullied by hard case Top Dog but finds ammunition when she recognizes her as her incontinent supply teacher,Miss Grainger. (imdb)
Tony is warned off Helen's case but Henry warns him back onto it again. Henry also finds mail addressed to Mashta Fembwick,with Helen believes will lead to the real killer but his sleuthing in Bridges' office is interrupted by the man's widow. The prison's annual quiz offers a seductive prize - five years off the winners' sentences. (imdb)
With Christine on a week's exchange to a German prison Helen is charged with minding temporary cell-mate Gertrude Varna,a notorious cannibal and subject of seven books. (imdb)
Justin asks Laura not to tell Helen that he has returned from Europe for the time being whilst Helen,angry with Tony's incompetence, reads law books to prepare her own appeal. She is however distracted when Top Dog's posse,sacked by their boss,ask her to be their new leader though instead she reconciles them. (imdb)
Broadmarsh are competing against the visiting male convicts of Woolley Grange in the prison choirs contest and Helen seems likely to be the featured soloist - until Virna puts in a stunning performance,which is hardly surprising as she is a professional with an agent. Still Margaret will go to any lengths to win - and does. (imdb)
Helen is moved to D wing where she is befriended by elegant fraudster Jo,who tells her Eric Bridges is still alive as she forged a fake passport for him. Laura believes Justin should give Helen her alibi so that he can finish with her and carry on his affair with Laura instead. (imdb)
