I can't be the only one who loved this Australian soap opera shown in the U.S. in the early 1980s (also popular in England ten years later).

Just about the only remaining favorite of mine that hasn't been mentioned as a possible DVD release.

Has anybody heard anything about this?

There are some releases in Australia, but at least on HMV.com.au, they are marked as unavailable for shipment outside Australia.

I seem to remember reading something that the original title was simply "Prisoner," but the "in Cell Block H" was added when it was exported, to avoid confusion with McGoohan's "The Prisoner" series. Certainly the DVD releases in Australia are just called "Prisoner."

I remember watching this growing up in Michigan. In the states, it was called, "Prisoner: Cell Block H', but we also picked up some Canadian stations across the border where it was called, "Caged Women". I'd buy it in a second.
