After Kerryn has hung herself in the conjugal suite in despair, Lyle drives his car off the road (probably deliberately) and is killed (487)-(496).Imprisoned in (1) at the same time as Karen Travers for burying a child alive while working as a nursemaid.

She appears for a brief stretch in Wentworth (371-376), and it turns out she knew Lizzie 40 years ago. Dreadfully dull character, with hopelessly dodgy Anglo-Irish-American accent: while actually being a drug runner she manages to convince the women that she is a dotty old lady with a fund of exciting stories. The women's support cannot prevent Ted Douglas arranging for her extradition to the USA to serve her full sentence Maggot

He refers to the earlier trial of Sharon Gilmour in (94) as if he is supposed to be the same person, but there he was credited as Judge.At Geoff Butler's trail for assaulting Meg (106).Sentences Noeline Bourke to six months for stealing from her colleagues at the office where she is working as a cleaner (122).In voice-over pronouncing sentence on Chrissie's boyfriend Mick O'Brien (195).At Lizzie's trial for arson (249).At Judy's trial for robbing the taxi passenger (270).When Maxine is in court: he bails her until she can find a solicitor (307), and also deals with Judy who is in court for aiding Margo, jailing Meg for contempt when she refuses to shop Judy (308).At Denise Tyler's hearing (367) Decides that Bea and Lizzie should stand trial for murdering Nola McKenzie (371) At Roxanne’s trial for extortion (378).At Trevor Priest's trial (457).

Attempting to extricate Shane from the drain (471) Joan Ferguson's dog, given to her as a puppy in (366) by her father. It seems to grow remarkably quickly and by (374) when Des Coulson complains about him, he seems like an adult Rottweiler. When Joan crosses Lionel Fellowes and is forced to take acid by two of his henchman, she has an LSD trip, and comes round to find that she has killed her dog with a pair of scissors (413). For the real thing see Ferguson, Major. Joan's previous dog, the one poisoned by Phillip Langdon, was called "Hanno".The only speaking guest at the party thrown by Yvonne (35). He is the one involved in some serious lip-suction with her when Bea breaks up the party, and presumably the person Yvonne has in mind when she says in the following episode that she hoped to "get laid".Reporter contacted by Paul Reid to give the women an introduction to journalism for their proposed newspaper, but Bea passes him a story about the Department's delay in freeing Lizzie (87).

The credit seems slightly odd as there never seem to be any female (perimeter) guards - so why make a point of the gender here? In later episodes the description Gate Guard, sometimes with a name, is more usual. It's possible that the credit may really belong to episode (13), and may refer to the gate guard who talks to Lizzie when she returns to Wentworth and asks to be let back in.Gate guard (41) (50) and (61). Later and earlier credits under Gate Guard sometimes with the name Trevor added.Gate guard (41) seen talking to a van driver about Karen. The other gate guard in this episode refers to him as "Ted".Does Lizzie's hair for her day release visit to meet Mick Lawson (398).

Referred to as Jack in dialogue.Terri's father (563-564) Interviewed by Judy for the post of assistant at the halfway house (305). She is well-meaning but pretty clueless and the job eventually goes to Tony Berman.Terri's mother (563-564). She can barely bring themselves to speak to Joan when they find out that she is Terri's lover. Detective from the Consorting Squad who comes to interview Vera about Anne Yates' letter implicating George Lucas (31).The first meets Chrissie in a bar when she is looking for a job and passes her on to the second who pays to sleep with her, and is still there next morning when Meg turns up at Chrissie's flat (196).He comes to the halfway house in (321), sits down and orders a coffee.

Judy tears up his note and tells him to get lost.One of the many people harassing Dennis Cruickshank after he is suspected of murdering teenage girls (529) Delivering Ettie's statue of "Freedom" (534). This is not just a heavy item but also heavily symbolic, as Judy is released for the final time in this episode. It is moved to the rec room in the next episode then out into the garden where it can be glimpsed occasionally in outdoor scenes, for instance in (680) when Merle introduces her mouse to it.Noeline Bourke's boss, who makes the best of a police visit to tell her of her daughter Leanne's death to lag on her for stealing from the offices where she works as a cleaner (122).

Apparently, Ann Phelan was given this role at short notice when the actress originally cast fell ill.Visits Wentworth to see Lizzie after replying to Captain Barton's newspaper advert when he is trying to trace Lizzie's family (118). Although she initially refuses to accept Lizzie's offer of money so that she and her daughter Josie can stay longer at their lodgings near Wentworth, she takes up the offer to live in Doreen's house. Kevin becomes suspicious when Josie refers to her uncle being called Morgan, and Marcia has already been revealed to the audience as fraudulent when she calls the visit to Lizzie a "business trip". Her motive for the deception is to provide Josie with medical treatment.
