Who was the most OTT character ever to appear in Prisoner?

Exactly what it says. Who do you think was the most demented loon ever to grace Wentworth's floors?

yes, does anyone remember Noeline Burke's brother, i think Col or something like that? was he just a really stupid criminal or was it bad acting?

i know alot of people say prisoner has bad acting, which i disagree with otherwise i wouldn't be here, but i remember this character was just cringeworthy.

Clara Goddard sticks out in my mind - not so much a loon but surely anyone who calls Noeline Bourke 'darling' is demented to some extent.

Ray Meagher played Ernest Craven as a borderline psychopath.

How could I forget Rowena Wallace's fantastic turn as Anne Griffin which appears in Volume 6? If there was anyone fit for a straitjacket it's most surely her!

The most over the top character has to be Willie Beecham. Ridiculous crying into the hankerchief all the time. The fighting with Mae. Yeah whatever. Can't stand her.

What time-line was she in? I can't seem to remember her at the mo.

She came in just before Myra died as one of the Barnhurst 5...with Mae, Nora Flynn, Chook and Daphne.

Dear god, Caroline Simpson and Vivian Williams back in the episodes around the 90s or 100s, man, they pissed me off. The mother was a terrible actress and those two were totally OTT.

Oh yes...the incredibly horrible Vivian Williams. What a shame Caroline didn't shoot her.
