WITHIN THESE WALLS offers an authentic portrayal of day-to-day prison life as well as the progress of the penal system, reflecting the shift from a Victorian ethos of punishment to an emphasis upon rehabilitation – a task that the newly appointed governor Fay Boswell (Googie Withers – Shine) takes most seriously.
