It tries to be The Office set in a womans prison. There are some decent moments but most of it falls flat and at times into the ridiculously unfunny.
Too many of Catherine Tates characters look too similar for it to work effectively.
The male guard she plays is the exception that stands out and is a decent character the rest are just fluff and a bit pointless.
A lot of the humour is dated with a few forced exceptions.
The majority of the prisoners seem to be there as childish background entertainment and for overall mockery.
The Ex Eastenders star there to produce an in prison version of West Side story is again more fodder for silly and cheap humour.
Its about 20 years too late and even then it would be average at best.
You know things are getting desperate when you need to use a lot of toilet humour.
If your bored and want a few cheap chuckles give it a go but I was expecting better from Catherine Tate if Im honest.
5/10 at a push.
