Then in Season 1 there is Victoria (played by our favourite little angry minx from the Mentalist, Robin Tunney), who plays Lincoln's ex girlfriend turned solicitor as who is very much like her character on the Mentalist.


Some of the lines he throws out, with that gentlemanly southern accent, both curdle your blood and make you squirm in delight. Then there's the psycho mental patient, whose psychosis enables him to memorise in detail Scofield's elaborate tattoo, which ultimately lands him a ticket out, then there's the best villain on telly in the history of TV villians - Teabag - who is beyond amazing (I think he won some awards for this role, and well earned), able to be charming and even likable whilst at the same time being a complete, violent psycho who will do just about anything without hesitation or conscience. First, a perfect mix of characters, from Lincoln - the strong silent type trying to avoid the electric chair, to his brother Scofield, the more articulate and clean cut of the two, and the brains behind the group of escapees. I am now into part 2 series 2, and there has not been one single episode that has left me even remotely bored, or even drifting.

I have to say when I purchased it I didn't expect such a masterpiece, and I was entirely wrong.
