Season two of the award winning and internationally acclaimed Wentworth continues to draw on the legendary characters and themes of the iconic Prisoner production. A dynamic edge has been added with the introduction of bold new characters, gripping story-lines, surprising revelations and heartbreaking secrets.

In the three months Bea has been languishing in the slot for murder, Franky has risen to 'top dog' unopposed. But the sudden arrival of new governor Joan Ferguson is about to change everything. Ferguson's mandate is to clean up Wentworth and restore order at any cost.

Joining the impressive cast of characters is Simmo, Jac Holt's second in command; Maxine Conway, a transgender inmate trying to survive unsuccessfully below the radar; Sky Pierson, an out-of-control drug addict who will stop at nothing for her next fix; and Jess Warner, Wentworth's youngest resident who's angelic demeanour belies her manipulative nature.

This stunning 12-part second series will leave viewers questioning which side of the razor-wire is safer, as a complex hierarchy of characters fight for survival, revenge and power. Who will reign supreme by the final shocking instalment?
