Repeat, Subtitled
1/22
Depending on your point of view, Five's latest US import is either a testosterone-charged adventure or a homoerotic men's-prison fantasy. The first episode brought in a healthy 1.7 million viewers, so doubtless sensing it has a "sleeper" hit on its hands, Five has decided to repeat the first three episodes as a catch-up for new viewers. Prime beefcake Wentworth Miller is an unlikely structural engineer who contrives to get himself imprisoned in the very institution he helped to build, as a means of freeing his brother, who's on death row. Once inside, our hunky hero locks swords with the mad prison governor - a great, gimlet-eyed turn from Stacy Keach - and the kind of sadistic guards that you expect in any US prison drama.
