Wentworth Review

This episode of Wentworth was definitely better than the previous one. However, the switheroo was really cheesy. It would have been better if Sonia would have just killed Liz. I am not a big fan of Ruby or the fight club either. The rest of the episode was pretty good though. There is a good chance that Franky is not dead. It’ll be interesting to see if Jake manages to win Vera back.

The episode scores a 7.5 out of 10. Catch up with previous recaps of Wentworth right now!
