Ferguson cuts Lucy’s


tongue out (s5, Ep 6)


“I think this is one of the most


horrific scenes I’ve seen on


television, let alone Australian


television. It’s so graphic. It’s


the double scene of Lucy


(Sally-Anne Upton) being in the


[dentist’s] chair and Ferguson


coming in and doing what


she does, then she stumbles


into the exercise yard and


you see all that blood. She


tumbles into Vera (Kate


Atkinson) and Vera’s white


shirt is covered in blood.


Those images are seared


into your memory. It’s also


a great character moment for


Ferguson, because it means


she’s going to be Top Dog.”


Will buries


Ferguson alive (s5, Ep 12)


“What an incredible scene.


The simple fact that Will is


a very good person, but he


completely crosses the line...


He’s burying her alive and


[the camera’s] cutting from


him putting the soil on the


coffin to the incredible shot


of her in the wooden box with


the cigarette lighter, and she


sees the drawing of Bea. It’s


a really great moment – the


ultimate death.”


Allie takes on


Ferguson (s5, Ep 7)


“The reason I love this


scene is it’s a big turning


point for Allie. She’s seeking


revenge for Ferguson killing


Bea, the love of her life. We


also get another glimpse


of how psycho Ferguson


is when we see her lift Allie


up by her throat. Everyone


tries to get her and she


just violently pushes them


away, then at the end she’s


like, ‘Anyone else?!’ You


just think, ‘No-one can


ever touch Ferguson.’”
