The latest season of "Wentworth" ended with the tragic death of Bea Smith. She died at the hands of Joan Ferguson and was last seen lying in a pool of her own blood. Many were saddened by her exit from the show, as she has always considered the main character of the show. The question now is, who will the show focus on for its season 5?
The Australian reports that the show has always been about Bea Smith's journey since the beginning of the series. Her journey of being a salon owner to being a prisoner provided a lot of storyline for the series. During her time in prison, she became the de facto leader of a group of women who felt denied of justice due to social prejudice.
Her death at the end of season 4 was even a sacrifice. She wanted to stop Joan Ferguson from getting out of prison. She confronted her with a screwdriver, but when she was disarmed, she thrust herself into the screwdriver, leading to her death and Joan's continued incarceration. Now reports sat that the show might actually focus on Joan Ferguson in the "Wentworth" season 5.
Meanwhile, The Daily Mail reported that one actress in the series has opened up about the trauma she experienced due to the show. Tammy MacIntosh, who plays Karen Proctor, opened up that preparing for the role has caused such havoc on her emotions.
She admits to crying at random times, exclaiming that in delving into her character's persona, she needed to go to a dark place. She became vulnerable and overwhelmed because of it. It seems that her subconscious was affected as she watched YouTube videos of women who were abused by their spouses and partners in order to better prepare for the role.
"Wentworth" season 5 will prove to be a big change for loyal fans of the show. Watch out for how the show's writers will proceed with the storyline of the series.
