Scene 3
Name: Rachel Hicks
Age: 19
Family: A baby named Maddie who is in care
Location: Larkhall prison, South London. Rachels Cell
In this scene Rachel is in her cell. She has a mattresss, pile of bedding and a bag of possessions. It is extremely empty and bare. There is no natural light in the cell as there is 3 steel walls and a solid door that locks from the outside.
Although prisoners are given the opportunity to wash regularly it is a crowded prison and people don't always use the wash facilities available so it smells. The smell is a mix of the smell of hospital food and a boys changing room at a gym.
All you can hear from the cell is doors banging. As they go from cell to cell the door banging gets closer until its your turn. Its a very loud noise as the large steel door is shut hard. You cant hear any noises from other cells. Its silent.
The taste you get is very similar to the smell. Once tried the food provided you will be left with this lingering taste in your mouth that isn't pleasant.
The walls are bare. They are very hard and strong. You can feel the dust on them. Also you can feel marks where previous inmates have attempted to damage the cell. The mattress will also feel hard. The bedding provided is made from poly/cotton blend meaning it has a tough feel, not soft.
The first character involved with Rachel in this scene is Jim. He is a prison officer and principal officer of G-Wing. He acts nice to Rachel at this point. As Rachel is new to the prison and he is the first person to give her any attention she becomes attached to him. She opens up and tells him things about her personal life. He acts very nice to her in this scene. 'Rachel sobs. Jim finds her a hanky'.
A major event that happened in Rachels past is she gave birth to her child Maddie. The Father of Maddie died of an overdose just before she gave birth. Rachel's Mother took the baby in after Rachel was taken into prison but sadly couldn't look after her enough so put her into care.
