The BBC did a documentary recently inside the jail which I got to see, and it was nothing like it is described these days. What era did fellows write the book about?

They showed the documentary in Belgium too. And yes indeed it wasn`t like in the book from Fellows. But you could also see when the guards got annoyed and told the crew to stop filming. Some are`s of the prison were also an NO-GO for the crew. The prisonersdirector was also verry keen to show the beautiffull places from his prison. I think like every prison over the world with a rep they will never show you those things just to keep the organisations of their back.
