maybe not as good as the other three series's but still addictive and entertaining viewing and a must for any dvd collection.my suggestion is always to buy the first box set of any series first regardless of the reviews as otherwise you will not be properly introduced to the characters before you are thrown into the story. watch it now!!

Unfortunly Shell Dockley does not return in this series,and is sorely missed, but we get our Denny back-much to Hollamby's disgust! The latest couple is rich, sassy embezzler Cassie Tyler and the woman who covered her back in court- Roisin Connor, a mother whose turmoil over her children leads to some serious issues that are dealt with in that all-too familiar Larkhall style! We say farewell to Maxi Purvis of the Peckham boot gang, and her shy sister Tina, finally comes into her own, warm bubbly and the latest addition to some truely heart warming characters who have entertained us with their dim wits and mad ideas. A new altogether more evil chaacter appears- Snowball Merriman, whose plan to break out "explodes" through the prison walls...............

Ok, so Nikki and Helen aren't on our screens any more, but the new couple - Roisin and Cassie are brilliant. The storyline of Roisin's turmoil of being in Larkhall is gripping. From her relationship to Cassie, her drug abuse and her time spent the "muppet" wing, actress Siobhan McCarthy's acting is second to none.
As a die-hard Bad Girls fan, I am biased but I'd say BUY this series as it is G-wing at it's best!

BG 4. What can I say! Not bad although of course thanks to the Appeal Judges there's no Nikki or Helen, although Helen gets mentioned a few times

After the fantastic spread series 3 laid out for viewers, series 4 had a lot to live up to. Unfortunatley, it doesn't quite match series 3's '5 star quality'. The boredom factor is signifficant throughout and the general impression is that the writers have run out of ideas...

BUT!!! It's not THAT bad. It deserves 4 stars because it is still 'addictive' to a certain extent.
The introduction of the characters Roisin and Cassie are a bit touch and go - but Roisin is quite comical as she adds a bit of variety to G Wing as she is Irish. Additionally, Yvonne Atkins is the star of the show yet again with some more classic quotes and the 'expolsive' ending really grabs you by the neck as it leaves the obvious question in your mind 'who will survive the bomb?...'
