David and Michael have been held in Jika Jika, the high security section of the infamous Pentridge Prison, home to prisoners like Chopper Reid and Ned Kelly.

It was designed as a prison within a prison to hold Victoria's toughest and longest serving prisoners.

Jika Jika had six separate units, all with nothing but concrete, electric doors and remote locking.

The furnishings were sparse and prisoners would exercise in small escape-proof yards.

Eventually Jika Jika would be closed down after a number of inmates would die in a fire that had been deliberately lit.

However, David and Michael were eventually taken out of Jika Jika.

But a supposed planned escape would see them taken straight back again.

So the authorities got wind that this was supposedly happening and then... Well, they should know because it was their... It was their idea.

And that's all we've got time for.

But coming up in our next episode, while David is in prison, the police waste no time in enjoying what he's left behind.

And once released finally from Australian prison, he decides to leave the country.

On his way to England, he'd make a stop off.

a stop-off that was going to cost him his life.

The Wanted poster has been around since the 1700s.

In the United States, slave owners would circulate descriptions of runaway slaves in an effort to force their return.

However, the idea of itemising the country's most hardened criminals originated back in 1949, when a newspaper article profiled several quote-unquote tough guys who were clear in the sights of the FBI.

The writer of this article had quizzed the director of the FBI, J. Edgar Hoover, over a game of cards.

After seeing just how popular the story became, Mr Hoover would approve the idea of releasing a top ten list as a way of soliciting tips and other help from the general public.

The first name on that list was released in March of 1950, over 70 years before a young English guy named Christopher Eames would find himself on that very list.

My name's Jack Lawrence.
