Jim Fenner

Jim Fenner was portrayed by Jack Ellis. In 1999, Ellis accepted the role of Jim without needing to look at the scripts.

Jim Fenner is a prison officer who bends and breaks rules, in the early series he was portrayed as only slightly corrupt as he still cared for his family but by series seven, he was much more darker, he no longer cared about contact with his family and by then he had already killed a few people. He is killed in Series seven by one of the Julies.
