VERY INTERESTING NUMBER 70: PRISON BREAK

 Hello ladies and gents this is the Viking telling you that today we are talking about

Things you probably never knew about Prison Break


17 things you probably never knew about Prison Break

How much would Michael Scofield's tattoo really set you back?

But how well do you know the original series? Even uber-fans of the Fox River Eight and their associates might find a surprise or two in the following fascinating facts.

1. Prison Break is banned in at least 13 prisons that we know of – presumably because it's considered educational programming.

2. Michael Scofield's hastily-applied Fox River tattoo would actually take four years to complete – and would set you back around $20,000 (£13,000).

3. In actual fact, Wentworth Miller had to sit in the make-up trailer for just(!) 4.5 hours to fake the body-art.

4. He nailed the part of noble Scofield, but Miller was actually cast on Prison Break just one week before filming began.

5. Miller first came to the attention of executive producer Brett Ratner after auditioning to play the Man of Steel in his aborted Superman movie, Flyby.

And as always have a chilled day from the Viking
