Pentonville Prison: Bog standard
Pentonville Prison: Bog standard
The conditions in a north London prison have been described as a "disgrace to an affluent society" in a new report.
The Independent Monitoring Board's (IMB) annual report into Pentonville Prison, Islington, said the overcrowded prison was putting a "burden" on staff.
It said the accommodation was akin to a "shared lavatory" and the prison has not been upgraded since 1842.

1842 - looxury.
It's pretty bad though. Hoping I don't end up in there.
