There was something of Patrick McGoohan's The Prisoner about Butlins' camp. Plenty of happy smiling faces, amongst pretty buildings and an architectural layout that had the unreality of a film set. Pristine, litter-free green areas that couldn't exist in the real world. A germ-free, utopian working class village, complete with cinemas, restaurants, arcades, family friendly entertainment zones, and of course, a Ladbrokes.
Easy to get out of, but you had to have a key-card to show to the security people, to get back through the gates. A prison in reverse.
