"No touching!" Also, this sentence sounds very awkward in English.

No it isn't. I'm reporting it right now, it shouldn't be there in the English version.

No, it's fine. "In prison" means generally, but "in the prison" refers to a specific facility. Whether it's a great translation I don't know, but it's not necessarily awkward.

A lot of Danish words sound like slightly misheard English words: V becomes B, I becomes Ø, T becomes G.
