The Prisoner

so is number 6 number 1 then? i avent seen this i am getting a dvd for my fifteenth birthday.

Was The Truman Show (film) a version of The Prisoner?

No, but Christopher Nolan, Batman-the Dark Knight, is making a movie version of the series

They told you every week.

"Who is Number One?"
"YOU....are number Six"

Change the emphasis.

"You ARE, Number Six!"

does anybody know where i can watch all prisoner eppsodes online

I love this series :D

Gotta be Paul Frees...

is the narrator paul frees?

well if he done that rover the ball would have him

He tried shooting a Rover "ballon" in episode 2, bullets had no effect on it.

He could have caused havoc in that village, wreck things, start fires etc. Get a weapon from a goon. I would never conform to that village idiot.

i thought this series was brilliant, and think you're quite right about it being thought-provoking. one thing i could never figure out though was who was on the other end of #2's phone giving instructions??? his wife maybe, the "real" #1 boss haha

Most people didn't quite understand this mini-series, but this was television turned on its head. It was meant to be thought-provoking and question who really is in control of our lives. Who is number one? We are...or we're supposed to be! BTW, Patrick McGoohan was also King Edward the Longshanks in "Braveheart", a grossly underrated performance by him at that! Just a little useless information! :P

Very true! If you want to be technical, "The Prisoner" was television's first true mini-series. It ended when the story ended, which most people didn't understand it, but I think it wasn't meant to be understood; simply to be thought provoking. Judging from the comments made, mission accomplished!

I didn´t knew that the song The Prisoner form Iron Maiden is based on this Movie :)
