About this product

Product Information

January 16th, 1967...A secret agent resigns from MI6, then wakes up to find himself imprisoned in 'The Village' - a bizarre community with a cheery veneer, but an underbelly of mystery and threat. All occupants of The Village have numbers instead of names, with our secret agent forced to accept the mantel of Number Six. The authorities running this Village are intent on discovering why Number Six resigned - but it's a secret he steadfastly refuses to divulge. As the drama unfolds, the authorities, in the guise of the sinister Number Two, try ever more ingenious and aggressive means to bend Number Six to their will. All the while, Number Six is intent on two aims: to escape and to find out 'Who is Number One?'. EPISODE ONE: DEPARTURE AND ARRIVAL. A failed meeting in Belgium catalyses Agent ZM-73 to resign from his top secret post, but when he wakes the following morning everything has changed - even his name. Trapped in a bizarre coastal village, and with his every move monitored by the mysterious Number Two, the man now known as Number Six struggles to make sense of it all. EPISODE TWO: THE SCHIZOID MAN. Six finds himself fascinated by a strange bond which has suddenly developed between himself and Number Nine. But the next morning, Six wakes to find himself changed. A moustache, different hair, and...a new name. Number Twelve. EPISODE THREE: YOUR BEAUTIFUL VILLAGE. Something is very wrong, as Six experiences the most disturbing sense deprivation. Almost complete darkness, filled with haunting sounds, fragments of conversations, and a desperate call from Nine start to test his reason. EPISODE FOUR: THE CHIMES OF BIG BEN. A new prisoner arrives in the village. The woman is strong-minded, independent, and refuses to accept her new number - Eight. She is not a number, she is Nadia. And Six is convinced that she is his ticket out of the village. For the first time on audio, a dynamic, full-cast revisiting of the one of the most regarded and discussed cult TV shows of all time - The Prisoner! Writer Nicholas Briggs has a long history of script work for Big Finish, including popular Doctor Who stories and many others. His love of The Prisoner goes back to seeing its first broadcast on ITV. Guest star Celia Imrie is one of Britain's most well-known and regarded actors on TV and film, appearing in everything from Highlander to The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, Doctor Who to Absolutely Fabulous. This set contains four one-hour episodes, a Behind-the-Scenes audio documentary, and a lavish colour booklet.

    I watched the original TV series. This audio captured the elements well and was a most enjoyable listen. Great pictures and action in words.
