Additional InformationThough it ran for a mere 17 episodes, the sci-fi spy drama THE PRISONER is one of television's biggest cult hits. The brainchild of star Patrick McGoohan, the series followed the adventures of No. 6 (McGoohan), a former secret agent who is being held captive in a highly secured village, the location of which remains a mystery throughout the series. This groundbreaking and innovative show reached an unfortunate end as TV bosses got cold feet following low ratings and increasingly strange story lines. But McGoohan himself took control and steered the show to an ending that continues to cause great debate among THE PRISONER's faithful fans. This release includes the entire series of the show, digitally restored.

  • A cult series from the 1960s

    This became a cult TV series. It starred Patrick McGoohan, who had previously been in ‘Danger Man.’ It was made in Portmeirion, north Wales, which was an effective backdrop for the story of espionage and imprisonment. McGoohan also produced the series. It was an original idea and foreshadowed future spy drama stories.

  • An excellent TV series for discerning folk

    A series with a difference. Well thought-out and very thought-provoking. It will not suit everyone. This is one for discerning folk

  • Enigmatic barely covers it.

    This order began with a conversation about Roy Harper (McGoohan's Blues) and then McGoohan's similarly renegade assault on national TV's sensibilities. I haven't yet started on the book that comes in the set but I'd strongly recommend the 'Making Of...' documentary that comes in the DVD Extras. The series itself remains as utterly baffling as ever.

  • Great Entertainment Investment ...

    For those of us who remember the Sixties and this iconic enigmatic TV Series this is still great entertainment and as baffling as when first screened. Well worth buying for the Shelf. You'll be left yearning for a Lotus 7 and Mini-Moke guaranteed!
