Hey there, Prisoner Pals!

This week on The Prisoner Podcast, we take a side step and delve into Danger Man, the spy series that made ol’ Paddy McG a star, and provided the never ending question of “is Number 6 actually John Drake?” – Well we talk about that, as well as a host of other things in our coverage of Danger Man!

Enjoy!
