“I am not a number! I am a free man!”
Description
Producer Andrew joins Joe to discuss the classic British tv show The Prisoner. Patrick McGoohan played Number Six, spy who quits his job and is then kidnapped and taken to The Village. Only referred to as Number Six, his captors question why he quit as he attempts to escape. Filled with surrealist, Orwellian, postmodern, avant-garde trippiness, The Prisoner is a fascinating time capsule of Cold War commentary in a sci-fi/spy package.
