Who Is Number One?

The Introductory Post is always a difficult one. What should i say, who wants to virtually hear my ramblings? You apparently. You should be ashamed of yourself. So the big question is where to start? I'll tell you where - The Prisoner. This is easily the most insane, disjointed and just plain odd piece of television ive ever seen, but thats not to say its bad in any way. If you havent seen it, which you should, its set in The Village, an idyllic place with its own taxi service, phone system and amusements. It actually looks like a nice seaside town in Wales , but in reality its a prison for ex-secret agents.
The show stars Patrick McGoogan, a man once tipped to play Bond but turned it down. Shame really, he would have been much better than the only other brit for the role: Roger Sodding Moore. He plays the eponymous Prisoner, assigned the number 06 in the first episode, and simultaneously tries to escape the village-prison and provide the influence for this blog. I wont tell you what happens in the series, mainly because i havent got a fucking clue, but just know this...I am not a number.
