The original 17 episode TV series of βThe Prisonerβ created intrigue and controversy in equal measure when it first aired in the UK in 1967.
In a taut psychological spy thriller the main character, dehumanised as βNumber 6β, has committed no crime, save for having resigned from some unspecified branch of the British Secret Service. His prison is a heavily guarded, ornate coastal village.
A Big Finish Production - based on the classic ITV series - released in August 2015.
