I'd seen most of it. There's just a chunk in the middle I keep missing.

I must admit I was quite surprised by that revelation too.

As we all know The Prisoner is one of the key items in British Telefantasy, and British Television as a whole. And yet it has come to my attention tonight that one of our number has never seen it! I will give the culprit an opportunity to admit this hole in their viewing experience.... PHIL!!! -Ralph

Phil had seen the Prisoner, and the majority of the Prisoner including the crucial episodes. He just hadn't seen all of it

I'm sure somewhere we have a thread for 'things you'd expect me to have seen but I haven't'.

Did anyone notice who jumped out the window at the start of tonight's Prisoner, Hammer into Anvil?

Phil had seen the Prisoner, and the majority of the Prisoner including the crucial episodes. He just hadn't seen all of it As of last night's showing of Hammer into Anvil I have seen it all. Watching back I'm reasonably certain I had seen Checkmate at some point previously and the locations & sets for Living in Harmony were VERY familiar even if I couldn't remember the story. Tonight's episode, The Girl Who Was Death, was the first episode I ever saw. This is the first time I'd seen it since then - late 80s, early 90s on a C4 TV Heaven night and having checked it was 2nd May 1992 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TV_Heaven - and it was another episode that's completely unrepresentative of the series. Once Upon Of Time tomorrow - I've warned Liz that it's madder than most episodes - and Fallout on Friday - just off the scale!

Spent 6 hours in The Village today. Mind-blowing experience. It really is like being in the show. It hasn't changed.
