Binged, loved, wanting more…
Even if you have not seen, or had a lifelong fascination with, The Prisoner, it is in your best interest to listen to this brief companion cast. John and Elliot dig deep into the singular weirdness that is British TV sci-fi of the 60s as they attempt to unravel what was undoubtedly a labor of intense passion from the shows principal creative force and star. Coupled with the quick wit and esoteric insights of the hosts, this is a must listen!!!
No, seriously, you must listen, Number 6.
