The Prisoner - 50 Happy Returns
One of British Cult TV's most unique titles hits a significant anniversary today...
He may not be a number, but "50" certainly is - as in it's 50 years today since work began on the TV debut of Patrick McGoohan's tour-de-force as Number Six in The Prisoner.
The Prisoner at 50 - News in Pictures
This hugely influencial series made its mark on many people working in the creative arts, not least Big Finish's executive producer Nicholas Briggs, who last year was able to bring an audio telling of the series to life with The Prisoner - Volume 1. A second volume of this highly-praised, evocative series is coming in January. An extract from Big Finish's The Prisoner: Departure and Arrival can be heard for free through a download available here.
From everyone here at Big Finish, we salute this epic anniversary in a show that will never be forgotten.
