Following his resignation, a high ranking Government official is abducted from his home and taken to a picturesque location known as "The Village". However, the idealic surroundings hide a sinister world where "guests" are sinply labelled as numbers and escape is impossible. His captors want secret information and will use any means to obtain it - give in and you'll be left to live out your days as a brainwashed member of the community - rebel and your stay will be far from pleasant.

With escape the objective, THE PRISONER must also strive to maintain his identity throughout the clever methods of interrogation employed by his obductors, whilst pursuing his ibsession to discover "Who is Number 1?"

Can they break him? How far will they go? Or can THE PRISONER escape and outsmart them all?

First screened in 1967, Patrick McGoohan's television masterpiece has refused to be resigned to the past with new generations discovering its unique plots, colourful production values and striking images.

The series' symbols and story of one man's struggle against the authority under constant surveillance remain as potent themes today as when first aired. It's no wonder THE PRISONER is lauded as the most influential Cult-TV program of all time.

With additional special features including original trailers, documentaries, rarely seen footage and photgraphs plus a never before aired "Alternate" episode, this is the definitive 35th Anniversary edition of a Cult-TV classic.
