A kinda wishy-washy no from me. I use my pen name as an homage to the Prisoner. Come on 60s television fans, you get that one.

So have you seen any Mini Mokes around the Village(s)?
Be seeing you.

Is the Prisoner out on DVD? Like watching the older shows like Gunsmoke, Have Gun Will Travel, the Rifleman, etc. on DVD.

I do not catch the reference to Number 6 in your handle but am not familiar with that show.

Tal -- It is one of the greats. Rates up there with Dr. Who (the original version). If you have Netflix, they have a 10-disc set of it.

Tal:

Number 6 was the main character. He was some kind of English spy type who was kidnapped and ended up in this weird European seaside village that was in effect his jail. All the occupants had numbers instead of names and were part of the plot to control him.

Thanks. Odd sounding show. Will have to check it out at some time. :bigthumbsup:

Thanks for this too Redwitch. I have Blockbuster.com. Like their choice of getting on a plan which allows me to return the envelops at a local Blockbuster for additional rentals.

I did find The Prisoner DVDs though in the Lake County Library system. Requested a few of them for free except that non-Lake County residents (at least from Sumter County) have to pay $40 per year for a household library card.
