The Prisoner

The Zeitgeist Tapes

As we all find ourselves willing Prisoners reliant on a strong proactive state to keep us healthy, we thought it might be fun to explore an alternative point of view.
In this iconic 60s drama, Patrick McGoohan finds himself trapped in the perplexing and frustrating world of The Village. Constantly experimented on and tortured by Number 2, he is number 6. Though he would argue he's a free man.
This drama explores issues of surveillance, freedom, conformity and difference. While a touch baffling at times, this incredibly watchable and interesting drama combines the best of 60s psychedelia with old fashioned action.
With Emma Burnell, Professor Steve Fielding and Tim Worthington.
