Default The Prisoner ITV1 Saturdays 9PM



Filmed in South West Africa
which is clever as they get the whole area to Film.


The Original Series back in '69
is Legendary
And now even on BluRay Box Sets.



"I am not a Number
I will not be Filled"


Another great new Thriller on ITV1 17th April 9:30PM




Jim Caviezel plays Number Six, a secret agent who finds
himself in a mysterious, isolated village without
any memory of how he got there.

I watched it for the first time last night. I'm not sure what to think. There were some serious narrative loose ends (in a bad way). For instance, why did '6' suspect his colleague in particular of spying on him when it could have been anybody? I wasn't sure about Jim Caveziel as a leading man either. The setting is great though and I enjoyed some of the darkly comic elements.

Hi arista, did you watch the original? I like the modern version but it's left a lot out, and then doesn't really conclude with an ending.

Yes I have watched the Original.
And also have it in a BoxSet 1080P BluRay with 5.1 sound.



Sure this new version was short
and not the same,
but still I liked it.

Yeah it was good, just very different. I liked how they focussed a lot on '6'. Didn't know many others watched it
