R.I.P. Patrick McGoohan, The Prisoner’s TV Visionary | The Underwire from Wired.com.
Patrick McGoohan is passed. I remember watching the Prisoner as a child. Tee local PBS station was showing Dr. Who late nights and I was recording it to watch later, but then they cancelled Dr. Who. I was upset but what was this strange show that has replaced it. Some guy driving a tiny car through London? Then he gets gassed? Then some weird alpine village? WTF?!
I AM NOT A NUMBER! I AM A FREE MAN!
Who is number one?
You are number six.
Rest in peace, Patrick McGoohan. Your mark on the 20th century simply cannot be ignored. Your influence on the 21st century has yet to be fully measured, but when it is, one thing is sure: You will be more missed than the day you left us all.
