1960s cult TV classic The Prisoner is heading to Horror Channel in March to excite and puzzle a new generation of viewers (as well as the ones who remember it!). Created by and starring Patrick McGoohan, the show followed the actor’s previous series, Danger Man, and took a decidedly surreal turn. McGoohan plays an unnamed secret agent who decides to retire only to be kidnapped and placed within an inescapable community, ‘The Village’, and given a number – No. 6.

As much of an enigma today as it was in the ‘60s, the show still boasts a cult following and the location of the Village, Portmeirion in Wales, is a regular place of pilgrimage for fans (as well as being a stunning place anyway).

The first episode is on Thursday, March 10th. Be seeing you!
