There is bewilderment in that scene, as the Prisoner newly arrived tries to find out where he is, attempts to make a telephone call.<br /> Yes, your comment was very nicely put, and I find myself in complete agreement with you, save that I've thought it was all too easy for Number 6 to revert the conditioning he underwent. I suppose it would depend on how powerful that electric shock was. It was mains electric, so it would be pretty powerful that electric jolt. Just as well really, otherwise Number 6 might have had to electrify himself twice! That was very handy for Number 6, that faulty table lamp!<br /><br />Kind regards<br />David<br />BCNUDavid Stimpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15196038086564981619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036104775563265647.post-16087216051245675552012-08-23T10:50:07.888+01:002012-08-23T10:50:07.888+01:00The shop scene right at the start of the series wi...The shop scene right at the start of the series with the salesman speaking in tongues cleverly prepares for the oddness of the place, the bewilderment and the underlying surrealism, next comes the map scene! Clearly one of my favourites. No. 6 chopping trees with a stone axe, on the other hand, very much stretches our sense of acceptance and credibility even allowing him days to finish his work. Remember the broken lamp he uses to "heal" himself from the cure he was subjected to in "Schizoid" - oh no, go away! - BCNU!nr6dehttp://www.nummer6-theprisoner.denoreply@blogger.com
