This is a frame from a film shot by a member of the public who was either staying, or visiting Portmeirion in September 1966, at the time when the Prisoner was being filmed there. The short piece of amateur film footage is all there is of the Village helicopter, a French Allouete, landing on the water of the estuary at Portmeirion. As far as I am aware, this is the only time that the helicopter actually landed upon the water during all the filming of the Prisoner, and it's nice to have this archive film footage. It makes one wonder just how much more there might be out there. People who were there, at Portmeirion, taking pictures, and film of the Prisoner in production at Portmeirion, all those years ago.
