Thought For The Day

    The Prisoner encounters an old colleague, Cobb, who is something of an enigma. Cobb doesn't know how long he's been in the Village - days, weeks, months, its difficult to tell. Cobb was in Germany, and according to him he went back to his hotel, he thinks he went to bed, he was here!
   The last we hear of Cobb, is from a hospital Orderly, who informs a doctor, after sounding the alarm, that Cobb jumped out of the window! I Know that the Village is very cosmopolitan, that you never know who you'll meet. But I have come to think that its a pity that it was not Chambers, 'late' of the Foreign Office, whom the Prisoner encountered on the ward of the hospiotal instead of Cobb, that would have made a little more sense continuity wise, for the Prisoner to meet someone the television viewer had heard of. You will recall the name Chambers from the de-briefing of the Prisoner by No.2. How the Prisoner had a meeting arranged with Chambers, whose mind he was hoping to change before the 'big boys' found out!  BCNU.
