Our Diminutive Friend The Butler

  What happened to the Butler? The last we saw of him, he was entering 1 Buckingham Place, just as his new master was driving off in his Lotus 7 to hand in his letter of resignation at the end of Fall Out.
    Upon the Prisoner's return to his house, after handing in his resignation, he collects two ready packed suitcases, his passport and airline ticket. But of the Butler there is no sign. I suspect that having packed those two suitcases for his master, the Butler departed No.1 Buckingham Place in order to make his own way to the Village. You see it is not only the Prisoner who is caught up in the vicious circle that is the Prisoner. Forced to live and relive, again and again, the subsequent consequences of the Prisoner's resignation! Just a theory.  I'll be seeing you.
