The Therapy Zone

     Oops, there's been another cock-up! We take another look at the continuity errors which the Prisoner enjoys, and we continue with The Chimes of Big Ben when as the helicopter lands on the lawn bringing Nadia to the village, a couple of the film crew can be seen at the far right of the shot.
    No.6 chops down a tree with a trunk of about 2 feet in diameter, from this he manages to carve out the hull of his boat of about 6 feet in diameter!
    In A B and C when No.6 kicks out the grill at the base of the air-conditioning vent in the laboratory, his socks change colour!
    Free For All sees No.6 attempting to escape by jet boat at high tide. However an ambulance is despatched across the beach at low tide to collect No.6 after being returned to the beach by the village guardian.
    When No.6 is electioneering, there is a shot over his shoulder showing trees behind the Gothic pavilion by the lawn in full leaf. Yet in the next shot the trees have bare branches!
    In The Schizoid Man No.6 is set to leave the village in a black Alouette helicopter with skids. Once airborne the helicopter changes to the regular Alouette helicopter with floats. But once the helicopter lands its the black Alouette with skids again!
    When the Professor is typing his lecture notes in the General the carriage of the typewriter is so far to the left that the Professor is typing on the roller!
    Dance of the Dead sees No.2's scarf and badge keep changing position.
    During the opening moments of Checkmate there is no chessboard on the lawn, but moments later there is a chessboard ready laid down!
    No.6 walks through the bandstand and emerges out of the base of the Bell Tower!
    Basil Hoskins-No.14 of Hammer Into Anvil makes an appearance in the following episode Its Your Funeral during No.6's Kosho practise.
    Patrick McGoohan appears in the episode Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling more than you might think. As more often than not McGoohan can be seen behind the wheel of his Lotus!
    During the fight scene of Living In Harmony when the Judges boys were teaching the stranger that its not safe to go about without a gun, a young boy, a son of one of the film crew, wearing jeans and a holster complete with hand gun who can be seen watching the fight.
    When No.6 comes to his senses lying on the floor in the saloon during Living In Harmony, he gets up and see the cardboard cut out of the Judge and his blazer is unbuttoned. But in the next scene as No.6 dashes out of the saloon his blazer is buttoned up!
   Again in Arrival when the Brass Band emerges from the pink Gazebo one of Portmeirions maids can be seen standing watching.
    When the lorry carrying the cage and escapees emerges from the tunnel during Fall Out, on the grassy bank there can be clearly see the figures of the film crew.

Be seeing you
