Portrait of The Prisoner- Number 6

Described as an angry young man. Well you'd be angry if you had been abducted from the world you know, to the unfamiliar environment of the Village. Forced to wear attire more suited to a boating regatta like Henley. Your identity taken away, and given a number, as well as a card of identity, an employment card, a health and welfare card, and a credit card. In fact 'they' look after you, for as long as you live. And no pressure is placed upon you, save for the fact that 'they' want to know all about you, including why you resigned! Tell them, and they leave you alone to live out the rest of your life in the peaceful atmosphere of.....the Village!
