Tonight On The Video Channel




     It strikes me that the way they talk to No.6 through microphones, and interact with him in No.2's office by watching the action on the wall screen, what we are witnessing is possibly the first "reality" game!
     I have a great fondness for American Western films, so really this epsiode should be high up in my list of favourite episodes, but it isn't.
    It is said that this episode is based on a story by David Tomblin and Ian Rakoff, but there is some contention about that, espeically from the late Frank Maher {Patrick McGoohan's stunt double} who claimed that the idea behind 'Living In Harmony' was his. And this resulted in a great deal of bad feeling between Frank and Ian Rakoff. In fact that bad feeling was still there on Frank's part when he attended two 'Prisoner' Conventions in the mid 1990's.
      Be seeing you
