Teabreak Teaser
I have used this before, as a "Caught On Camera," but readers didn't get it, or at least they never said that they did. So.......what's wrong with this picture?
Well done that man! No-one spotted it the first time I posted this, a few months ago now. Obviously it's a production shot. And are those the trousers from the Prisoner's charcoal suit? Perhaps McGoohan had been busy filming studio scenes in his suit, then had to get changed for this scene in 'The Schizoid Man,' but only bothered to change into his turtle neck sweater and piped blazer for a run through of the scene before going for a take!
I take it you are well, I know you are up to your eyes it in, and I hope things are going well for you.
Unless the Youtube video hasn't been cropped in height this particular shot does not appear in the edited episode. No. 6s shoes aren't visible. - BCNU!
In the actual episode you can plainly see that No.6 is wearing his deck shoes and beige trousers. As I said to ZM72, the above is obviously a production shot, a rehearsal of the scene between Pat and Jane.
Judging from the YT video (all I've available here) the camera angle doesn't show the shoes and the knees are barely visible. Can you send me a shot, please? - BCNU!
No.6 isn't wearing the Village deck shoes!
