No.2 once said to No.6 "No game is worth playing unless you can win, that's not very English I know." But the question is, is the Prisoner English?
I do know how to ask questions, but I don't have the answers so at least I'm not in a prison of my own making! And I like it, "He's a walking conundrum, yes I like that!"

I like your comment. Thank's for the link. I recall in the film 'I Robot' Spooner has to ask the hologram of Dr. Lanning the right question in order to get an answer! If the correct question wasn't asked the hologram switched itself off!
