At the very beginning of ‘Arrival,’ after the
Prisoner has resigned his job, he then wakes up, to find himself not in The Village,
but somewhere in a desert! He doesn’t know where he is or how he came to
be there, or why. In the original series at least ‘the Prisoner,’ after
resigning his job, wakes up in what he thinks is his own home, yet he is in The
Village. But the Prisoner waking up in a desert seems somehow even more
disorientating, than to wake up and look out of a window to see a view of an
Italianate village. As for the Prisoner in this series, he is not so much taken
to The Village, but left to find it for himself!
Be seeing you
