A favourite Scene In The Prisoner

    During ‘Checkmate’ when after pursuing Number 53 {the Rook} he finally catches up with him at the base of the Bell Tower. Number 6 reaches through an open window and grabs 53’s arm. Patrick McGoohan was six feet two and a half inches tall, and gives the impression that he’s reaching through a high window to reach the Rook. Not a bit of it, seeing as that’s a pretty low window 6 is reaching through, Patrick McGoohan would have to be on his knees. And I cannot help but visualise that in my mind’s eye every time I watch that scene.

Be seeing you
