Arrival
Originally there was to have been a fight between two men in a fish pond
located outside Lower and Upper Trinity cottages. However the scene having been
shot, was cut from the finished episode. And yet, if you watch carefully as the
Prisoner mounts the steps leading up to the Piazza, there are two men fighting,
they grapple with each other and fall into the pool of water. As the scene
plays out the two men continue to fight in the water, they appear to be
squabbling over something yellow in the water. But then a few moments later
when Number 2 gives to order to “Wait, wait” the two men in the water are
suddenly no longer there! But what about that chap wearing a dark piped blazer,
straw boater messing about in a little dinghy in the pool. The dinghy is pulled
along by the chap who goes running about to eventually be smothered by the membranic
Guardian. The dinghy probably manhandled instead of being rowed because the
water isn’t deep enough for him to use a pair of oars!
