Is he having a laugh? “Welcome to the
village sir” Village, Kandersfled is more like a town than a village. And why
say Village, why not Welcome to Kandersfeld, after all that’s where they are.
Surely the waiter didn’t say “Welcome to the village sir” in order to unsettle
ZM73. That would mean the waiter is an agent working for The Village, which
would be ridiculous!
Certainly in having arrived at the café in Kandersfeld there is a parallel with the scene at the café in The Village on the morning of the Prisoner’s arrival in The Village, in that the waitress offered him breakfast. The waiter appears out of the café holding a menu ready to perhaps offer ZM73 breakfast. But that’s natural anyway when you arrive early enough at a café you are expected to eat or drink something, so there’s nothing more to be made out of that.

Hello David,
ReplyDeleteHappy 2017 !!!
I notice the paper in his other hand, what could be hidden inside that? Secret documents to be passed to ZM73 perhaps?

Hello Karen,
DeleteAnd a very happy New Year to you. I trust 2017 has got off to a good start for you.
I think you’ll probably find it’s more mundane than that. I think it’s a serviette, or table napkin he’s carrying in his other hand!
Be seeing you
