Oh very funny
Sir Charles, for someone who might well have been superfluous to this episode
of ‘Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling,’ had it not been for the fact that the
Colonel had been seconded to The Village!
Twice before when ZM73 had escaped the confines of The Village he went running straight to the Colonel. Admittedly the first time was a put up job, but nevertheless had ZM73 reachedLondon
So Sir Charles, did you really know your future son-in-law had been abducted to The Village? Were you lying to your daughter when she put it to you that you had known all this time, and let her go through that hell. You sent him on a mission, and he couldn’t get in touch with her. Did you honestly know that ZM73 cannot get in touch with Janet? If you didn’t send him on a mission, and you said that you had told Janet more than you should, you shouldn’t have been telling her that. So when you said you had no idea where he was, were you telling Janet the truth? You don’t even know anyone who does know where he is, or so you claim! It’s awful, we’re like Janet, we don’t know if you’re telling the truth or not! Did you know that ZM73 had in fact handed in his resignation? If you did you certainly hadn’t told your daughter, as she was under the impression he was still working for you. What was it she said when the Colonel/Prisoner said “Miss Portland you must be aware of the kind of work he did,” “Obviously, working for my father.” So Janet was unaware of her fiancé having handed in his resignation!

Did the Colonel know that ZM73 had handed in
his resignation?
Did Sir Charles actually know where ZM73 was, that he had been abducted to The Village? If he didn’t, someone was keeping Sir Charles in the dark. But that’s the trouble, because even after 50 years there is an uncertainty about Sir Charles Portland which persists to this day.
So what’s number six? As well as being a transparency slide, it’s an in-joke of a kind, contrived to make the television viewers ears prick up and the mind automatically think Sir Charles knows about Number 6. He could have easily said what is number 25, or 7, or number 11. But he said number six, which I’m sure is deliberate, to cause an effect. To say what’s number six?” It’s suggestive to the subconscious mind.
A keen rosairian, I wonder what the name of the rose is in his button hole? It looks plastic to my eye!
