In past years whenever I
have seen an actor or actress on television or feature film who appeared in
‘the Prisoner,’ I would say to the wife, or she would say to me, look, there’s
number so and so. Or there’s Guy Doleman {Number 2} or Peter Howell {the
Professor}, and Hugo Schuster {Professor Seltzman} seen recently in the 1953
film ‘House of Blackmail,’ to name less than a handful. Guy Doleman is the
Colonel in the ‘Ipcress File,’ ‘Funeral In Berlin,’ and The Billion Dollar
Brain.’ It’s a little game we like to play. But now we have been doing this
with actors and actresses who appeared in THEPRIS6NER , and now for me Ian
Mckellen will always be 2. Vincent Regan who played 909 {Anvil} is always
turning up in different television dramas. And Sara Stewart {1891 in Darling}
appeared in the BBC drama ‘Mrs. Foster.’ That’s all really, it’s just a game I’ve
played over the years, and continue to do so with actors and actresses from THEPRIS6NER . Most recently Ruth Wilson
{313 in THEPPRIS6NER } plays her own grandmother Mrs Wilson in a BBC television drama of the
same name which commences on November 27th
2018 .
Be seeing you
