Yours is a fair enough comment, b...Hello Karen,<br /> Yours is a fair enough comment, but I’m not so sure they really had to go all the way back to the Prisoner as an infant! Mind you looking at that picture as Number 6 as a baby, it might have been the only time he was truly happy!<br /> <br /> I would argue the point about the book being back to front, ie that the back of said book should have started with him being a baby then work through the book to the point when he was thinking of going on holiday. The general rule is a persons baby pictures go in an album first, and as photographs are inserted of a person’s life they are done so front to back, not back to front. Otherwise when one looks through a photograph album of a person’s life, they go through the progression of that person’s life. To do it back to front would be like regressing that person’s life, which is what the Prisoner did, but not what happened on the wall screen! None of which explains why?<br /><br />Best regards<br />David<br />Be seeing youDavid Stimpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15196038086564981619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036104775563265647.post-75043482422395534912017-01-07T18:52:18.135+00:002017-01-07T18:52:18.135+00:00Hello David,
Bravo!
My thoughts exactly...did the...Hello David,<br /><br />Bravo!<br />My thoughts exactly...did they really keep track of him from cradle to ...well, you know! Or as you said, did they go back to his birth for every bit of information that they could get?<br />Another thought that I had about this is that possibly this was done in order to find out if an agent, scientist, whatever...had something in their past that could be used to control them.<br />Blackmail could be a way to get someone to do something that they wouldn't ordinarily do.<br /><br />As for The Prisoner looking at the book from Back to Front...the back of the book should have started with his birth and worked it's way up to the present time...so because he started in the back of the book it also follows that the pictures on the screen would go from baby pictures to the most recent...and that the most recent events...i.e. his resignation ..might not YET be IN the book!<br />Sadly...for the Village...that book was unfinished!<br /><br />As for me, The Prisoner will be a source of both entertainment and intrigue for as long as I am capable of thinking!<br /><br />BCNU<br />KarenAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11216072285740409212noreply@blogger.com
