And one thing I forgot to say... did anyone else spot how the front door of No 6's door opens electronically as the Butler enters it at the end... just as it would in the Village?


I didn't! Thank you for telling me that.


Yeah, it happens just as the hearse goes by - the same hearse where the driver pumped the gas into No 6's house in Arrival!


I noticed the hearse - but the fact that it was leaving, not arriving, seemed a positive to me.

Anyway, thanks all for your company, and Be Seeing You!
Vote Og.

Right. I have to go now. I thoroughly enjoyed The Prisoner - despite, or perhaps because of, the weirdness. See you the week after next!

OK, let's send TT off to his Speedway season with a hearty thank you for the Prisoner, and try to decide what to watch next. Lorna - any ideas?

Looks like we have a couple of weeks to come up with ideas but here is one...some classic sf films?


Excellent idea - but are people up for long sessions?

Well I wasn't thinking of modern ones cos they go on and on. But some 50s or 60s classics don't stay around long...90 minutes on average.


Did you have anything specific in mind?

Forbidden Planet? Time Machine? Day the Earth Caught Fire or Stood Still? Quatermass and the Pit has Gareth Thomas briefly and Julian Glover in it...(have we done that already?)

Not a bad list. Are they available foc? I can announce it on the NEWS page once we've decided - hoping to entice some more rewatchers to join in.

I could get behind a Selective Sci-Fi Season. I'd chuck in original 'War of the Worlds', 'Bodysnatchers' and the bizarrely hilarious 'Wasp Woman' (which was on YouTube last time I looked). Can't do this Thursday - as you know, I've an urgent appointment with ABBA in the Neths - but after that I'd be selectively up for a selection.

Hell's teeth...it lives!
We'll take a look at yr selections when you return from something related to ABBA in the Netherlands....what could that be? Laters, taters.
