The new Number 2 acts sadistically towards Number 6. But which of them is the hammer and which the anvil?
The original 17 episode TV series of The Prisoner created intrigue and controversy in equal measure when it first aired in the UK in 1967.
In a taut psychological spy thriller the main character, dehumanised as 鈥楴umber 6鈥�, has committed no crime, save for having resigned from some unspecified branch of the British Secret Service. His prison was an ornate heavily-guarded coastal village.
Under constant surveillance, Number 6 can trust no-one and relentlessly works to establish who his captors are. As the audio re-imagining continues, we discover more about the enigma of the personal life of Number 6.
