by chance anyone watched the prisoner before? its an old series ..like really old before i exist..1967.. ive been reading this book n it mentions something about...here goes i copied from the book tongue.gif which i tot was interesting..but series so old not sure if its good..anyone?

In reality, no one’s usually trying to prevent us from achieving our goals. The situation is most often one like that brilliantly portrayed in the British TV series The Prisoner. Throughout the series the hero, identified as Number Six, is trying to escape from evil people who are working for the villain, Number One. Finally, in the last episode he understands the answer to his question “Who is Number One?” When he first heard the answer in episode 1, it sounded like “You are Number Six.” Now he understands that the answer to “Who is Number One?” is “You are, Number Six.” He had metaphorically imprisoned himself. As Franz Kafka put it, “It was a barred cage that he was in. Calmly and insolently, as if at home, the din of the world streamed out and in through the bars, the prisoner was really free, he could take part in everything, nothing that went on outside escaped him, he could simply have left the cage, the bars were yards apart, he was not even a prisoner.”

No wonder as it is from a Novel adaptation. Well not many of novel adaptation made it in commercial world of movies and being a hit at it.  Unless it is like a very big scale movies like Lord of the Rings  and commands tons of money  to realize it.  Even then people will critics that the movie is not exactly the same as in the novel.
