  1. Never saw the series. Only know is very, very weird. That, and the famous sentence about being a man and not a number.

  2. I have this set somewhere packed away. I remember when the series was originally broadcast. Something weird indeed.

    It was always said he wasn't john Drake(that may have been for legal reasons). I do know that in the three Ace novels, or rather two and three, he had a key chain emblem with the initials JD in the first, and the opening sentence in three was Drake woke.

  3. I remember reading these years ago and enjoying them. I should dig those out of the long box trenches.

  4. Patrick McGoohan always said that Number Six was not Drake, but then, he had to, since he owned The Prisoner but not Danger Man/Secret Agent.
