In this special episode we look at the new deluxe hardcover The Prisoner: Original Art Edition based on The Prisoner from Titan Comics. We chat to editor David Leach about how this project came together and what fans can expect from this long-awaited release. This new collection features two alternate versions of 'Arrival', the first episode of The Prisoner, both previously unreleased. The first adaptation is written and drawn by the legendary Jack Kirby, the second is written by Steve Englehart and drawn by Gil Kane. We discuss the new book and the extensive bonus supplemental material. Be seeing you!

The Tally Ho - The Prisoner episode 11: It's Your Funeral

The Tally Ho welcomes you to The Village as we continue our journey through classic TV series The Prisoner. In this episode we look at It's Your Funeral, the eleventh episode of The Prisoner. When he is tipped off by Number 50 (a terrific guest turn by Annette Andre), Number 6 (Patrick McGoohan) is drawn into an assassination plot apparently targeting the new Number 2 (Derren Nesbitt). The mystery deepens when he realises who is behind the plot and whom the real target is. Join us as we discuss this unusual episode which deepens the mythology of the show and features an array of new Village characters involved in this intricately plotted caper. We also take detours into some of the behind-the-scenes anecdotes that influenced the shape of the episode, Number 6's waterskiing skills, the number of Number 2s in the episode and the return of kosho!

We are also joined by the wonderful Annette Andre (who starred as Number 50 in this episode) to discuss her time working on The Prisoner and her incredible career on stage and screen. Be seeing you!
