Patrick McGoohan as The Prisoner. Those floppy balloons bouncing over the grassy hills of the English countryside were the stupidest villains I'd ever seen.

Apparently McGoohan was one of your favorites, John. It appears that he was filming Danger Man and The Prisoner in the same years, '67 and '68.

I thought he left the one to do the other. And to be totally honest, I never saw this show. I just heard about it.

Orwellian dystopia. Really, the stupid giant floppy balloons (like weather ballons) I mentioned bounced along the ground when a prisoner tried to escape the village and enveloped them. Very silly, not malevolent as intended.

Giant killer floppy balloons... sorry I missed that!
