RIP Patrick McGoohan

Longshanks?

That dude ruled.



The trouble with Scotland, is that it's full of Scots.

 

RIP to a great actor.

I have all of the Danger Man/Secret Agent and the Prisoner episodes on DVD. Guess I know what I'll perusing during some down time.

 

A musical tribute to Number 6 (available on Rhino's Children of Nuggets box).

 

We were actually shown "The Prisoner" regularly in public school, I'm thinking around Grade 6 or 7.

I'm not certain as to why, but it was one of a number of suspenseful shows we were exposed to back then by our teachers. I think we were very fortunate.

RIP.

 

He was pure evil in that film. I always like the scene where he throws his son's gay lover out the window because he didn't like his military advice.

 

In his review of Braveheart for the Los Angeles Times critic Peter Rainer said, “McGoohan is in possession of perhaps the most villainous enunciation in the history of acting.”
