Photograph – "The Prisoner": Vote for Number 6!
This black and white 10 x 15 cm photograph is taken from a key moment in the cult British TV series The Prisoner, first aired in 1967. It shows a parade of musicians and villagers holding signs bearing the face of Patrick McGoohan, portraying the iconic Number 6. The scene is from the episode Free for All, which parodies a rigged election in the bizarre world of the Village.
The Prisoner is a groundbreaking and philosophical series created by and starring Patrick McGoohan. It follows a former secret agent held captive in a mysterious coastal village where names are replaced by numbers and constant surveillance reigns. This particular episode mocks the illusion of democracy in a totalitarian system, where even rebellion is co-opted by the establishment.
The image captured here is both absurd and symbolic, with a brass band, political posters, and a festive atmosphere disguising the sinister control mechanisms underneath. A striking visual moment for fans of vintage television, 1960s pop culture, and dystopian fiction.
