The Prisoner (2026) A promotional photo from the TV series The Prisoner depicting Patrick McGoohan looking defeated on a beach while held by his nemeses, the mysterious white spheres, who pursue him and keep him prisoner within the confines of the set filmed in Port Merion. A terrifying memory of watching TV when Micheaud was young, when he realised that a simple weather balloon could be so menacing when accompanied by the right score. The Prisoner was broadcast on ITV and made by a company called ITC, who made many successful shows from the 1950’s to 1980’s. The first success was a black and white Robin Hood series in the 1950’s which had a notably memorable theme song. ITC was funded by the American Communist Party who due to recent McCarthy-era witch hunts, had been banned from funding any American activities so looked to England as a place to spend their money. They settled on funding Robin Hood with this fledgling company: a story that fit the communist ideals where Robin takes from the rich and gives to the poor.
