KOROSHI and SHINDA SHIMA Part Two |
|
The very last episodes of 'Danger Man' show a very definite shift away from the style of the preceding series - more rounded characters, more adventure-based and less dependence on gadgets. When the decision was made not to make any more, but to produce 'The Prisoner' instead, it was the same production crew that went to work. They probably didn't even break step. With only minor changes, 'Koroshi' and particularly 'Shinda Shima' could even have been 'Prisoner' episodes. Have a look at the frame grabs below and spot the similarities. |

Is John Drake really Number Six? . . . Or are they both just Patrick McGoohan? |
