The Prisoner picture

Arrival - S1-E1

Corrected entry: Everyone in the Village is supposed to have a number instead of a name. Yet, Tom Cobb, the ex-agent Number 6 recognizes in the medical ward, is for some reason an exception. Number 2, the doctor, Number 4 and Number 6 himself all call the man Cobb.

Jean G

Correction: Numbers are used to conceal prisoners' identities. Number 6 recognises Cobb from the outside world, after which there's no point in anybody calling him anything else.

To Stand for Something More - S3-E6

Corrected entry: When he falls into the water, Blue's hat flies off and floats to the middle of the pond. He never wades out after it, but somehow it reappears beside him just in time for him to put it on and climb ashore. (00:15:00)

Jean G

Correction: The thing in the middle of the pond was already there in previous shot and is not his hat.

Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons picture

Big Ben Strikes Again - S1-E3

Corrected entry: The Director-General of the United Asian Republic is seen to be alive and well in the restaurant scene at the end of the episode. This is very odd, as he was supposed to have been killed at the end of the previous episode ("Winged Assassin") when his plane crashed on take off from London Airport.

Correction: The waiter is not The Director-General himself. It is only the same puppet used as a background character.
