Hi,

I was saddened to hear on this morning news that one of my heroes had died. One of my earliest memories was watching John Drake (the character played by Patrick) in Danger Man. But it was the series he devised, directed and starred in that left an almighty impression on me - The Prisoner (I'm not a number - I am a free man!!) one of TV's classic series.

Below is a link with the announcement of his death.

And here is a link to the opening sequence of The Prisoner.

Be seeing you

Sorry to hear of his passing, he brought me a lot of enjoyment when I was younger.
