The Prisoner has been recognized as one of the most important modern television programs. After earning acclaim as the secret agent John Drake in Danger Man, Patrick McGoohan knew that his next move was the most important. Offered the lead in the James Bond film Dr. No, McGoohan declined and recommended his good friend Sean Connery. Instead of embarking on a mad adventure of explosions, car ch ases and lovely ladies, McGoohan instead developed an existential weekly TV dram exploring the reality of modern life and the role of the individual.

In the Prisoner, McGoohan played a similar character to John Drake, a retired secret agent who was abducted and brought to a secluded island. Referred to as 'the Village,' the authority of this paradise setting demanded to know why he resigned. Week after week, his resolve was challenged, but he retained his individuality until the end.

In addition to these heavy concepts was an absolutely bizarre sport called Kosho.

The sport invented by Patrick McGoohan for his series The Prisoner, 'Kosho' is as much an enigma as 'who is number one?'

Put on a robe, crash helmet and catchers mitt and learn the sport of the future that is coming!
