Guest scooterboy Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 On studying the picture , I've now come to the conclusion that this is from the alternate arrival where he is being escorted away from the helicopter. Am I close.? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest scooterboy Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 ok then mick if i must its Patrick Mcgoohan aka the prisoner aka No 6 its "The village" aka Portmerion behind No 6 is a Rover that is guiding him away from the helicopter on the green near the stone boat to 1 side and the pool on the other this one was never shown on tv as it was the alternate arrival. 1st episode on 29th september 1967 @ 7.30 pm on ATV Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest scooterboy Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 More useless information. The rovers were meteorological ballons, they were moved by the downdraft from a helicoptor and then the film was played backwards. Clough Williams-Ellis built Portmeirion from 1925 to 1975 on a peninsula off the coast of Snowdonia to show how 'the development of a naturally beautiful site need not lead to its defilement'. He fought for Beauty - "that strange necessity". Portmeirion is owned by a Registered Charity called The Second Portmeirion Foundation and managed by Portmeirion Limited.
