The Prisoner: A. B. and C. (1967)
Season 1, Episode 3
9/10
A real nightmare
9 October 2017
Warning: Spoilers
This is a lot like 'The Schizoid Man' in that the bad guys seem far more sinister than usual. This time, they're active spectators in Number 6's dreams, manipulating them just enough to find out why 6 resigned. Or at least they hope to.

All of the tension in 'A, B and C' resides on their end (with 6 again out cold on the exam table). There's a real focus on the bureaucracy of the organization; specifically, Number 2's complete lack of job security. As good as this is, there's nothing better than that final shot of Number 2 staring at that ringing phone.

9/10
