Featured review
Birthday
Number six(Patrick McGoohan) wakes up one morning and finds to his astonishment that the village is completely deserted! Suspicious of course, he nonetheless decides to take advantage of the situation and make his escape, once again building a small boat from scratch, taking to the open sea, and making his way back to London, which takes many days and nights, but the multi-skilled and steel-willed "six" survives this ordeal and reaches home, but once again finds that this was of course too good to be true, and turns out to be not the birthday present he had fought and hoped for...Memorable episode has a familiar scenario but still packs quite a punch, with a most effective closing scene.
