S1, E1: After handing in his resignation, The Prisoner heads off to his London home to pack for a holiday. He begins to feel faint and ends up unconscious. He awakes not in his house but in a strange village. He starts to explore but soon realises that in "The Village" all things such as phone calls, maps and taxis are "only local". He is shown around The Village by Number Two who explains that the information in his head is priceless and that he wants to know why he resigned. Welcome to your new home, Number Six.
