"A man who drives a 60's lotus sports car around London, resigns from a Top secret job. We next see him packing for a holiday at home, and a credit appears ... "The Prisoner". He is gassed, falls asleep and then wakes up in "The Village". Everyone in "The Village" is a number, and is there for security reasons (people to dangerous and who hold too much information to just let go). The series spends all it's time trying to get the "information" out of No.6 about why he resigned. Plus it spends quite a while chasing him with a weather balloon :-) A strange cult UK TV series."
Straight from the horses mouth it would seem, lol.
Basically its like what DaddyMack and Teufel said. Based on the bands fav show...Plus i saw a documentry about The Number of the Beast album, and Dickinson said "The Prisoner" was based on the TV series
