TV-Commentary - The Prisoner
Did Number 6 or Patrick McGoohan like women?
Ever notice how sharp and suspicious #6 was of all women? Do you think he liked women?

Number 6: "You'll find I'm quite tearproof. Get out!"

On a related point, ever notice how Patrick McGoohan made all women doubleagents on the show and never made any of them sympathetic? Do you think he liked women?

McGoohan turned down Bond because he thought Bond was to frisky. He was offered the role before Connery

Patrick McGoohan decided to avoid any romantic interesting regarding number 6 so as to take some distance from the James Bond attitude. The many writers who collaborated with him during the series have tried to include love stories but McGoohan turned them down. Itīs not that heīs gay or chauvinist, just that introducing love affairs would take out some of the serieīs unusual feeling.
