I’ve been running episodes through IMDB.
A lot of Bond and a few Prisoner co-stars.
Plus Templar references some obscure artist or historical figure in some episodes. Many have a basis in truth.
I have all the Bond movies on DVD. I have the
metal briefcase with all the DVD's at the time it was released in 2006 (Note: That is not me), in unopened condition, along with 3 other briefcases that are open. I have the
cheesy tin box that usually you can find that have rust spots, that too is unopened. I also have unopened DVD's that came in individual tin cases. I have a poker chip set that was only available in Australia that came with the DVD Casino Royale (can't find an example of that, very hard to come by. In fact the one I bought was the only one I ever saw).
I never got into the prisoner, though I know about it. Might be something I could get into now
I'll have to pay attention to see if I can catch any examples of the obscure artist or historical figures you mention. I had never heard that before. 8>)
