Channel 4 are laying claim to some content in this. Can you spot anything they might own the rights to? I'd love to know what you -or they- might think is theirs :)

[cllewis1]

they must have time on their hands. this is original content with references. I don't know about UK law, but in the USA we have a concept called "fair use" which governs our right to use copyrighted material for personal purposes. We can record stuff off-air for personal use, we can publish small amounts of video or audio...but parody is fully protected - you could literally copy every word of a script aslong as itwas parody and you would be protected.

[SimplyPaul]

I'm happy to report than since being challenged Channel 4 have backed down and agree they've no claim on anything in this video. I think it's the words 'Adam and Joe-esque' which confused an idiot working for them. They *do* own all the Adam and Joe Show soft-toy spoofs... but as you say this is all content original to me. I love a happy ending :)

@SimplyPaul F**k Channel 4.

I like the subtle changes to the opening titles. You should do a spoof of Fall Out as well. I can see that working very well. I LOVE THE VOICE OF NUMBER 2! ALL OF THIS IS SO CLEVER! You've inspired me to make my own kind of The Prisoner spoof. IT'S JUST SUCH A COOL SERIES!

[SimplyPaul]

I am working on a PB3(&4?) script. 'Dance of the Ted' is a spoof of Once Upon A Time and Fall Out. It may end up split into two episodes (with one being called Free Fur All because it's the best title joke I have left). Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed the silliness and the voice was stolen from my (poor) Orson Wells impression :)

[j3pfilms]

The voice reminded me of Marvin the Paranoid Android from Hitch Hikers Guide. I was expecting him to say, "I'm feeling very depressed" at any moment. I really do look forward to Dance of the Ted. From one Prisoner fan and amateur film maker to another good luck!

[flumpingjumpers]

I have that bear! He's about 12 years old I think :D

[flumpingjumpers]

Seriously, this is bizzar. That bear is my main childhood bear, the one that sits on my bed and to see him less squished staring in The Prisoner is just wierd.

[cragwolf]

Brilliant. In a future episode, I would love to see Number 6 engaging in a round of Kosho, and perhaps training on his improvised high bar. A game of bear chess would be nice, too (don't forget the loudspeakers). Be seeing you.

[noangies]

brilliant - wonderfull- fantastic--please more!

[platelicka]

love it.

[Eightmilesintexas]

Just total entertainment, I loved this soo much. Fantastic work. Is Dance of the ted out or have you cancelled it??? I would really like to see a third!!! BRILLIANT! I love the Prisoner

[SimplyPaul]

Dance or the Ted is still on the cards, but as I want to do it justice and have a lot of other stuff on my plate at the moment, it's on hold for now. Stay tuned though, as it well be here someday! - Glad you enjoyed this one in the meantime :)

[rustymurphy]

[sjb2472]

Fantastic again!!! As memorable as the original.  Thanks again and be seeing you!

[johnty505]

You can call him Number 2... but he's still a piece of pooh.
