  • This video is a clip from the late 80s programme The Tube. In this episode Jools Holland did a spoof of the 60s programme The Prisioner. The car Jools is driving is a Caterham Super Seven, the car in The Prisioner was a Lotus Seven. The cars are very similar as Caterham bought the rights to make the Seven from Lotus. Both cars share the famous registration KAR120C.

    The best and smoothest parody...of course Holland has access to top production to do his parody.

    A friend of mine's grandfather was in this homage. As it was during the school holidays we went with him to the filming. We were bloody lucky little sods

    I am of the assumption that Channel Four who ran The Tube, did this to promote the re-run of The Prisoner ... they showed it in September 1984 into early 1985.

    This was from 1987 - the XTC section from the programme was previewed by Paula Yates on The Tube a few weeks in advance of the special being aired.

    I wonder if Jools obtained permission from Caterham to use the registration plate, the famous KAR120C, for this parody.

    • @cologne2792

      Caterham owned the plate and probably lent him the car. They used to use it on demonstrators.

    From memory it was in the early 1980s, about 1983. Siouxsie and the Banshees did The Passenger and I think Stephen Fry got involved.

    I don't remember Jools Holland being in The Prisoner. Which episode is that?

    • @wainwright3

      Rob Burfy This was from an episode of The Tube, a teatime music programme in the 80s. They did this scene in the programme and then had the bands play in Portmerrion rather than in the studios in Newcastle. I saw the show when it was broadcast and loved the bit where he spoofed the title sequence so I'm so pleased to see it preserved here ... and to see it again after 30 years.

    Nicely done - right down to using the original typeface - but the intro is well OTT. I remember seeing this when it was first shown.
