"What do you want?"
"Ball in-fla-tion"
"You'll never get it!"
"By hook or by crook, we will."

@TheBreadmonkey fun fact; Portmeirion (the filming location) is open to tourists, and the gift shop sells those balls. We considered getting one and didn't, but we did get a tea towel that coincidentally is the current tea towel.

@TheBreadmonkey Coincidentally, my ringtone for the past I-don't-know-how-many years is from Episode 1 of The Prisoner:
(Electronic 'ring' sounds from telephone with the number 6 on it)
Operator: Is your number six?
Prisoner: Yes.
Operator: Just one moment, I have a call for you.
