 Patrick McGoohan (qv) was adamant that Number Six not become  romantically involved with anyone on the series (carrying over a  policy he put in place for his John Drake character in "Danger  Man"). Nonetheless, writers tried to pair Number Six up with female  leads on a few occasions, only to have their efforts vetoed by  McGoohan. The characters played by Nadia Gray (qv) in "Chimes of  Big Ben" and Angela Browne (qv) in "A Change of Mind" were both  written as love interests for Number Six, and there was reportedly a  bed scene written for "Chimes" but McGoohan would have none of it.  The closest Number Six comes to romance is in his  friendship/sympatico with Alison in "The Schizoid Man" and in the  character of an observer who falls in love with him in "Dance of the  Dead."
