Welcome
Welcome to my website dedicated to the sixties television series Danger Man also known as Secret Agent Man in America, and Destination Danger in France. Staring Patrick McGoohan as John Drake.
I'm currently updating this site so if you have any information you'd like to share, please email me.
My website does touch upon the McGoohan cult masterpiece ‘The Prisoner’, looking at the links between the two series and the actors and actresses that appear in both. But if you're looking for more in-depth information on 'The Prisoner' then look no further than our sister-site ‘The Unmutual’.
PATRICK MCGOOHAN DIES AGED 80 (1928 - 2009)

The Danger Man website is very sad to confirm that Patrick McGoohan passed away in Los Angeles on Tuesday 13th January 2009 after a short illness.
McGoohan’s portrayal of ‘John Drake’ in ‘Danger Man’ made him a household name, although Patrick will be best remembered as ‘Number 6’ in the cult TV series ‘The Prisoner’. A series ahead of its time in the sixties, that still has a strong global following today.
I was extremely fortunate to receive a signed photograph and letter and from Patrick in November of last year in which he recalled the filming of the Danger Man episode ‘Not So Jolly Roger’.
He was an extremely fine actor and will be sadly missed.
Our thoughts and best wishes are with Patrick's family at this sad time.

MY LETTER FROM PATRICK MCGOOHAN
As I mentioned, I wrote to Patrick McGoohan in October 2008 and was lucky enough to get a letter back from him. I specifically asked him if he recalled the filming of the episode “Not so Jolly Roger” at “Red Sands Fort”. You can view the letter, and two autographed photographs by clicking on each of them.
RICK MINAS
The songs of Rick Minas feature in the Danger Man episode "Not so Jolly Roger". For 10 years I've been trying to locate these songs but have not had much success.
I have put together a Rick Minas Discography detailing all the works of Rick Minas and hope that someone can help me further with this. Maybe Rick's still about (maybe that's not his real name?) - I'd love to talk with him and Alan Killick (Music Editor).
MADMAN DANGER MAN BOXSET
Patrick McGoohan is John Drake aka Danger Man. Set in the deadly world of international espionage and intrigue, Drake is an agent who jousts with danger before a backdrop of diverse global locations.

NOT SO JOLLY ROGER
I'm trying to find more details about my favorite episode: Not So Jolly Roger, where Drake goes undercover as a Disc Jockey on a Pirate Radio Station.
In this episode many 'pop' songs are heard which were never released.
I'm pretty sure most of them were written and performed by Rick Minas. If you know where I can obtain recordings of these songs or more information about Rick please let me know.
