"My name is Thomas Veil, or at least it was. I'm a photographer. I had it all: a wife, Alyson, friends, a career, and in one moment it was all taken away. All because of a single photograph. I have it, they want it, and they will do anything to get the negatives. I'm keeping this diary as proof that these events are real. I know they are, they have to be."
 A more recent television show which borrows much from "The Prisoner" is "Nowhere Man". "Nowhere Man" was a television series which was prematurely cancelled by UPN after the 1995-96 season. "Nowhere Man" starred Bruce Greenwood as a documentary photographer, Thomas Veil, who takes a picture of an execution in a Third World country. After an exhibition of his photographs, he and his wife go out to dinner. Upon returning from a smoke in the bathroom, his wife has vanished and the restaurant manager no longer knows him. When he returns to his home, his wife treats him like a stranger and is apparently married to another man. None of his friends or relatives know him anymore. He is forced into a psychiatric hospital but soon learns they are part of the conspiracy. He escapes with the negatives (of the photograph of the execution) which are so important to "them" and sets out on a trek to find the answers and regain his erased life.
