DVD Release
In early 2010, Warner Home Video released The Prisoner in DVD format in Region 1/North America in a 3-disc collection.
Special features include deleted scenes for all episodes (including scenes from "Arrival" that explicitly indicate that 2 orders the bombing of the diner), and commentaries on "Arrival" and "Checkmate".
Featurettes in the set include:
- "A 6 Hour Film Shot in 92 Days: The Diary of the Prisoner" – behind-the-scenes documentary on the making of the series, featuring footage previously available online.
- "Beautiful Prison: The World of the Prisoner" – a second behind-the-scenes documentary.
- "The Prisoner ComicCon Panel" – Jim Caviezel, Lennie James, Bill Gallagher, and others discuss the then-upcoming series at the 2009 San Diego ComiCon.
- "The Man Behind 2" – Jamie Campbell Bower conducts a tongue-in-cheek interview with his TV father, Ian McKellen.
ITV Studios Home Entertainment released a UK DVD and Blu-ray Disc on 3 May 2010. The listed extras include the deleted scenes, ComicCon panel and McKellen interview, but differ otherwise. They will reportedly include:
- "The Making of" for all 6 episodes
- "Inside The Prisoner" for all 6 episodes
- The Prisoner Read Through
- Character Profiles

Famous quotes containing the word release:
“The near touch of death may be a release into life; if only it will break the egoistic will, and release that other flow.”
