The Girl Who Was Death - S1-E15

Other mistake: When the girl makes her getaway in the helicopter and Number 6 emerges from the bushes and climbs aboard, look at the trees on the horizon as the helicopter takes off and supposedly lands later in another location. You can see that the helicopter takes off and lands in the same field. Also, the shot of Number 6 hiding behind bushes before jumping on the helicopter, and after climbing off it is the same one. It's from a slightly different angle the second time, but it's the same bush.

Number 6: Unlike me, many of you have accepted the situation of your imprisonment, and will die here like rotten cabbages.

Chosen answer: We're led to believe Rover is some kind of robot in the series. According to books on the show, Patrick McGoohan was looking for an unusual guardian for the Village, looked up at the sky, and saw a weather balloon, which was what Rover was.
