Here's an obit from AOL: http://www.popeater.com/television/article/prisoner-star-patrick-mcgoohan-dies/306288
Some additions to the above:
DANGER MAN was known in the U.S. as SECRET AGENT--inspiring the Johnny Rivers hit "Secret Agent Man."
THE PRISONER is being remade as a cable series with Jim Caviezel (in McGoohan's role) and Sir Ian McKellan.
And here's a preliminary obit for Ricardo Montalban, known as an MGM contract player in the 1950s and a key supporting actor in episodes of the STAR TREK/PLANET OF THE APES/SPY KIDS theatrical film series: http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-mew-montalban15-2009jan15,0,7457363.story. Montalban is probably best known for playing Mr. Roarke on the long-running ABC series FANTASY ISLAND.
Also, Montalban played a key role in the advancement of Latino theatre in Los Angeles.
