I just saw Patrick McGoohan in an old Disney movie, “Three Lives of Thomasina” I would never have watched it except it happened to be on the channel I was watching

He played in another Disney movie, The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh. That was my all time favorite Disney production as a kid.

PEGASUS BRIDGE, JUNE 1944 Richard Todd is in the photo.

Years later he would play the role in The Longest Day of holding Pegasus Bridge until relieved.

I too remember “The Scarecrow”. Way back in the early to mid 60’s we would always watch “The Wonderful World of Disney” Most of the programs were really movies with an installment each week for two or three weeks.

They were nearly all great movies. Really well done in every way. Far better than most of the TV fare we see now.

I can remember almost nothing of the scarecrow except that he was something of a Robin Hood character.

I remember Patrick McGoohan as the warden in “Escape From Alcatraz”, and he played Longshanks in “Braveheart”. Hard to believe it was the same guy, but the voice is unmistakeable.
