In truth, none of the 1964-66 "Danger Man" episodes was filmed there, however several episodes of McGoohan's earlier Danger Man (1960) series were.

Hobbs is always shown holding a knife.

Patrick McGoohan was adamant that Drake live up to a higher moral standard than the likes of James Bond. As a result, the character rarely becomes involved with women (beyond mission requirements), and rarely kills anyone - in fact he almost never carries a gun.
