Summary: 

The Prisoner was actually filmed at the Hotel Portmerion in Wales (so in
some sense, that's where the vilage is, or could be).

Rover was something of an accident.  It was originally envisioned (and
built) as a robot/machine-like entity.  Unfortunately their machine proved
to be very cranky, especially in water.  It was out of commision and they
had to film something, when they happened to see these weather baloons
laying about...
