Randall & Hopkirk is a British television series, produced by Working Title Films for BBC One. It is a remake of the 1960s television series Randall and Hopkirk and stars Vic Reeves as Hopkirk and Bob Mortimer as Randall, Emilia Fox as Jeannie, and Tom Baker as Wyvern. Two series were made, the first in 1999 and the second in 2001. The entire first series was written and produced by Charlie Higson, who also directed some episodes. The second series employed some other writers, including Gareth Roberts, Mark Gatiss and Jeremy Dyson. Many episodes also included storylines that paid... homage to the original show, as well as other 1960s shows - especially those made by ITC Entertainment, the original show's production company. In the fifth episode of series one, a clip of Mike Pratt , from the original series episode "The Smile Behind the Veil", was included. Marty encounters him in Limbo.
