I would highly recommend the "network" DVD box set. It includes the original trailers for every episode, alternate early edits of the episodes Arrival and The Chimes of Big Ben, and a whole load of other extras such as title sequences with alternate themes which were considered (an interesting comparison with the Ron Grainer theme we've all come to know). It also includes a paperback book with background on the different episodes.

Yes i remember the repeats on BBC2 it was about 1994/5 and used to be on at about 6:00pm. I got the DVD 5 years ago from HMV in Liverpool when it was on offer at £30.00 down from £60.00. My 4 year old boy loves Randall and Hopkirk. BTW it was on ITV4 about a 18 months ago and it was cut to pieces. Its best to buy the DVD box set.

Those Network dvd boxsets are great.

That really goes for everything these days: The TV stations are hacking whole scenes out of shows and movies more and more to make extra time for commercials.

By the way, Randall & Hopkirk (Deceased) was shown in the U.S. under the different title of My Partner, The Ghost.
