RANDALL AND HOPKIRK (DECEASED) T-SHIRT

A classic TV t-shirt available in black or white cotton.

Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased) — the title alone sets the tone for one of British television’s most brilliantly bizarre crime-solving duos. First airing in 1969, this cult classic paired the living with the dead in a delightfully oddball detective drama drenched in swinging ‘60s style and spectral suspense.

Jeff Randall, the cool, cynical private eye, was the boots-on-the-ground gumshoe. His partner? Marty Hopkirk — a loyal friend, tragically killed in the line of detective duty… but far from gone. Resurrected as a ghost, Marty stuck around as a white-suited wraith to help Randall solve cases, torment enemies, and confuse the cops with an all-knowing edge from the afterlife.

With a stylish blend of supernatural intrigue, sly British humour, and a kaleidoscope of groovy mod aesthetics, Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased) became a late-night legend — one that lived on in reruns, remakes, and reverence. The show was equal parts mystery and madness, with each episode mixing murder with the metaphysical. Marty, only visible to Jeff, often added surreal comic timing and spectral sarcasm to every scenario. Together, they were crime’s most unconventional combo — one corporeal, one clearly not.
