Anecdotes

The Vauxhall Victor 2000 driven by Jeff Randall was registered RXD 996F, while the Vauxhall Ventora seen chiefly in Department S was registered RXD 997F. Both cars came from Vauxhall Motors Ltd's publicity fleet and the Ventora actually appears in one or two episodes of R&H as well. More than one car was used as Jeff Randall's Victor during the filming of R&H - you can spot the differences by the colour of the interior - some scenes depict a black cabin, others a burgundy one. Fans wanting to track down the Victor may be saddened to note that it was last seen in a scrapyard in 1976.

Kenneth Cope infamously (and accidentally) wore his wig back-to-front in the first few episodes.

Irish comedian Dave Allen turned down the role of Jeff Randall.

Marty Hopkirk's white suit has no pockets as "ghosts don't need pockets".

Despite being slightly older, Cope outlived Pratt by 48 years.
