My Partner the Ghost (1969–1971)
9/10
Still as enjoyable as in the 60s...
11 October 2022
As a child in the 60s my whole family loved this series. It's just as enjoyable today. The chemistry between Randall and Hopkirk is great and there's just the right balance between humour and an action packed cosy mystery to solve. Each episode solves a case and Hopkirk is adorable in his white suit and helpless panic all the time. It's fun to watch him improve his powers from the beyond. I don't know why the original show has had a change of name but it airs in the UK with it's original title. I heard there was a remake a few years ago but I haven't wanted to check it out because I love the original. There's actually a lot more action than I remembered and poor Randall is beaten up in every episode more than once!! Lots of work for his stunt double but it looks like he probably incurred a lot of bumps and scrapes himself during the making of the show. Great wholesome fun.
