The BBC remade the TV show Randall Hopkirk and cast Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer as the two main characters.

The main theme was done by a certain mister David Arnold (or atleast the new version was).

I have a copy of the theme in the title, but I heard that a version of the theme was done by Nina Persson and David Arnold and was just over 3 minutes long.

Does anyone have it and if so where can I get it?

I have the theme from Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased), both the vocal version with Nina Persson and David Arnold's instrumental version. If you have AOL Instant Messenger, my username's Kiryuu2003. Alternatively, if there's any IRC chatrooms you visit regularly, let me know where I can find you and I'd be more than happy to pass the songs on.

Unfortunately I don't have AOL Instant Messenger, but I do have MSN Messenger.

I'm not really into chatrooms, but if you use any, then post the addy here, and when you'll be online and I'll come and find you.

Thanks,
Sean

Oh, just a question Icarus-UK, how did you get hold of them?

I got them through KaZaA, but it took a long time to find and download them. It was worth it, though.

I bought the single when it came out. Much the easier method!

I agree Mark, it's also got Vic Reeves' version of 'Ain't That A Kick In The Head'. The theme is good, and very hummable. I suggest buying the single off eBay or through a second-hand CD vendor. I'd hate to think that CBn was being used as a go-between for music peddling. :)

Actually, I almost got the CD single from Amazon.com - but I got refunded because the guy who was selling it forgot that he had already sold it to someone else. :)
