Jeannie Hopkirk is a fictional character from the 1969 ITC British cult paranormal series Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased) portrayed by [[Annette Andre](www.annetteandre.com)]
Jeannie is the young widow of Marty Hopkirk and serves as a secretary at the Randall and Hopkirk Private Investigation office. She is an attractive woman with neat blonde hair and a petite frame and build. Jeannie can prove a very useful character in Jeff Randall's exploits and she has saved him many times from an early demise. She is highly resourceful and able as a secretary but often she appears as very naive and vulnerable, which has put her own life in danger on many occasions.
In only the third episode, All Work and No Pay, she believes the tomfoolery of the Foster brothers as they use electronic equipment to pretend that the poltergeist of Marty is destroying her apartment. She believes that they are spiritualists who indeed have the ability to contact her deceased husband.
In episode 10, "When did You Start to Stop Seeing Things?", she again believes the enemy when they pretend that Marty's spirit needs to be exorcised and true to her nature she is as helpful as possible in aiding them unknowingly, placing her in another difficult situation.
Later, in episode 15, "The Man from Nowhere", Jeannie goes as far as partly to believe that an imposter is actually her deceased husband Marty in spirit, again emphasizing her vulnerability.
In the remake, Jeanie (Emilia Fox) was portrayed as a far stronger individual than in the original series; originally a waitress at a high-class restaurant, she quit her job after Marty's death- here Marty was her fiance rather than her husband- and joined Jeff at the agency, where she demonstrates a significant intellect. She is also an efficient hand-to-hand fighter, often easily disarming armed men with a kick. In another contrast to the original series, she rejects any idea that Marty might still be with her in some form, briefly having Jeff committed when he claims to see Marty's ghost shortly after Marty's death.
