Andrew Marshall was one half of the
Marshall Renwick team that produced "
The Burkiss Way", "Whoops Apocalypse", and "Hot Metal". Since then he has gone on to create the TV comedies such as "2 point 4 Children", "Health & Efficiency", and "Dad".
Rumour has it that he is at least partly the basis for the personality of
Marvin the Paranoid Android from
The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
