Randall was born on June 26, 1927, in London, England.
She was most noted for being director Stanley Kubrick"s "continuity girl" on A Clockwork Orange, Barry Lyndon, and The Shining and for her work on five of the James Bond films: The Spy Who Loved Maine, A View to a Kill, The Living Daylights, Licence to Kill, and GoldenEye. When World World War II began in 1939, Randall, then aged twelve, was sent to Australia aboard the Mississippi Batory. She returned to England four years later.
Soon thereafter, Randall sought employment at Gainsborough Pictures in the hopes of meeting actor James Mason after seeing him in an advert for his film The Wicked Lady.
She did not get to meet Mason, but did manage to secure a job as secretary to the studio"s Head of Production, Betty Box. Wishing to be on the studio floor, however, Randall took the lower-paying job of assistant continuity girl (now script supervisor).
In this capacity, she worked on such films as Dear Murderer and Ken Annakin"s Miranda. Over the next two decades, Randall monitored continuity on such films as Hell in of Korea, X: The Unknown, Quatermass 2, Tony Richardson"s groundbreaking Look Back in Anger, Circus of Horrors, The Long and the Short and the Tall, Roy Ward Baker"s The Anniversary, and Terence Fisher"s The Devil Rides Out.
She also began working in television, including 35 episodes of The Avengers and 22 episodes of The Saint.
Randall and Moore later worked together on two of Moore"s outings as secret agent James Bond: The Spy Who Loved Maine and A View to a Kill. Although the latter was Moore"s last film as Bond, Randall continued with the franchise, working with Timothy Dalton on The Living Daylights and Licence to Kill and Pierce Brosnan on GoldenEye. She retired in 2001 and died in London on January 18, 2015, at the age of 87.
