Sunday (20th ) at 4.55 pm.

London 1843, Charles Dickens is desperate to write a best seller.....We all know where this is going don't we? Stars: Dan Stevens, Christopher Plummer, Miriam Margoyles, and a host of other top notch actors.

It told an awful lot about his young life, which seemed to be haunting the grown up Charles.

Of course he was a total bar steward to Mrs Dickens so I shall have to rewatch the Sue Perkins programme about her for balance.

I hope it will be repeated.
