5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, if a little dated, 15 Jan 2008
By Mr. L. N. Taylor "lntaylor3" (Essex, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
I remember this 13 part series being shown in the late 70s, and being a Dicken's fan, have wanted to own it for years. Although the production is a little dated compared to the modern period pieces, both the script and cast are absolutely superb. Special mention for Roy Dotrice who is simply marvellous as both Charles' father John Dickens, and as the mature Charles Dickens. Also worthy of much praise is Gene Foad as the younger Charles Dickens. I can't recommend this series enough, especially at the price being asked by Amazon. PS. Happy 85th birthday to Roy this May 26th - long may he continue!

4.0 out of 5 stars Return to Dickens of London, 20 Feb 2009
By Mr. A. J. Harrison - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having watched this drama when it first came out, and I remember enjoying it then, I was interested in seeing it again. I have been pleased to find that it was very different from a lot of the dramas that we see today, not because it is old but because it has some substance. I am glad that I have had the opportunity to enjoy this all over again.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very entertaining, 30 Jan 2009
Well cast series on the life and career of Dickens.

Episode one is a bit shaky so it was a while before I tried another one but it quickly got me hooked. Dotrice is excellent in the dual roles of Charles Dickens (middle age onwards) and John Dickens (his Micawberish) father.

Gene Foad is also very good as the twenty something Charles Dickens. Pity he seems to have done so little TV work since that time.
