The Charles Dickens Collection
Across the years BBC Television has consistently looked to the works of Charles Dickens for intelligent, colourful, accessible and popular drama. Dickens' novels are ideal for television adaptation, his writing has a great theatrical and visual quality; his stories (written as episodes with their own cliff-hangers) are full of humour, drama and emotion and his characters are three-dimensional and exude personality. The adaptations in this set feature some of the nation's greatest actors including Michael Hordern, Maggie Smith, Bob Hoskins, Nicholas Lyndhurst, Eric Porter, Miriam Margolyes, John Le Mesurier, John Mills, Cherie Lunghi, Ian McKellen, Charlotte Rampling, Paul Scofield and many more. The series were all broadcast to great critical and popular acclaim and have since taken their place as a valued part of our television heritage.
