Scrooge/The Pickwick Papers (In Colour)

Colourised versions of two classic adaptations of Charles Dickens' novels.

In 'Scrooge' (1951), based on 'A Christmas Carol', miserly Ebenezer Scrooge (Alastair Sim) is so mean-spirited that he even begrudges having to give his clerk, Bob Cratchit (Mervyn Johns), the day off for Christmas.

Alone at home on Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by the ghost of his late partner, Jacob Marley (Michael Hordern), who warns him that he will be visited by three spirits in an attempt to make him change his hard-hearted ways. 'The Pickwick Papers' (1952) follows a group of bachelors as they travel around Victorian England.

Naming themselves the Pickwick Club after their founder, Samuel Pickwick (James Hayter), the gents' journey brings them many surprises and a host of revelations about themselves and the current state of the world.

Along the way they encounter a wealth of comic characters and are swindled, sued and thrown into a debtors' prison.
