Comments

  • Bill & Bullseye
  • Daniel Quilp - The Old Curiosity Shop
  • Ebenezer Scrooge has always appealed to me!
  • 1. Uriah Heep
    2. Edwin Drood's uncle Jack
    3. Fagin
    4. Barnaby Rudge
    5. Miss Havisham
  • 5.Little Nell, heart warming character.
    4. Miss Havisham, very clever woman, intriguing too
    3. Oliver Twist, gotta love a rag to riches story.
    2. Daniel Quilp, probably the best villain in literature
    1. Nancy from Oliver Twist, her character is very symbolic, victim of domestic violence that stood up for what she believed, criminal with a heart, bad girl goes good, down and out with luck turns to the underworld etc etc.

    You can't beat A Christmas Carol for a feel good ending.
  • Joe Gargery is my favourite character.
    To find your Dickensian name you take one of your Great Grandparents first names and add to the name of your first primary school.

    That makes me William Alexander McLeod and gives me some dodgy relatives from this site....... ;-)
  • Bill Sykes prototype Millwall fan :-)
  • Tough - so many brilliant charcters:

    Gargery is a good call. A genuinely good man without being sacchrine like many of Dicken's other good guys

    Harold Skimpole always made me laugh

    Mr Micawber

    Sydney Carton

    Wackford Squeers, for teh name of nothing else
