About this listen

Sir David Jason reads Charles Dickens' magical, much-loved Christmas story. Ebenezer Scrooge is a mean, unpleasant man who dislikes people generally and Christmas especially. But one Christmas Eve, he has a terrifying experience: He sees the ghost of his one-time business partner, Jacob Marley, who is bound in chains and doomed to wander the Earth because of the sins of his past life. Marley warns Scrooge that he is headed for the same dreadful fate: but there is one possible means of escape.

Soon, he will be visited by three more spirits: the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come. Can these phantoms persuade Scrooge to change his ways?

Abridged but well told.

Sir David Jason, of course, gives a brilliant performance. My one issue is that this is heavily edited. I feel as though whoever was in charge of the script neglected some of the very important parts Dickens was trying to convey, while leaving in some of the more trivial parts. Nevertheless, this was enjoyable to listen to due to a stirring performance. Merry Christmas!
