About this listen
Nicholas begins his job as assistant schoolmaster at Dotheboys Hall and sees the poor conditions of the pupils and their education. He tries to remain hopeful but becomes increasingly aware that his uncle Ralph has deceived him and begins to worry about his family. Nicholas befriends a bedraggled, disabled boy called Smike who was left with Squeers as a child. Meanwhile, Mrs Squeers and her daughter Fanny discuss Nicholas, and Fanny after meeting him, begins to grow affectionate towards him.
Nicholas joins Fanny, her friend Tilda and John, Tilda’s fiancé, for a game of cards and unwittingly offends everyone around the table. Back in London, Ralph finds Kate a position at the dress shop of the extravagant Mr and Madame Mantalini and agrees to provide Kate and Mrs Nickleby with new lodgings.
