In the story Charles Dickens might have written after drinking too much gin, follow the adventures of plucky hero Pip Bin, his sisters Pippa and Poppy and best friend Harry Biscuit, as they attempt to escape the calculating clutches of the dastardly Mr Gently Benevolent and his evil allies, the villainous Hardthrasher siblings!
Based on the hilarious BBC Radio 4 series, Bleak Expectations is a wonderfully silly Victorian romp full of witty word-play, absurd situations and knockabout comedy.
