About this product

Product Information

From the fog and squalor of Victorian London to the idyllic tranquillity of rural England, Dickens' tale of tragedy, intrigue and love, and stinging satire on the English legal system, is faithfully recreated in this BBC drama series. The story closely follows the characters involved in the infamous court case of Jarndyce versus Jarndyce that relies heavily on the production of an up-to-date will in order to settle the inheritance. Three young people are taken in by the generous guardian John Jarndyce to be cared for at Bleak House while they await the outcome of the court case. Meanwhile a ruthless lawyer is determined to find out the truth surrounding the Lady Dedlock's mysterious past and after deep investigation he makes a discovery that changes all their lives.

  • Superbly acted

    I remember seeing just a couple of episodes of this version of Bleak House and really like it. I always thought I would get the DVD sometime. I am so pleased I did I love the leading actors in this version too.

  • great for Dickens fans with hours of entertainment

    This is a great way to learn about life when poverty really meant poverty and the rich had no idea how the proletariat lived nor did they care. we are so fortunate today. no one should ever complain. this brought it to life and as usual Dickens has you hate some of the characters immediately whilst loving others. A great buy.... thoroughly recommend it. Good value.
