Synopsis

Charles John Huffam Dickens - storyteller, journalist and philanthropist - was a man who knew what deprivation was and empathised with the people who suffered it, and if Dickens' quill was still seeing action then as a writer living in the Gads Hill front line in the Higham turf, with a keen eye for contemporary detail and a street name of Boz, he would have no alternative but to reflect life as it is on the streets today by writing classics like 'Minging Times', 'Dombey and Sprog', 'Our Mutual Bro', 'Da Tale of Two Turfs', and 'Well Good Expectations'. "Oi Mate, Gimme Some More!" brings a fresh take to all 16 of Dickens' novels but still remains true to the original texts; Oliver still asks for more grub, Wackford Squeers is still a sadist and after he gets visited by the three ghosts, Scrooge still gets the willies put up him.
