This was a slow burner to start off that was going to be switched over to something else but gave it a chance and glad I did. This was actually enjoyable to watch, Dan Stevens plays the novelist Dickens who faces hardship and creates the character Scrooge, played by Christopher Plummer. It has a mixture of fact and fantasy that's worth a watch.
Plan to watch this on Christmas Eve.

Along with The Bishop's Wife (again), the Mr. Bean Christmas episode, Martin's Close and The Canterville Ghost (1974)
