Welcome to the adventures of Jedrington Secret-Past, upstanding family man and owner of The Old Shop Of Stuff, where he sells a plethora of miscellaneous odd things. But with every good-hearted hero, there must come a villain. Enter Malifax Skulkingworm - a lawyer with a heart of flint, an unusual evil hat and a decidedly sinister plan to ruin Jedrington and incarcerate his family. But this is no ordinary Dickensian tale. The Bleak Old Shop of Stuff is an entertaining romp through a unique story of hidden wills, brave street urchins, mysterious artefacts and superb comedy characters.

Comedy at its very best.
I bought this DVD after only seeing the cover and who is appearing in it.My instincts were well rewarded. A superb performance from some of the most talented of our comedy actors.And so well written!This is a very well worth buy.

Worth a try.
With such a good cast I thought this would have been better. Yes, there are some really funny bits.

Good British comedy but not great British comedy.
Enjoyable but not especially inspired. Good British comedy but not great British comedy.

What The Dickens!
Amusing Dickens spoof, for those who like the mild comedy of Mitchell and Webb.

Not at all outstanding except as to its oddity
Umm - why did they make this? Very odd, despite some brave attempts at acting the parts as well as possible.

Bit boring
I thought this would be a lot funnier - could be my sense of humour!

A good parody of Charles Dickens
This is a very cleverly written parody of Charles Dickens.Everyone in it, including the Child Actors are very good.It's a shame that the were only three parts to the story.The Christmas Episode is very funny and I recommend it.
