Dickens of London is a 1976 television miniseries from Yorkshire Television based on the life of English novelist Charles Dickens. Both Dickens and his father John were played by British actor Roy Dotrice.[1][2] The series was written by Wolf Mankowitz[3] and Marc Miller.[4] In the United States, the series was shown in 1977.
The series of 13 episodes of 60 minutes was directed by Michael Ferguson (6 episodes)[5] and Marc Miller (7 episodes),[4] who was also the series' producer, with David Cunliffe as executive producer.[6] Mankowitz's book, Dickens of London, published by Weidenfeld and Nicolson in 1976, was based on the detailed research he made while writing the screenplay.
