Little Dorrit

Theresa and I have really enjoyed watching the first two parts of the BBC/PBS Series, Little Dorrit, based on the lessor-known Dickens Novel.  Not only is it a thoroughly engrossing and addicting mystery that would appeal to fans of “Lost” or “The Da Vinci Code”  (dare I even mention these works in the same sentence as Dickens?), its commentary on debt and poverty are particularly relevant in today’s economy.  Especially with recent reports of modern-day debtor’s prisons.

Watch the two episodes you missed here, and catch the upcoming three parts on PBS (Sundays at 9:00 here).
