Beautifully designed by Ralph Brinton and directed with complete finesse by Brian Desmond Hurst, this is not to be missed… RADIO TIMES

Ebenezer Scrooge (Seymour Hicks) is a curmudgeonly businessman who hates the Christmas season because it interferes with making money. His meek employee, Bob Cratchit (Donald Calthrop), dutifully serves Scrooge despite his mistreatment because Bob needs to provide for his family. On the night of Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by a number of visions, including the Spirit of Christmas Present (Oscar Asche), which shows him things he cannot
normally see, changing the miser’s attitude forever.
