An Already Bad Life Made Worse but Sort of on Purpose
Mark Evans' Dickensian spoof in which Pip chases the dragon in the exotic East (End). With Richard Johnson. From September 2008.
The comic Victorian epic sees Pip reach his lowest ebb in the worst place in the world, the East End of London in the first half of the 19th century.
Full of self-loathing Pip drinks some very strong gin, finds he is really quite keen on opium, and falls in with a gang of thieving boys. But is their leader, Mr Abraham Bagel, a Roman Catholic ne'er-do-well, all he seems?
Mark Evans's epic comedy in the style of Charles Dickens.
Volume Two, Chapter the Fifth: An Already Bad Life Made Worse But Sort Of On Purpose.
