I just thought it was a really fresh take on that whole world.
Particularly in England, Dickens is placed on a pedestal.
Jonathan Pryce (Game of Thrones) plays his father, and Christopher Plummer portrays Scrooge.

Dickens whips himself into such a state that he conjures these characters, explains Stevens.
Scrooge arrives and haunts him and taunts him.
Its quite an interesting dynamic.
Sounds like fans of Dickens and Stevens should have great expectations.
