    I do like the Patrick Stewart one.
    It has enough Victorian atmosphere to suit me nicely.

    Mmm - Scrooged (Bill Murry), the Americans just had to go and take a classic Victorian set tale and absolutely screw it up, leaves a bad taste in my mouth - and just as bad was 2010's version set in modern London, starring Ross Kemp as a loan shark, very bad indeed. Yep, give me Alistair Sim's any day (or Jean-Luc Picard, er sorry, Patrick Stewart's)

    What!!!!
    When he gives up his own honeymoon money to save the loan co?
    When he makes the druggist cry when he was a little boy?
    When he screams at his uncle cos he doesn't want to go to jail?
    When he squeezes his kid when he gets back home cos he's brickin it?
    That film has me welling up every time and I'm a real macho man. You must be a puff!!! Tsk!
    :)

    I do agree it is a bit on the long side but it epitomises how no man is an island.
