Carol singing in the streets ... Merry Christmas ? Bah, humbug .... Our Narrator ... I didn't get where I am today by celebrating Christmas ... I'll still wish you well, Uncle ... Partying's the thing at this time of year ... Merry Christmas nephew ? Bah, humbug .... Will you contribute something for the poor ? Bah, humbug .... Don't be late in on Boxing Day ... Marley's ghost issues some dreadful warnings ... It was all a bad dream ... Is this a spirit I see before me ? I'll show you how things might have been ... ... but first, a song ... There's a little boy who could have been comforted ... A lesson there for you ... Fezziwig stirs up a party ... A missed opportunity ... What might have been ... ... and how it turned out ... Time to meet .... ... another Spirit ... of Christmas Present ... ... who's more openly admonitory ... The Cratchit family ... ... see how loving they are ... ... see how they drink your health ... ... and for all your nephew's puzzlement over your meanness, you're not forgotten ... ... and jollity prevails ... These wasted children are Ignorance and Want, think on ... What menace am I facing now ? They're selling my belongings ... this is too horrible to behold ... There's half-a-crown for you if you fetch the butcher I pay what I owe to you and to him ... Mr Scrooge, you're so generous after all ... Uncle, you're a most welcome guest ... This is how I'm going to look after your family in future ... ... so let's celebrate ... God bless us, everyone Review of production in the Wrington Journal Review of production in the Wrington Journal
