Once again Uncle Eric shows his total lack of acting talent as he murders Charles Dickens' brilliant Christmas ghost story, A Christmas Carol!
Yes, Ericnezer Scrooge runs the meanest music shop in town – assisted by the unpaid Dave Crotchet and his housekeeper, Mrs Madge. One Christmas Eve, after a visit to the trendy Bar Humbug (geddit?), Ericnezer spends the night alone. Suddenly, he's awoken by the sound of ghostly moans and ... well, you know the rest. But, you've never heard the story quite like this!
A great script, deep moral issues, startling drama – Uncle Eric's Dickensian Christmas tale has none of these. But it's an great laugh, a fantastic night out, and there's a load of great '60s hits shoe-horned into the evening as well. As Eric says, "this is culture with a capital K". |
