Charles Dickens is renowned the world over for his writing, With over a dozen novels and twenty or so short stories to his name including the classics Great Expectations, A Christmas Carol and Oliver Twist surely there cannot be many people who do not instantly recognise his name?
In this clip from the sitcom Cheers, Frasier Crane is waxing lyrical about his favourite English author mush to the amusement of his fellow bar sitters and is in classic Frasier style needled into reading his favourite Dickens book aloud. It’s fair to say that his audience are not as enamoured by the writing style and so we get to enjoy a brand new version of A Tale of Two Cities done Frasier style. Purists cover your ears now, this may hurt.
