Armando Iannucci, an avid Dickens fan and the award-winning writer/director of The Thick Of It, In The Loop, Veep, and The Death Of Stalin, employs his comedic mastery and vivid characterisations to bring one of Dickens' most cherished characters to life. From birth to infancy, from adolescence to adulthood, the good-hearted David Copperfield is surrounded by kindness, wickedness, poverty, and wealth as he sets out to become a writer and meets an array of remarkable characters in Victorian England.
