The always-optimistic Mr. Wilkins Micawber is a man fond of large words and never uses one when several will do. Set in Victorian England, this delightful miniseries, starring David Jason (The Darling Buds of May), is inspired by the character from Charles Dickens' David Copperfield.

In the years before his encounter with Copperfield, we meet Micawber and his ever-increasing family as he struggles to keep up appearances. Enduring threats from vicious moneylenders or forced visits to the pawnshop, the indomitable Micawber fully expects "something to turn up" to ease his situation.

Despite eternally empty pockets, disapproving in-laws, less-than-honest employers and his own astoundingly bad timing, Micawber will not be discouraged. He throws himself whole-heartedly into every opportunity that presents itself, whether stage-managing (badly) a theatrical melodrama or serving as a butler to eccentric aristocrats.

Filmed on location in the English countryside and featuring an array of colourful, Dickens-like characters, Micawber is an imaginative lark through the life of one of literature's most beloved creations.
