Verdict: God bless them, every one!
Can it be a coincidence that so many theatres are doing A Christmas Carol this year? I think not.
I reckon it s the spirit of Christmases Past, rising up to banish our 2020 blues.
How apt, then, that the biggest Carol, live-streamed from London s Old Vic, features Andrew Lincoln Deputy Sheriff Rick Grimes from zombie apocalypse series The Walking Dead.
Rating:
Lincoln, who makes a very macho Ebenezer, must have been tempted to turn a pump-action shotgun on the ghosts who keep interrupting his sleep.
Happily, he submits to Dickens s seasonal message of peace and goodwill with a performance that would make a decent audition for King Lear.
