Satirist and writer Armando Iannucci chooses novelist Charles Dickens.

Armando is a huge and unexpected fan of the author.

Were he alive today, he says, Dickens would be writing sitcoms.

Alan Partridge? Maybe not. But the man behind the Partridge phenomena will be championing the man behind Pickwick, Chuzzlewit and Uriah Heep.

Joining Armando and presenter Humphrey Carpenter, is the Dickens expert, Professor Andrew Sanders.

Producer: Miles Warde

First broadcast on 蜜芽传媒 Radio 4 in November 2003.
