"Now, what I want is Facts. Teach these boys and girls nothing but Facts. Facts alone are wanted in life."

Charles Dickens' novel - subtitled 'For These Times' - is a vivid story for our own age - a short, sharp satire of target-driven education, business, and the denial of the imagination. Headmaster Thomas Gradgrind has developed a rigid, facts-driven curriculum for his school. And at home, he raises his two children, Tom and Louisa, within a similar system of utilitarian metrics. But the human spirit has an inherent thirst for wonder and Louisa struggles inside the constraints of her education.

Arthur Clennam returns to England after 20 years in China. He brings with him a watch, with ‘Do Not Forget' worked in beads on the casing.

Will his mother reveal the mystery behind the inscription? Does it relate to some wrong that has to be righted? And does the implacable Mrs Clennam know that the young seamstress who works for her is the daughter of William Dorrit, inmate of the Marshalsea debtors prison for over 20 years ?

Dickens's 11th novel satirises the institutions of government and society, in particular the Circumlocution Office, a department run purely for the benefit of its incompetent officials, and the prisons where debtors were incarcerated, unable to work, until they had repaid their debts.

Dickens writes from personal experience as his father spent time in the Marshalsea.

Arthur Clennam has given up his place in the family firm and secured himself a role as partner in Dan Doyce's engineering venture, a scheme funded by financier and ‘man of the age' Mr Merdle.

Meanwhile Arthur is still trying to solve the riddle of the inscription on his father's watch case - ‘Do Not Forget' - and feels that this must be linked in some way to William Dorrit, imprisoned in the Marshalsea for debts, and his daughter Amy.

Our Mutual Friend is as relevant now as it was 160 years ago, when it was written. Charles Dickens's epic novel is all about

“ - money, money, money, and what money can make of life!” Bella Wilfer

Born and bred Londoner Dan Rebellato, award-winning audio dramatist, brings this huge, vivid novel to life for the 21st century, with a dynamic, ensemble cast, including Bukky Bakray (BAFTA winner for Rocks), Henry Goodman (multi Olivier Award winner and nominee), Mat Fraser (Kaos) and Sule Rimi (The Day of the Jackal 2024).

The third and final adaptation for the BBC Radio 4 Dickensian season, Our Mutual Friend is a coruscating picture of then-contemporary London with striking affinities to now - a world of huge inequalities and cruelties, where ignorance is held up as knowledge, vast wealth is built literally on dust and money is made fishing corpses from the Thames. It's a world of fraud, deception, rapacity, dishonesty and cynicism - but it's also a book that battles through all of that to affirm honesty, generosity, and love, a novel of great joy.

This comes from Dickens's acute observation of the absurdities of life and his usual cast of intriguing characters - the wealthy illiterate Mr Boffin, the scheming fantasist Silas Wegg, the pompous philistine Mr Podsnap, the stylish fraudsters Sophronia and Alfred Lammle, the dandyish shark Fascination Fledgeby. And it's a book with heart - the stories of petulant but vulnerable Bella Wilfer, traumatised and gullible Georgiana Podsnap, and the resourceful survivor Lizzie Hexam are all powerful journeys of survival.

Throughout it flows the Thames, filthy and powerful, bobbing with boats and bodies, on and in which key scenes unfold, mixing class and culture to panoramic effect.

Episode 1: The Mouth of the River

Narrator and lawyer Mortimer Lightwood, introduces us to the highs and lows of London life, from the murky Thames, where Gaffer and his daughter Lizzie Hexam scrape a living dredging its dark waters, to the glittering well-heeled dining rooms and salons of the Podsnaps and Veneerings, and the squeezed middle of the Wilfers.

Into this heady brew comes the mystery of the Man from Somewhere, aka John Harmon, heir to a vast fortune – but only if he marries a woman he has never met, sulky Bella Wilfer. When Harmon goes missing, presumed dead, the mystery thickens, as romance, friendship, deceit and greed swirl through the city.

Episode 2: The Bend of the River

After the death of her father, Lizzie finds herself in receipt of unwanted attentions of Bradley Headstone, so seeks shelter with kindly Mr Riah; young Georgiana Podsnap unexpectedly finds romance with the ironically named Fascination Fledgeby, thanks to the Lammles, opportunistic social climbers, whose secret debts grow ever more pressing. Lightwood and Wrayburn continue their pursuit of the mysterious Julius Handford, now suspected of the murders of both John Harmon and Gaffer Hexam. The Boffins' new-found wealth brings them short-lived happiness when they adopt young Sloppy, so they invite Bella Wilfer into their home. She enjoys her improved material circumstances, and even begins to grudgingly appreciate the company of John Rokesmith.
