Over the years, here in ever so much better modern US, I have had many jobs which either did not give Christmas off or gave Christmas off with no pay (mostly because they were closing for Christmas). I would tell my coworkers, "Even Scrooge gave Bob Cratchit Christmas Day off with pay." It was quite the damning indictment of the stinginess of our employers if I do say so myself.
One of my favorites. I watch Patrick Stewart's version on Christmas Day every year. I do have to admit that the book is sitting on my "to be read" shelf, though. Something to think about in the story is the meaning of 'humbug'. Nowadays we often think of it being a synonym for nonsense, but it was actually a word to describe deception. Scrooge had come to genuinely believe that everyone was out for themselves and he saw people being terrible to each other all year long and, when they were kind to others during Christmas time, they were deceiving themselves that they were actually good and kind people. But the change wrought in Scrooge by the Ghosts' visit is that he actually became a good and kind man and, even though many people laughed at the change in him, he little heeded them. His own heart laughed and that was quite enough for him.
Yes you are. It’s sadly far too rare to hear a true ghost story, or even true ghost story adjacent, or even one he heard from another person, from him, ever.
you have the gift of storytelling, Kevin. You deserve a history program on TV: you’re much better at presenting than Tony Robinso and are more qualified than he was when he started presenting!, it’s great that you included scenes in the Christmas Present part that are always ignored by adaptations yet go a long way to help show Scrooge was oblivious about what others everywhere feel and act regarding Christmas
Gosh, thank you so much for the SUPER, it's very kind of you. I'm glad you enjoyed the video and look forward to bringing more history to RUclips next year. Merry Christmas.
As told by .........'The BEST Storyteller'.......Kevin Hicks. Lucky for Charles Dickens almost 180 years later your here to remind us of this magnificent Tale.
ITM Just lovely. Story telling is not an easy talent. The sound effects were an added bonus. Listening to the story was more emotional than any of the movies. Thank you .
A Christmas Carol is the best ghost story ever told. My favorite film telling ever, is the George C. Scott version. George was made for the Ebenezer Scrooge role. Great work, Kev!
@@DetroitMicroSound I was thinking of the little matchmaker for Christmas. I also love the story of Oliver Twist but that would have to be in segments. Also the life of Charles Dickens I'd find fascinating to do. 👍🏻
When I was a child growing up , my mother would read A Christmas Carol to my siblings and I every Christmas. I loved that story and I still do. I am a great an of Dickens. Thanks to my mum
I LOVE the 1951 movie with Alistair Sim.... Being filmed in black and white, it just makes the mood all the more grim...... But SUCH an uplifting story! LOVE Dickens.... working on "the Pickwick Papers", now.
Kevin, that was a magnificent telling of one of the best stories ever written. I thoroughly enjoyed every moment. Thank you! Merry Christmas, and God bless us, every one!
Excellent story telling, It's just not Christmas until I've read, heard or watched a Christmas Carol. My favorite is Alistair Sim from 1951. Merry Christmas everyone.
wonderful narration thank you so much. i loved it. Scrooge always makes me tear up its such a wonderful tale that turns greed, loneliness and selfishness into joyful hope. What a gift to the world Charles Dickens was. Happy Christmas everyone
Thank you, Kevin. That was the best telling of The Carol I’ve heard, and it remains a message of hope for us all that should be heeded. Come in, man, and know me…
I'll never forget watching Scrooge with my family on Christmas Eve. when we were small & it was late at night. the ending where the last spirit is revealed as death - mum & dad covered our eyes so we wouldn't see the skull. same thing happened at the cinema back in the 70's when the trailer for Alien came on & mum covered my eyes. Lost my 🌹mum🌹 to heart failure in February & it's reassuring to remember that far back into my childhood
Exactly what I needed today to get into the Christmas spirit. Thank you so much for all that you do, these videos are indeed a way you make humanity your business 😊
I'm a year late, but can't wait!! Kevin is one of the great story tellers for sure, always sets the scene and the mood perfectly and you can feel the passion of what he does
Thank you so much for this Kevin. It's so special to me as my grandad used to read it my sister and myself every Christmas eve as we were growing up. As I'm a Yorkshire lass, we're not far ftom York, which has some beautiful Dickensian style streets and building, stunning at Christmas time. Seasons greetings to you 🎄☃️🥂 x We visit York ofter
You fill out that scrooge outfit a little too good! Cheers Kevin from Nevada, USA and a Merry Christmas hope it was just swell for everyone seeing this!!😁😁
I read most of Dickens books, A Christmas Carol 5 or 6 times, for me it's his masterpiece, always fresh, and always puts me in the Christmas spirit. Great post keep up the good work and merry Christmas.
Thank you for such a wonderful and blessed show. Besides Luke chapter 2, that’s my favorite Christmas story. I have read it a couple of times. My wife and I watch A Christmas Carol, 1951, with Alastair Sims every year. Have a Merry Christmas.
Love the fancy dress, must say this video is by far a favorite above other favorites. I enjoy Charles Dickens too, what I find a bit strange about him is this, he didn't treat his own family very kindly. Thanks Kevin, Christmas is what Christmas is, but never a humbug. Merry Christmas again and Happy New Year!
Thanks for watching. His is a fascinating story and as you say he didn't always treat his family as well as you might expect, there were problems. I might cover him in a video one day. Have a wonderful Christmas.
FANTASTIC! 👏👏👏 I really enjoyed this story so much, thank you! Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without a little Ebenezer Scrooge. And I wish you and your family a very merry Christmas and a very blessed and happy New year! ☃️ MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE ☃️🎅🎉🎄🎁🍾
An American here and this is definitely my favorite Christmas story without doubt. My ex-wife and I used to read the book as well as watch all the different versions each winter.
Found your channel the other day thru my recommend, and it was your secrets of a medieval castle video. Watched the whole thing. After that I’ve been binge watching all your other videos and this one was just another amazing addition!! Thanks so much Kevin!! You’re an amazing storyteller/historian which makes for an awesome combination!
@@thehistorysquad :) Thanks again for the amazing videos! I just finished your video on the pirate Albert Hicks and it was very engaging. And to think you were possibly related is crazy!
Well Done! Bravo! I have seen pretty much every Christmas Carol shown on TV. But listening to your rendition brought tears to my eyes. Thank you.....thank you so very much.
I've been called a Scrooge by many people, I don't enjoy much of the revelry that a modern Christmas brings because I think it brings a lot of stress and heartache, too. I think it's kept me from enjoying the smaller, more integral parts of the season. I haven't heard the story or read along with the actual book before. Your quotations were almost bang-on to the original publication. Thank you for this.
Made my Day , Merry Xmas ! The 'Scrooge' Story seems especially poignant this Year in England. We all need to take a bit extra Care of each Other this Winter. What is always interesting (and very encouraging) is little brings Out the best in Folk anywhere than 'Sharing the load' and it's those most used to lifting who often seem most willing to! Good Will is a very Powerful Force.
As a chill North wind brings Christmas down over the vast wheatland prairies, it also carries the gathering sound of fifteen thousand moose, all gently clapping their antlers in appreciation of a great story, very well told. Merry Xmas Kevin : )
"You would think a coffin nail would be the deadest piece of ironmongrery, but I am a great respecter of tradtion..." Thanks for doing this Kevin. This is one of the best books in all the western canon. And Merry Christmas.
Thank you Mr. Hicks. This is one of my favorite all-time stories of which I watch almost any version of because it’s such a wonderful story of redemption. But my favorite version is Alistair Sims playing Scrooge in the 1951 movie.
Yo, you have told me the best version of the story I’ve ever heard. Never did I realize that Scrooge lives in Jacob Marley‘s house. And I never understood the thing with the chains you’re the first person to bring that to my understanding so it makes much more sense as to why he does such a roundabout and becomes so giving in the end? How did I always missed that part? I love how you told the story I’m gonna show my son this next Christmas. Wow this is probably one of my favorites.🎉🎉❤
Merry Christmas, sir, and what a wonderful rendition of this classic. I highly enjoyed it and your Scrooge cosplay was spot on. Although now that I think of it you'd also make a great Jack the Ripper episode in the same attire. Cheers!
I helped a church do a play of the Christmas carol me my fiance and kids. We met some nice people they were short handed so we helped it turned out amazing.
Loved your telling of my favourite Dickens story. My partner (God rest her soul) and I used to watch the Scrooge films every Christmas. But telling of the story was very moving. Thank you.
Absolutely wonderful! One of my favorite Christmas stories and you did it so well. Thank you! I hope you and your loved ones have a marvelous holiday season and a peaceful and safe new year. I think I’ll go dig out last year’s Queen’s speech.
@@thehistorysquad it’s hard for me to watch the (now) Kings Guards. It just doesn’t feel right. I admired the Queen more than anyone else alive. Her mother and father were admirable people and, I think, made a great contribution to English perseverance during the war.
Kevin, thank you for a wonderful story. Your version brought tears to my old eyes and is better than any movie version of this wonderful story that I have seen. Have a Merry Christmas!
I used to read the unabridged version of this classic literature to my children in installments at Christmas. I feel certain that had Dickens not been an author he would have been an actor.
One of my favorite stories, Kevin. Great job. One of my favorite scenes in all of literature is when Marley's Ghost visits Scrooge. Perfectly written by Mr. Dickens! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas and God bless us every one and happy Christmas to the history squad and to you Kevin thank you for the wonderful reading of the story 😊
You are absolutely brilliant. I've heard that story many times and I feel like I've never heard and seen it so well spoken and portrayed. Thank you very much.
Thanks for the most enjoyable 45 minutes. That was by far the best telling of A Christmas Carol. Have a wonderful Christmas, to all. Cheers from Texas.
Alastair Sim as Scrooge, 1951, nailed it.
Over the years, here in ever so much better modern US, I have had many jobs which either did not give Christmas off or gave Christmas off with no pay (mostly because they were closing for Christmas). I would tell my coworkers, "Even Scrooge gave Bob Cratchit Christmas Day off with pay." It was quite the damning indictment of the stinginess of our employers if I do say so myself.
Yes, indeed....it's just one day 👍🏻
One of my favorites. I watch Patrick Stewart's version on Christmas Day every year. I do have to admit that the book is sitting on my "to be read" shelf, though.

You're never too far from a good ghost story with Kevin 😄👻
@@AllenCrawford3 Agreed 💯

Gosh, that's so kind of you thanks!!
I’ve read it, listened to it on audiobook, and watched every version I could find. It’s a Christmas staple for me.
Which would you say is the best video version?
@@heybooitsme1831 it’s easier to say which I don’t like. I don’t like the animated one with Jim Carey voicing the characters.
@@serendipityforge333 Yes. That version is an abomination.
Another good Christmas reading staple is, "Silent Night" which is about the WWI Christmas truce.
I read it every year and the story never, ever gets old. Thank you, Kevin, for this adaptation.
ITM
Just lovely. Story telling is not an easy talent. The sound effects were an added bonus. Listening to the story was more emotional than any of the movies. Thank you .
My pleasure, I love this story.
A Christmas Carol is the best ghost story ever told. My favorite film telling ever, is the George C. Scott version. George was made for the Ebenezer Scrooge role.
Great work, Kev!
Thanks!
I have most of the movies on DVD. My favourite is the Alistair Sim version but the George C Scott version is great too!!
I enjoy the Scott and Patrick Steward versions equally.
Kev, how about another famous story about the era?@@thehistorysquad
@@DetroitMicroSound I was thinking of the little matchmaker for Christmas. I also love the story of Oliver Twist but that would have to be in segments. Also the life of Charles Dickens I'd find fascinating to do. 👍🏻

One of my favorite movies of the Christmas carol is the Patrick Stewart Christmas carol
One of my favorite parts is with they go to Walsh and and we get to hear Walsh sing
Love this story. Always watch the 1938 A Christmas Carol on Christmas Eve its a wonderful version. Thanks again for another video always love them!

Gosh, thanks!
Loved this!! Thank you.
Classic story. Super storytelling. Great costume and setting. Relaxing and engaging 💜
Glad you enjoyed it!
We have Dickens to blame for the idea of snow at Christmas. He was born and grew up during the Little Ice Age where we had snow at Christmas.
This was absolutely lovely and perfectly fitting for the snowstorm raging outside my window. Merry Christmas! 😁
Thank you! You too!
