Publisher's Summary

First published in 1837, Charles Dickens’ Pickwick Papers, his tales of Mr. Pickwick and his Pickwick Club, were in fact set ten years earlier. Laurence Olivier stars as Sergeant Buzfuz, counsel for Mrs. Bardell in her action against Samuel Pickwick for Breach of Promise of Marriage. As so often in Dickens’ novels (and in life), confusion and misunderstanding lie at the root of the problem. Mr. Pickwick had only been trying to explain to Mrs. Bardell, his landlady at the ‘George and Vulture’, that he had decided to seek and manservant, not a wife!
