Dickens World - 2007

Season 4, Episode 31,   Nov 11, 2019, 06:00 AM

It’s 2007, it’s Chatham in Kent and nestled in a gigantic aluminium box above a Nando's chicken shop is the most authentic recreation of Victorian England since The Muppet's Christmas Carol

In what Disney cockneys are already proclaiming is the 31st episode of the CB Wallop Podcast -Maory Pop-inns! join Phil Jerrod and Phil Lucas as they discuss Dickens World - the well meaning theme park that tried to bring the genius of Dickens to life using nothing but fifty out of work actors, an animatronic Mr Pickwick and log flume down a river of s**t. 

Should they have included the Ripper? Yes... absolutely they should. 

Trigger Warning: Nothing to worry your fragile snowflake hearts in this one - it’s just a failed Victorian theme park. Unless you’re scared of saucy Bill Sikes that is. 

Music by Steve Adam
Written and Researched by Phil Lucas
