~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
David Copperfield is the story of a boy growing to maturity in the affairs of the world and of the heart, surrounded by some of Dickens' most memorable characters: David's eccentric great-aunt, Miss Betsey Trotwood; the ever-optimistic Mr Micawber; jolly Peggotty and her willing husband Barkis; the charming Steerforth; the ever so 'umble Uriah Heep; and the foolishly innocent Dora.
But will David finally find happiness with the faithful Agnes Wickfield, whom he has known since childhood? And is her own future secure, threatened as it is by Uriah Heep, her father's clerk?

This is a WONDERFUL radio drama. I have it on tape and listen to it occasionally and laugh and cry. So well done. Thanks for uploading here for everyone to enjoy!
Many thanks for your kind sharing of this valuable resources, I listened this series first time from BBC Radio website in 2005 and I did a recording at that time but with low quality (32Kb only, but at that time it was very good quality already). I listened the story about David many times when I was staying alone, walking alone, and I am familiar with every sound in this series. However I am expecting BBC Radio to broadcast this series again and then I have chance to record with high quality, unfortunately BBC never broadcast it again (maybe I missed it while in broadcasting). Thank you very much for this high quality recording!
