The 1984 “A Christmas Carol” was a television movie adaptation of Charles Dickens’ 1843 novella. Directed by Clive Donner, staring George C. Scott as Ebenezer Scrooge. Filmed on location in Shrewsbury, England. Originally aired on December 17, 1984. Scott was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series or a Special for his portrayal.

The film follows the fortunes of Ebeneezer Scrooge, who is preoccupied with money. Jacob Marley, his former business partner, visits him as a ghost and tells him he is to be visited by The Ghosts of Christmas Past, Christmas Present, and Christmas Yet to Come. He ultimately recognises his miserly ways and the mistreatment he has meted out to his poor employee Bob Cratchit. A Christmas classic if ever there was one.
