"Dickens talk was excellent" A review of Barrow Boy & Banker by Len Dyer - Tuesday 23rd of June 2009 My partner and I went to one of the Charles Dickens talks they do on Mondays, and we thought it was fab. The pub served good, old fashioned ale, and we enjoyed all we heard about what life was like in London in the last century, and just how important Charles Dickens was.

Preview: A Dickens Of A Pub Quiz.  Yes, it's a quiz by Charles Dickens, hosted by Charles Dickens...at the Dickens Inn. In short, this is a quiz that is so Dickensian it might very well be thrown into the Fleet Prison uttering a mellifluous stream of unnecessary adjectives for pick-pocketing a destitute road sweeper called Mr Bumblesnook. But before that happens, settle down on 1 September to enjoy the 'Twist with Dickens' quiz at the Charles Dickens pub in St Katherine's Docks. Teams should consist of four or fewer people and we're promised 'Questions about London today and yesterday'. There are two opportunities to join in, at 6pm and 8pm, with entry just £3 each. The evening will be hosted by Mr Christopher West, almost certainly one of the top 1000 Charles Dickens impersonators in the world. In fact, he's so good that we've cornered him into hosting the Londonist quiz on 1 October. But that is a tale for another day... user-pic By M@ in Arts & Events on August 28, 1:00 PM 1 Comment 19 Likes Tags: * charles dickens * christopher west * dickens inn * pub quiz * quiz * st katherine's dock.

I am an American visiting London and saw Chris West doing his talk introducing Charles Dickens and life on Monday. I couldnt believe it could have been so interesting and I learn so much in a fascinating and enjoyable way. I then had a beer and pie and am now looking forward to his next show at the same place called the Twist with Dickens Quiz. Do join me everyone. Unlike his more serious talk he told me the quiz would be just fun gentle questions about London and its history.

We've just come home from Charles Dickens London's Twist with Dickens Quiz.- We're still humming about the amount we learned from the fun questions and chuckling at Charles's wit and vibrancy- there is no stopping this guy- he just gushes humour and knowledge- most entertaining and the best evening we've had for years.
