This very different version of the Charles Dickens timeless story set in the mid-19th century follows the adventures of Magwitch, the escaped convict who forced the young Pip to hide and steal for him in the first part of the story. Then it settles to Magwitch's wonderings through Europe and his journey to Australia where it shows the means he used to become a wealthy gentleman and the reasons he decided to become Pip's benefactor.
