Blackadder's Christmas Carol
Richard Boden, 1988

Ebenezer Blackadder, the Victorian proprietor of a moustache shop, is the nicest man in England. He is everything that Ebenezer Scrooge was by the end of the original story: generous and kind to everybody, and sensitive to the misery of others. As a result, people take advantage of his kindness – Mrs. Scratchit and an orphan take all his money, and a beadle takes his food.
