@Thornburywitch I was a bit slack there, referring to The Artful Dodger with Tim Minchin, haven’t read the Pratchett one but imagine he’d do the dialogue quite well, right up his alley.
Yes indeedy. Especially the bits about 5,000 years of food safety regulations … which is a nice contrast to Dickens’ rampant anti-semitism. Different story, same setting, and a lot more slapstick. Classic late phase Pratchett.
