Thirteen years after Scrooge’s redemption, the Cratchit children are grown—and the family we remember gathered around the Christmas table is coming apart.
Once a humble clerk and devoted family man, Bob Cratchit is seduced into a world that would corrupt even the truest of hearts.
Bob’s daughter Belinda must choose between the man she loves and loyalty to her father.
Her older brother, Peter, has returned from the horrors of war. He watches over those he loves, even while battling demons of his own.
And then there’s Tim Cratchit.
Now a handsome young man, he’s fallen in with a bad lot. Ebenezer Scrooge saved his life when Tim was a child. Who will save him now?
Set against Christmas in Victorian London, Cratchit is the story of a family bound by love, yet haunted by secrets.
Thirteen Christmases ago, three Spirits came to save a man.
Now, they’ve returned. To save a family.
A Christmas Carol has been filmed and reimagined dozens of times. Yet, remarkably, no major film or television production has explored what became of Ebenezer Scrooge, Tiny Tim, Bob Cratchit and his family after that fateful Christmas night.
