Great Expectations is the thirteenth novel by Charles Dickens and his penultimate completed novel; a bildungsroman that depicts the personal growth and personal development of an orphan nicknamed Pip.
 It is Dickens's second novel, after "David Copperfield", to be fully narrated in the first person.
 The novel was first published as a serial in Dickens' weekly periodical "All the Year Round", from 1 December 1860 to August 1861.
 In October 1861, Chapman and Hall published the novel in three volumes.
Bleak Expectations is a BBC Radio 4 comedy series that premièred in August 2007.
 It is a pastiche of the works of Charles Dickens – such as "Bleak House" and "Great Expectations", from which it derives its name – as well as adventure/ science fiction and costume dramas set in the same period, and parodies several of their plot devices (such as cruel guardians, idyllic childhoods interrupted, lifelong friendships, earnest young people), whilst simultaneously tending toward a highly surreal humour along the lines of "The Goon Show".
 The series has also demonstrated a fondness for allusions to and parodies of the films of Alec Guinness, particularly the Edwardian satire "Kind Hearts and Coronets".

Great Expectations is a 1998 contemporary film adaptation of the Charles Dickens novel of the same name, co-written and directed by Alfonso Cuarón and starring Ethan Hawke, Gwyneth Paltrow, Hank Azaria, Robert De Niro, Anne Bancroft and Chris Cooper.
 It is known for having moved the setting of the original novel from 1812-1827 London to 1990s New York.
 (The book was first published in 1861.)
 The film is an abridged modernization of Dickens's novel, with the hero's name having also been changed from Pip to Finn, and the character Miss Havisham has been renamed Nora Dinsmoor.
 The film received mixed reviews.
Tavistock House was the London home of the noted British author Charles Dickens and his family from 1851 to 1860.
 At Tavistock House Dickens wrote "Bleak House", "Hard Times", "Little Dorrit" and "A Tale of Two Cities".
 He also put on amateur theatricals there which are described in John Forster's "Life of Charles Dickens".
 Later, it was the home of William and Georgina Weldon, whose lodger was the French composer Charles Gounod, who composed part of his opera "Polyeucte" at the house.
The Bleak Old Shop of Stuff is a four-part comedy series produced by BBC, which premiered on BBC Two on 19 December 2011.
 It is a parody of the works of Charles Dickens, drawing its title from "Bleak House" and "The Old Curiosity Shop".
 It is a television successor to "Bleak Expectations", a radio parody of Dickens which began in 2007, and with which it shares the writer Mark Evans, producer Gareth Edwards and actor Richard Johnson; while not a direct adaptation it shares the same style, atmosphere and sense of humour.
 It is directed by Ben Gosling Fuller, who also directed the show "That Mitchell and Webb Look".
Bleak House is the ninth novel by English author Charles Dickens, first published as a serial between March 1852 and September 1853.
 The novel has many characters and several sub-plots, and the story is told partly by the novel's heroine, Esther Summerson, and partly by an omniscient narrator.
 At the centre of "Bleak House" is a long-running legal case, "Jarndyce and Jarndyce", which came about because someone wrote several conflicting wills.
 Dickens uses this case to satirise the English judicial system.
 Though the legal profession criticised Dickens's satire as exaggerated, this novel helped support a judicial reform movement, which culminated in the enactment of legal reform in the 1870s.
"Pip" (also known as "Great Expectations") is the fourteenth episode in the fourth season of the American animated television series "South Park".
 The 62nd episode of the series overall, it first aired on Comedy Central in the United States on November 29, 2000.
 The episode is a parody and comedic retelling of Charles Dickens's 1861 novel "Great Expectations", and stars the "South Park" character Pip, who assumes the role of Pip, the protagonist of the novel, who is his namesake.
 "Pip" features no other regular characters from the show.
 The story is narrated in a live action parody of the anthology television series "Masterpiece Theatre", with the narrator played by Malcolm McDowell.
Bleak House is a 1920 British silent drama film directed by Maurice Elvey and starring Constance Collier, Berta Gellardi and Helen Haye.
 It is an adaptation of Charles Dickens' 1852 novel "Bleak House".
 It was one of a large number of silent film versions of Dickens' stories.
The Frozen Deep is an 1856 play, originally staged as an amateur theatrical, written by Wilkie Collins under the substantial guidance of Charles Dickens.
 Dickens's hand was so prominent – beside acting in the play for several performances, he added a preface, altered lines, and attended to most of the props and sets – that the principal edition of the play is entitled "Under the Management of Charles Dickens".
 John C. Eckel wrote: "As usual with a play which passed into rehearsal under Dickens' auspices it came out improved.
 This was the case with "The Frozen Deep".
 The changes were so numerous that the drama almost may be ascribed to Dickens".
 Dickens himself took the part of Richard Wardour and was stage-manager during its modest original staging in Dickens's home Tavistock House.
 The play, however, grew in influence through a series of outside performances, including one before Queen Victoria at the Royal Gallery of Illustration, and a three-performance run at the Manchester Free Trade Hall for the benefit of the Douglas Jerrold Fund to benefit the widow of Dickens's old friend, Douglas Jerrold.
 There, night after night, everyone – including, by some accounts, the carpenters and the stage-hands – was moved to tears by the play.
 It also brought Dickens together with Ellen Ternan, an actress he hired to play one of the parts, and for whom he would later leave his wife Catherine.
 The play remained unpublished until a private printing appeared sometime in 1866.
