Charles Dickens: Bicentenary
- Question
- To ask Her Majesty’s Government what plans they have to celebrate the bicentenary of the birth of Charles Dickens.
- Answer
-
My Lords, Her Majesty’s Government are always delighted to fund and support different institutions and events celebrating the life and work of Charles Dickens, not only in this bicentenary year but at any time. This year includes special programmes with the BBC, the British Council and a number of our museums such as the V&A—there are so many that I dare not recite them all in these few minutes.
