A Christmas Carol Episode 2 Scrooge meets the spirit of Christmas past.
Let's continue the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, the selfish man who didn't like Christmas.
Last time,
the ghost of his dead partner Marley told Scrooge he would be visited by three spirits.
They would give him a chance of escaping Marley's fate.
Scrooge was in bed when the curtains were opened and he saw a face.
I'm the ghost of Christmas past.
Your past.
Come with me.
The spirit took Scrooge through a wall and suddenly they found themselves on an open country road.
The city had disappeared.
Scrooge was very excited.
Good heavens!
I grew up in this place.
That's the river and, oh, and I used to climb that tree.
He remembered everybody's names.
He could see them.
But they couldn't see him or the spirit.
