My favourite serious version of the story. Patrick Stewart is a brilliant Scrooge and the rest of the actors are perfectly cast.

Not really my favorite version. Patrick Stewart playing bald Scrooge. Is like Captain Picard is in the story of A Christmas Carol in the hologram Enterprise program. It just needed Data as Bob Cratchit.
