Introduction
Dick Whittington arrives in London, where he’s heard that the streets are paved with gold. Whilst it might not be gold that he finds, he does make some new friends – in the guise of Lady Howard and her employees, and Bill the Bard and his company of merry actors – as well as enemies - in the shape of evil Olaf the Norse and his band of fierce and deadly pirates. Might he even find love with the beautiful Alice Esmerelda…?
