Sam Mendes has a wonderful voice for this spooky Charles Dickens tale; the dolby atmos sound is haunting and definitely enhances the listening. I think the story on its own probably would not have been a favourite but the experience of the surround sound, music and rail chimes were excellent additions to drum up that creepy atmosphere.
The star rating is for the story itself; the production by the sound team is top notch here.

I love this story and really wanted to like this version more, Sam Mendes is a great narrator but the sound effects really spoiled it for me they felt clunky and intrusive
