An epic feast of characters and storylines, Bleak House is Dickens' passionate indictment of the convoluted legal system that is as searingly relevant today as it was in the mid-19th century. The court of Chancery becomes the center of a tangle of relationships at all levels of society and a metaphor for the decay and corruption at the heart of Victorian England. Starring Gillian Anderson, Charles Dance, Alun Armstrong, Ian Richardson, Nathaniel Parker, Richard Griffiths, Phil Davis, Joanna David and Carey Mulligan.</description><language>en</language><docs>http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification</docs><webMaster>webmaster@blinkx.com (blinkx webmaster)</webMaster><pubDate>Tue, 24 Nov 2009 10:47:35 +0000</pubDate><lastBuildDate>Tue, 24 Nov 2009 10:47:35 +0000</lastBuildDate><image><url>http://tv.blinkx.comhttp://cdn.blinkx.com/store/images/video/b/12/TVShows/1c028a92cecdb23237ddde02cbe89e07.jpg</url><title>Watch Full Episodes of Bleak House Online</title><link>http://tv.blinkx.com/show/bleak-house/xBvE6ItnxUJ3ZY9Zojp8KQ</link></image><item><title>Episode 1</title><link>http://tv.blinkx.com/show/bleak-house/c2wfsKF_ayK9ffPwnO6SbrXSRGM#s1e1</link><description>on her own doorstep.
