Well it's not what I voted for, but the people have spoken. So, if you fancy some Dickens this Christmas but want a change from the Carol, get yourselves a copy of Great Expectations (and a pork pie).

I may have been involved in some questionable business in a barn, I've developed a keen eye for soap stains, and I've given birth to a star.

Yep, I've been tweeting as @GE__Molly for @GEReadalong for the last eight months. It's been great fun. #wristybusiness #goshMollywasgood

[Bethan Carney @BethanCarney]

We’re all coming out now, so I can say I’ve had the privilege of tweeting as @GE_MissHavisham as part of the @GEReadalong reading project .... 💔💔💔💔🔥🔥 🔥 ... Thanks to all for a lot of fun!

[Bethan Carney @BethanCarney]

@decadentdickens @GE_MissHavisham @GEReadalong Hello daughter! 😉

[Katie Bell, PhD 🇵🇸 @decadentdickens]

Time for the denouement: I tweeted as @GE_EstellaH for @GEReadalong. Being inside Estella’s head is probably one of the hardest writing exercises I’ve done.

@AliceCTurner @EmmaLCurry @GE_YoungPip @GEReadalong @GE_JoeGargery Hello, from @GE_Wemmick. I shall miss living in a castle and firing cannons all day long!! Thanks @GEReadalong

[Dr Helen McKenzie @H_McKenzie_]

@GE_Wemmick @GE__Molly @GE_Jaggers @GE_YoungPip @GEReadalong @GE_AgedP Hello from @GE_Wemmick's alter ego to my dearest @GE_AgedP, to my fellow advocate for 🧳,@GE_Jaggers, to my bestie @GE_YoungPip and everyone else in @GEReadalong!!

@EmmaLCurry @GE_YoungPip @GEReadalong Okay, now it's me. I've also really enjoyed being @GE_JoeGargery . We've 'ad oncommon larks! Thanks @EmmaLCurry , @GEReadalong for organising it!

[Pete Orford @DrPeteOrford]

For 8 months I've been tweeting sarcastically for @GEReadalong as @GE_OldPip while @EmmaLCurry was all wide-eyed as @GE_YoungPip - it's a sorry state of affairs for her if she turns into me when she's older!

[Emma Curry @EmmaLCurry]

Have had a jolly/extremely angsty time tweeting as @GE_YoungPip for the last eight months. Thanks to all our @GEReadalong tweeters for taking part! Check out the feed for some of the finest Dickens/GIF crossovers available to humanity 😁 #pipproblems forever!
