Harry has been cast in the role of Herbert Pocket. For those of you who can't exactly remember or don't know who that is- Herbert is Pip's best friend, they first meet as young boys and Herbert challenges Pip to a fight. As young men they meet again and share an apartment together in London.

In any case I think Charles Dicken's would be happy (and very proud) that his great-great-great-grandson is acting in a TV adaptation of his novel.
The series has already begun filming and is set to air this Christmas on BBC One.
