Among the memorable cast of characters the author encounters along the way are his brutal stepfather, Mr Murdstone; bubbly Nurse Peggotty; but unworthy schoolmate Steerforth, his eccentric aunt, Betsy Trotwood, the scheming clerk Uriah Heep, the enchanting Dora and the magnificent Mr Macawber - a character much like Dickens' own father.
