Once again writer Scott Wieprecht brings this age old pantomime fairy tale to life full of brand new twists, turns and characters. Dick has made for London to find his fortune but when he gets there he has no luck and so he decides to return to Plumouth. On the way however he bumps in to a fairy who predicts his fortune lies in London Town. After meeting Alice and Fitwaren, Dick finds he now has a job and a girl who he has fallen in love with. Things start looking up and Dick and his new pet cat Tommy seem to be settling in.

Unfortunately things dont go to plan and the evil King Rat soon has a hand in Dicks undoing planting a golden necklace Dick was meant to be looking after in his pocket to make it look like he stole it. Dick is thrown out and all looks lost until the fairy once again persuades him to return and prove his innocence, the only problem is they are about to set sail on a boat and Dick must stow aboard. After the ship they are on is in a terrible storm, everyone is sunk and only with the help of the fairy can they once again get to dry land where they are met by the Sultan of Moroco.

This however is problematic as King Rat turns up and challanges Dick to a fight, but with some last minute training from a mystery guest can Dick save the day... all will be revealed in Dick Whittington 2010
