4/6. A dramatisation by Dan Tetsell of a 19th-century comic novel by Pierce Egan.
Having nothing left to pawn, Pierce Egan is reduced to pawning himself. He talks his way out of this bind by relating the adventures of Tom, Bob and Jerry as they drink with the lower orders in the East End, dance with high society in the West End and attend a masquerade, where Jerry is smitten by the serial seductress Lady Wanton.
