1x01 Episode 1

The convict, Magwitch was a mean old sod but what Pip did for him was nice considering the scary tale he told him but at least he took the blame for the file and the piece of pie and Miss Havisham looked more like a ghost and the lawyer from London informing the now adult Pip that he is a young man of great expectations and will inherit a fortune when he turns 21 should be interesting

1x02 Episode 2

Small world Pip sharing his lodgings with Herbert the spoilt brat he punched all those years ago but what he did for him with his future inheritance behind his back was nice and Pip kissing Estella in the lake did go down well but he is not the only one who has his eye on her and nice way to end this episode with the revelation of his benefactor
