We watched the BBC masterpiece theater production of David Copperfield last night, the one with Daniel Radcliffe and the woman that plays Prof. McGonagal. It was pretty darn good. I haven't watched the ending yet, so don't tell me what happens.

Dame Maggie Smith

And David Copperfield ends this way

Spoiler:

And now, as I close my task, subduing my desire to linger yet, these faces fade away. But one face, shining on me like a Heavenly light by which I see all other objects, is above them and beyond them all. And that remains.

I turn my head, and see it, in its beautiful serenity, beside me.

My lamp burns low, and I have written far into the night; but the dear presence, without which I were nothing, bears me company.

O Agnes, O my soul, so may thy face be by me when I close my life indeed; so may I, when realities are melting from me, like the shadows which I now dismiss, still find thee near me, pointing upward!
