Over the course of nearly three decades we follow a series of events that seems to conspire to change Pip's life forever - a summons to meet the bitter, decaying Miss Havisham and her beautiful, cold-hearted ward Estella, and the sudden generosity of a mysterious benefactor to fund Pip's education to become a gentleman.
