Key quote: “So he's written. He's had some quite big name books. So Pickwick Papers, Oliver Twist, Nicholas Nickleby.”
The host mentions 'Nicholas Nickleby' to highlight Dickens' early success as a writer, having already produced several notable works by the age of 31. This reference serves to illustrate the context of Dickens' career leading up to the creation of 'A Christmas Carol'.
