I love Dickens ... reading, and watching.
My favorite film adaptation is Great Expectations (1946), directed by David Lean. George Cukor's David Copperfield is a close second. And, of course Alistair Sim is a divine Scrooge.
The BBC has done some wonderful presentations that were serialized for television. My favorite, among those is Nicholas Nickleby, done in 6 installments. I also bought the DVDs of their Bleak House, and The Pickwick Papers.
I, vaguely, recall seeing an episode of the old Perry Mason series that had an "Oliver Twist-like" plot. Google at your service ... they found it for me.
