Dickensian miser (7)
I believe the answer is:
scrooge
'dickensian miser' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for scrooge that I've seen before include "Ebenezer ......., miser created by Dickens" , "A Christmas Carol miser" , "See 25 Across" , "meanie" , "Skinflint Ebenezer" .)
