Researchers who asked the public to help them decipher some of Charles Dickens's coded manuscripts have, with their help, decoded one of his papers.

The famous author wrote many notes in a personalised form of shorthand.

The Dickens Code project, led by the University of Leicester's Dr Claire Wood, asked for assistance to solve the mystery.

More than 1,000 volunteers from across the world came forward to help the experts.
