Charlie Hopkinson is a comedic impressionist, impersonator, voice guy, whatever you want to call it who specialises in voices from current television shows and films. His standup is a character act about a retired maths teacher, his standup set includes impressions of Sir David Attenborough, Robin Williams, Morgan Freeman, Liam Neeson, Peaky Blinders, Tommy and Arthur Shelby and Gandalf from Lord of the Rings.
Always looking to update my roster I look to try out subscriber suggested impressions in the impressions challenge series before honing the best ones. Recently I have added Peaky Blinders and Marvel / Avengers characters to my arsenal!
I currently run a number of series including:
Impression Reels - The very best impressions I can do, Including LOTR, Harry Potter, Star Wars, Peaky Blinders, Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Cartoons .etc
Impression Challenges - Trying out new impressions in a less polished form.
Impression Dramatic song covers - Voices of Reason.
Low Budget Animation - Stickman sketch remakes of Iconic Tv shows and movies.
How to do Impressions - An audience lead tutorial series where I attempt to pass on my Impressions knowledge.
Dubs - Comedic dubs of iconic scenes with new dialogue, (My Peaky Blinders and Lord of The Rings dubs have grossed over 6 million views on Facebook)
Standup - Clips from Standup sets I have performed over the last year.
Comedy Sketches - Comedy Sketches
I started learning impressions in 2012, at the age of 20. You can follow my full impressions journey in my new ‘How to do impressions’ tutorial series
After graduating from the University of Warwick in the summer 2013 he took 4 months out to concentrate on CZcams videos full time, including producing his most viewed video to date ‘Morgan Freeman and 40 other impressions’ with just over 12 million views. This foray into being a ‘full time CZcamsr’ was cut short as he went travelling for 3 months before starting a 2 year teaching Graduate scheme with Charity ‘Teach First’.
While teaching he has performed in and narrated the 4 episode series ‘Lookalikes’ as Morgan Freeman. The show and the narration received a positive reception. The show aired on Channel 4 during the prime time slot of Friday 10pm for three weeks. It is now currently available on Netflix. Charlie also performed with other well known impressionists for an unaired pilot.
Charlie has worked for several prominent brands in relation to their products, including google and formula 1.
Since the summer of 2016 Charlie has once again dived into the world of CZcams, for the first time producing content on a weekly basis. He is also focusing on live performance; he has performed in live venues a total of 3 times to date.
His top impressions include:
Morgan Freeman (Red -Shawshank redemption)
Sir Ian McKellen (Gandalf - Lord of the Rings)
Aaron Paul (Jesse Pinkman - Breaking Bad)
Alan Rickman (Snape - Harry Potter)
Michael Caine (Alfred - Batman)
Jon Snow (Game of Thrones)
Jack Sparrow (Pirates of the Carribean)
Christoph Waltz (Django Unchained, Inglorious bastards)
Alec Guiness (Ben Kenobi - Star Wars)
Agent Smith (The Matrix)
Sean Bean (Boromir - Lord of the Rings)
Richard Armitage (Thorin Oakenshield - The Hobbit)
Charles Dance (Tywin Lannister - Game of Thrones)
Tyrion Lannister (Game of Thrones)
Bryan Cranston (Walter White - Breaking Bad)
Frank Underwood (House of Cards)
Tommy Shelby (Peaky Blinders) - Zábava
"Maybe a better wizard than Gandalf"
"HARRY POTTER"
😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Gandalf names the wizards, “Me, Radagast, this prick-“ 😂
I still can't handle the Elrond face on the baby 😂
The swimming scene always reminded me of the beginning of Robinhood Men in Tights when he swims to England.
“He’s called Durin Durin?”
“Yeah. He was thinking of starting a band.”
You killed me with that one 😂
who do need, who do you loved, when you come undone
What's the reference to?
@@classicalmusic1337 uhhh you never hear the legendary british band duran duran? are you gen Z?
I didn't hear the "He was thinking of starting a band." part on my first watch. Haha. That Duran Duran ref. was kingly.
For all we know that person got the ref. minutes after asking. Even obvious refs. can be easy to miss in the right/wrong state of mind.
This just makes me want to go watch TV at Gandalf's place on the weekends.
"You're not such a looker yourself Poppy. And for that matter, neither are these elves" Agree 100% 👌🤭😄
Dude . . . I hope they keep making that abomination of a show for the sheer fact that your Gandalf roasts make my day sometimes. Bravo man.
Yep. This is far better than the show...!
I was just thinking the same thing yesterday. He’s a genius!
They have to keep making it, otherwise the accountants wool be wondering where that billion dollars went.
"Sometimes we cannot know [the brilliant] until we've touched the [abomination]."
Yes Amazon, please keep wasting 58 million $ per episode to fuel Charlie's work! I'm all for it 😂😂😂
Too bad only that this is being paid by people's craving for convenience, and bad working conditions. Might still be worth the end product though... 😁
Also I love baby Elrond
‘It’s not a protein shake it’s bAby formula’
It killed me 😂
He’s thinking of starting a band LOL! Durin-Durin really would be excellent. *Stubborn like the Dwarf* is a huge hit.
Hungry like a warg
New Ered Luin on Monday
AAAAARG! This is the funniest series, I want more from Elrond, Boromoir, Gandalf reviewing literally anything ever.
They are going to be doing plenty more
right?! this dude is hilarious... I LOVE the subtlety of some of his jokes... I save these for the end of the night to watch with a wee sip
@@CharlieHopkinson what about Gandalf volunteering/being forced to be Santa at his local shopping centre? XD
When you started to speak firefly, and you said "ᴇʜʜᴇʜʜʜᴇʜᴇʜʜʜᴇʜᴇʜʜʜʜʜᴇʜ..."
I felt that.
Rings Of Power should have ended after the final episode, but evil was allowed to endure.
Toss it into the fire! Isildur!!
It was made in the bowels of Mt. Amazon, only there can be unmade.
After the trailer man
Should've ended after the first episode and spared us all.
Should have ended when the Tolkien estate wouldn't let Amazon actually use the Silmarillion, rather than Amazon forging ahead with this shitty fanfic version.
I wish someone took a picture showing the mixture of confusion, disgust, hilarity and wtfuckkery that contorted onto my face when Galadriel jumped off that boat
Galadriel went full Robin Hood men in tights while swimming that far.
I feel like sir ian mckellen would be down to do this if asked, he loved the source material
I remember being utterly captivated by the Peter Jackson trilogy in highschool was my introduction to this wonderful world. Now I enjoy every CZcamsr roasting this Amazon abomination. Cheers mate
There's Galadriel from the movies and then there's whatever this is.
I remember wondering why it skipped episode 2… now here it is, with no explanation, several months later 😂 what joy, I love your videos
the sweeping shots of the cities are genuinely breathtaking.
This parody's writing's a hundred times better than the actual show.
Yes, this is great. Although it's not really hard to make something better than the cringe of power. I'm sure my little nephew of 8 can make a more compelling and cohesive show with a shoebox and cardboard characters.
I disagree I am sure you meant thousands..?
This entire series and charlie's coverage of star wars leaves me yearning for more....do some other stuff. Star Trek or indiana jones or something.
Gandalf is clearly not familiar with the unnatural caloric qualities of Elven Lembas bread 😂
I literally cried when baby Lord Elrond said "Just waiting for Sauron to be Welsh now" 😂 Bloody brilliant, I might actually have to keep watching Rings of Power just to follow this channel. Great bloody content boys! Keep it up!
She may have been able to swim the Atlantic but it would have taken her until the end of the forth age to complete it. 😂
How would an Elf know what it's like to care for an "aged parent?" He would certainly not use that as a reference for anything.
Specially when said elf’s dad died before he could be considered ancient
Honestly I think they forgot what elves are.
Isn’t that the joke? Hellooooo
@@meganpettus5671 joke? You think that was a joke?
@@TheArmchairrocker The whole video is a joke. Don't be so pedantic.
This made me actually laugh out loud several times. That doesn’t happen that often. Good work.
"...you're not such a looker yourself" 😅😅
I mean, you didn't point it out but watching this video made me realise that her questioning Halbrand for "readily abandoning his comrades" is a bit rich when she tried to abandon one of her subordinates at the beginning of the first episode.
He forgot Frodo’s name!😂😂 That entire joke killed me.
I didn't realize you were doing all the impressions yourself. I thought maybe the AI was helping. I came here from obi wan roasts. I thought you were extremely talented even when i didn't think you were doing all the impressions on your own. My mind is blown.🎉😮
"Durin Durin?"
"yeah, he's thinking of starting a band" 😂
I get your reference, love it haha
Guyladriel swims across an ocean, and survived an volcano eruption. The utter breaking of lore is an oversimplification. Amazon also broke the laws of physics.
Oh, and since Halbrand is Sauron, he just saves someone that is hunting him. Even though it would be a better idea to just let her drown. Would've made this show a little better
Technically she only swam across half an ocean, given that she gets rescued by two ships and taken to Númenor, which is canonically JUST in vision range of Tol Eressëa on a clear day.
As for the volcanic eruption, Amazon came out and said "Yeah we know it was ridiculous but we wanted it to look cool." - which tbf I actually respect, because I don't watch Lord of the Rings movies for perfect scientific accuracy. Constantly seeking perfect realism and obeisance to the laws of physics can get a bit boring. At least this example looked hella dramatic, unlike Legolas Mario-jumping up falling rocks in The Hobbit.
Finally, Sauron at the beginning of the Second Age was actually pretty outwardly repentant and felt like the death of Morgoth was an opportunity to start anew and make up for some of the damage he caused... however given the extent of his crimes, he was pretty sure he was gonna get the book thrown at him and he would spend the rest of eternity rotting in a cell, so he ran instead, and given the absence of any good Maiar therapists in Middle Earth, combined with the fact that EVERYONE cursed his name, he quickly fell back on old habits. Him saving Galadriel at the start of this is - at least in the show's logic and truncated timeline - his feeble attempt at a redemptive act.
Alternatively, if you refuse to see it that way, it is a manipulative tactic to gain himself a powerful ally who has no knowledge of who he truly is - which works out perfectly for him, given that she procures him an army and reconquers Mordor for him, while also giving him access to Celebrimbor and the ear of the Númenorean Queen.
This is a gold mine, great stuff. Some of this dialogue made my day!
"you're not michael phelps or a tugbaot"
nearly spat out my drink
As soon as Baby Gandalf started eating the snails, I called out that he is french and then you said the same 🤣
Can't stop laughing
What I wouldn’t give to see Durin Durin live😂😂😂
Where they play Hungry like the Warg, or Wild Orcs.
I helped you into the boat, so that means I saved you. I thought the same thing 😅
OMG, gandalf doing a morgan freeman impression made me laugh
"Id rather be parched to death than drink backwash" had me friggin dead 😂
Recently discovered you and just finished binging all your “ roasts” vids and you deliver me with two new episodes! Thanks! Haha
I’m glad Amazon made the show bc we got this.
'What is this, Jabba's palace?' xD That's so accurate lmao.
I'll never watch that abomination, but I LOVE this!
I'll look forward to next season for this 😂
Thanks, Charlie. These are great!
I have got to get myself a Gollum mug!
Parody at its best. Thank you
Your Christopher Lee voice has gotten way better!!!
Yey! Was looking forward to see these again.
it's almost criminal that you don't have at least half a million likes, honestly
YES! I needed my funny fix. thank you! this guy is awesome
I love that Charlie has a coffee mug for everything
“He’s thinking of starting a band” 😂😂😂😂😂
More please Charlie! I'll buy all the square spaces you want!
Rings Of Power is one the shows ever.
Definitely one of the shows of all time
@@seethroughlife1481 A show that exists.
It was, and is, a show.
Man I'm having a hard time keeping my stitches together laughing at this
I love how this Elrond has to try to defend the dopiness (or “pick me”-ness) of ROP Elrond. 😂
So I'm NOT crazy. There WASN'T an episode two before an hour ago...lol
The Blue Wizards he is referring to: twins, do actually appear in the second age, the only Istari that do, they are sent to look for Sauron, the stories differ on their fate though, some say they got tied up in the Eastlands, others that they came back and reported that there was a new Wendys in Rhûn. We shall probably never know...
Sorry aside from Sauron the Black of course, the master of Necromancy, and a great beleiver in undead meat based food.
MMmmmm Barrow Wight Snacks are barrow RIGHT snacks!
They're mummified but heir so good.™
I really enjoyed the scene where Galadriel jumps down from the rafters, picks up a water pitcher, throws it on the ground, walks on the broken glass, and says "I'm too strong! I'm too motivated!" Gave me chill bumps
Is this a fat camp reference? It's been a while, but it seem familiar.
Yay it's here! Thank you so much for these amazing skits! 😂❤
So glad ur back bud
These videos are sheer genius. Keep up the great work! 👍
Galadrrrrriel, Industrial Cruise Liner 🚢🚢🚢👌
Saruman gets me every time.
Love these
Almost as if an evil greedy corporation that seeks to dominate all living things is not equipped to adapt the works of tolkein well, who could've guesses
It's even worse that the burns are from a servant of the Secret Fire and not from some flame of Udun.
That aside, it's a shame that there are no more Trolls, or Saruman could give a sample of his famous "Trollololololo..." song.
Brilliant!
its telling that the most replayed section of the video is the ending of your sponsorship.
Well done. 🤣🤣🤣
I have a hard time denying that RoP looks fantastic. The inner content is what annoys me most.
A bit like Guy Ritchies The Gentlemen. Lavish but just a vanity excersise.
What a massively expensive torture of literature and poetry.
Looking forward to more of it to be wonderfully dissected here.
It's ammo for good talent like Mr. Hopkinson.
This is worth the wait! The Qui-Gon one can be seen in the playlist too. Looking forward to the next one.
In “The Rings of Power” multiple choice test, the “C” is always right!
ahhahahahhaah u th best mate. loved it
Thanks!
I lost it at "aerobic capacity" :D
The gollum mug is unhinged
Sweeeeet! Another roast! 😃😃😃
Very funny ! 😂😂😂
At this point I'd watch Gandalf raost any show or movie
The jokes just keep coming!
I was thinking, "Galadriel can't be as bad as people say. She's such a great character.".
I was right. She's even worse...
she ate two lembas right before she jumped
I love the way Saruman patronizes Gandalf xP it was re-uploaded? I see the upload date as today but is the second episode and I really doubt you are watching it again :T
"I'm good!"
The part about the chanting scene…those dwarves should mine your jokes instead of mithril: they’d be richer. 😎
This is the first time I'm watching rings of power and now I get to enjoy it with the real gandalf haha
Raft Lady: "The Elf lead it right to US!"
Me: "How?"
Didn’t the Elves want to build a super Forge? Then why did they forge the first 3 rings in an Elvish easy bake oven?
Why is this show so fascinated with hot stuff that's not actually hot? Especially if it's related to supernatural stuff?
If this show was canon, then Mt. Doom would be a palette-swapped iceberg. With Sauron dresses up as Santa.
Best characters in all of the LOTR shows/movies 1. Gandalf 2. The Eagles 3. This Gandalf
Yessssssss
YESSS😂😂
Hands down the best part of Rings of Power was it turned me onto this content, great work!
Say what you will about the tv show, but I’m glad they are doing anything Tolkien related! Even if it’s messed up…once again I must mention this, I am the owl of Merlin… a blue wizard. Young Elrond looks like Neil Patrick Harris
The actor himself looks different, but for some reason for ROP, they basically made him Neil Patrick Harris
I read the Silmarillion right before this show in prep. To really get the wider context. Much like I did with The Hobbit right before those movies came out. Boy, in terms of my goal was that a huge waste of time. But I am happy with it since I got to read some sick books.
Fkn hilarious
Ah good, coming out in the wrong order, like the rings of power themselves, fascinating Gandalf.
The pulp fiction "unnamed precious item in a portable container" trope made it here, I see. Wonder if somebody is going to secret the ring of power in his backside, or some dudes going to be caught by pervert trolls or some such. Bring out the gimp!
Is this a reupload or did episode 2 get missed originally?
Sure I've seen this before but I can't remember haha
