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

I actually thought the promo wasn't bad. Love your content dude!
I’m hooked on your spin on the story. Any chance of expanding the after party theme with a guest appearance of Radagast the brown and a bag of his primo mushrooms?
Fans want to see qui find out about anikan. Episodes 1 2 and 3 come on give fans what they want
You should do a video where gandalf plays elden ring!❤
I have a question for Elrond. Why didn't you join the fellowship of the ring? You have a lot of power and wisdom. But you just stay behind and talk with Aragorns girlfriend.
Strangers from distant lands, friends of old. You have been summoned here today to kick back with gandalf and the boys
I am all in for if you want to keep doing these videos for the entire extended edition trilogy. Put out a 100 hour supercut and I'll happily watch it 😁
would probably get tired of doing the voices at that point
Or a DVD style audio commentary of the extended version to listen alongside the movie.
Based on the eyes Rosie had been giving him all night, I'm fairly certain she was just waiting for Sam to make a move.
Yes but why?
@@mark9294 she wanted samwise to give her the slamwise. she wanted him to tend her garden. she wanted him drop her eaves and trim her verge. to bear her ring. she wanted him to sheath his sting.
@lord_wyran she wanted him to plant his seed in her soil.
@@longdongmc.johnson till her fields
@@longdongmc.johnson Name checks out
The trauma firework joke was amazing i wonder how many people caught that
Everyone caught it. Now the "soggy biscuit" bit.....😶
Every line of Boromir is golden
Thorin is like one of those dads whose convinced they got stuff to do and just end up watching the whole movie standing up
I love all the subtle Gandalf face twitches while he’s watching. You are a master of your craft, good sir.
Turning Samwise Gamgee into a potato is absolute comic genius.
Waiting for the next part! Can't wait to see what Gandalf will say in the BILBO BAGGINS! DO NOT TAKE ME FOR SOME CONJURER OF CHEAP TRICKS part.
Haha yeah!
I want a cross over between you and the orcs with normal voices guys
This HAS to happen.
Would they have ruZZian accents?? 🤔 😏
It would be glorious!
MEATS BACK ON MENU BOYS
@@RR-ut3xl we’ll get those men
That setup between Thorin and Gandalf was wicked
That's how you make a add the audience doesn't want to skip.👍
These three characters should do running commentary on just about everything. They've got the right chemistry to agree and antagonize each other.
I could listen to these discussions... dialogues... uhhh conversations.... for hours. Beautiful.
This series is great! May the algorithm bless it.
After getting so used to the look of this Gandalf it is really weird to see the actual one
The Ian McKellen voice is the best of any of the voices Charlie is doing. Also for some reason it's easier for him to keep the deep fake head centered on gandolf. It tends to move around a bit for boromir and the baby elf. I still don't get why they're using a different face for Anakin in the Star wars parodies.
Its a tossup between Yung Elrond and Gandalf for me, he's got Elronds slow delivery bang on.
@@ArticLover yeah but I think I could do a pretty good Hugo Weaving especially from The Matrix. The Ian McKellen voice is a skill. The best of all of the voices is Morgan Freeman because that just seems bizarre coming out of him. If you watch the voice only things he does where he mimics seven characters a lot of them aren't very good. But the ones he does good he really nails. He should do the Matrix. He's already got Hugo weaving and there's only three or four more characters.. I'm sure he can do Keanu because almost everybody can.
I think the joke was that anakin was cloned from his hand that was cut off by obi-wan and so his face and brain ain't quite right.
His Boromir is legit AF
@@pwnzorofretards but it's only that way he sounded when he's pleading for the ring. It's real breathy and exasperated which is not Boromir's constant voice.
This is the only channel where I watch through the paid segments. SO GREAT!
Pretty sure the bit where Gandalf splits the boulder in the troll story was only in the Hobbit movies. All part of the padding and bloat ;)
I LOVE the references that no one will get unless they read Fellowship! LOVE IT!
I always appreciate your creative sponsored ads. They don’t seem forced
"That fireworks shindig in NYC 2002" Too soon ,Gandalf, too soon
"We're gonna party like it's the 2nd age!" -Gandalf
Oh man… you need to do an episode where your Mckellen Gandalf goes overboard on the pipe weed, gets a bit trippy, and turns into John Huston’s Gandalf (not too far from Morgan Freeman) from the Bass-Rankin ‘77 Hobbit looking at the ‘77 Hobbit…. and then goes overboard on the shrooms and hallucinates into the William Squire Gandalf of Bakshi’s ‘78 LOTR…. with plenty of freakish pointing into the camera and saying “Saruman” without the “S” 😂
Then Michael Hordern.
@@cg98243 Yes! Then Michael Hordern-Gandalf can have traumatic flashbacks to Where Eagles Dare: "Pull out now Broadsword, save yourselves, over.."
@@andygrams6344 Or flashbacks to following Graham Chapman around an island doing nature experiments. 🤔
Elronds recap of Bilbo speech is the funniest thing!!! Top tier.
That add is wonderful. I work at hello fresh.
probably the first youtuber to make the ads entertaining to watch, hats off to you young sir
This series is fantastic! I hope you continue it!!
the ad in the middle is hilarious, much better than the typical "pause the video to deliver a message" routine you see all over youtube
I can’t wait to see Gandalf mope the floor with the Necromancer 😂
I love these impressions 😂
I knew Gandalf was going to off on Pippin. Can't wait to see more of it 😂
Gandalf almost throwing potato Sam into the skillet 😅🤣 One of the best HF ads I’ve ever seen
Finally someone understands how to wrap a sponsorship creatively into their channel 👍. Having worked in advertising for 30 years I cringe when influencers try to promote random products. Great job! 👍 Love the channel 💯
Yeah even when they post a promotion at the very beginning of the video or in the middle so cringe and rude
Your skits are FANTASTIC
2:00 You know I just noticed, it's sweet how she sees Sam stumbling into the ring and immediately takes him in and starts dancing with him. Even though we never really get attention put on Rosie, it's a little touch that does make it so she's not having Sam 'pushed onto her' but actively reaching out and taking him in.
The HelloFresh AD was watchable. lol I usually skip the AD part, but you are funny.
absolutely hilarious!!! made my day
This is just too good. Thanks man.
Love this, Charlie has a great talent, the comedy scripts are top notch too.
Please please keep making these!
Pauses I minute in to say: Life goal - to incorporate "bachanalian stuff" into more conversations - although more likely to use it ironically 😏
“I wish I knew half of you more than I already did, and the number of you who deserve to be liked twice as much as I do already is less than half.”
That’s the translation.
I’m glad that Elrond showed concern for Bilbo’s mental health
This is phenomenal. I can’t stop laughing
I've seen a lot of HelloFresh ads in my time, and this was probably the best of them. It was almost as funny as the rest of the video!
Your guys videos always make me laugh I can't wait till the next part when you guys get to it. Lol
.... I want that smeagle mug. That's fantastic.
Great work, Charlie!
13:16 lmao I want this edited this into the actual film. I love this series.
Speaking of Saruman's snacks, I always wondered where Saruman got the south farthing weed in his storeroom. Did he travel to Hobbiton and buy some? and have to be really discreet about it? with the dark wizard cloak cover up and all? Don't want Gandalf to know he does grass dealings with Hobbits😂
It's a whole thing in the books! Saruman's guilty pleasure and the work it took to maintain it was laid out in one of In Deep Geek's videos about Saruman, can't remember which one.
@@JimmyLundberg saw the same Deep Geek vid recently, if I recall right Saruman got into weed import/export because it was _Gandalf's_ habit (and supplying him with heavier grade stuff kept him more distracted)
But I might have it wrong 🤷♂️
Edit: the video was "LotR from Saruman's perspective"
Fantastic Episode I can not wait for the next one After party gonna be great
9 more hours of reaction videos? That dear man deserves a sub lol.
That was the most chill fire I have ever seen.
Baby Elrond will never not make me laugh.😂
Well done, sir.
I still dont understand why he's a baby tho
@@minnumseerrund Me either but it still cracks me up to see that face on a doll’s body
'Trauma fireworks' had me pissing myself
Gandalf having a rave is unnaturally funny
Jackson's kids turn up later in Rohan and Mina Tirith. Very disconcerting.
I love Boromir's John Berger moment and Gandalf's mocking the toffs.
These vids are so funny, Charlie.
John berger moment?
@@CharlieHopkinson
In his book Ways of Seeing Berger talks about the male gaze. Sorry, thought that was what you were referencing.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ways_of_Seeing
7:16 LOL
“Use my link or go to Hell!” Oh Fresh is what I heard. 05:27
😂
Trauma fireworks 🤣 amazing
Elrond has got to step-up his riddle game on Bilbos speech. "I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve" is a compliment to the party goers, not an insult 🤓
First sponsor section I actually enjoyed watching.
“Representing the Realm of Adorables.” lol
Best comedy of the year
This Was super funny made me laugh to my side hurt well well done
Rave Gandalf is Best Gandalf.
Ya know, I actually found the in video ad quite entertaining
Please do all the lotr these ARE absolute GOLD 😂🤣
I didnt realize that Charlie was A Hobbit. @5:08
Gandalf in there having a nostril gospel 😂😂
Thorin cracks me up 😅😅
heh that dig at thorin
Trauma firework... fuck im dead
Not sure if it's been mentioned, but the proud foot scene with his feet large in camera, was actually copied from the animated film and was PJ paying homage to it with a near replication of the angle
That hello fresh gandalf did NOT have big saggy hands, the incongruity is what probably made me laugh.
that's sam's girlfriend. her character is clearly and succinctly spelled out in the last few pages of the third book
Wait i think he mentioned me lol coincidentally my two towers extended edition dvd is signed by sir Ian McKellen himself !
That's how you do an integrated ad.
love how depressed Sean Bean is.
Charlie's viewing party raised some really good points thie episode.
I wanna hear the Gandalf 911 story
You need to do a game of Thrones reaction as eddard stark. Your Sean bean is so funny.
I sometimes forget if he is Boromir or Ned Stark. 🤣
Elrond is the best parts of these!
4:32 Now there's a shortcut to mushrooms.
Party time
5:00 Gandalf looks like two kids trying to look like an adult.
Qui-ganolf the Kenobi, Elromir Skywalker.
Hope you come back to these eventually.
We’re working on the next 2 now
Awesome! Can't wait! @@CharlieHopkinson
If you're not going to do marvel you should think about doing the Matrix. You've already got Hugo weaving and I'm betting you could do Keanu. I can do Keanu I just have to be hit by a rock really hard on the head. Don't forget to say dude a lot. Lol.
I miss these guys
That "pretty much" was Qui Gon
This is what the fellowship would be doing after LOTR😂😂😂😂
Mage rates! Hahahaa
Someone get Boromir his Ventolin puffer!
Loving zombie thorin!
Do a Game of Thrones one, where Robert Baratheon and Ned Stark watch the series season 2 onwards! Please!
The salted pork is particularly good
