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 UA-cam 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 UA-camr’ 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 UA-cam, 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)
I'm back, and catching up with all the Mandalorian stuff this week.
Thankyou to all the new patrons: Erin J, Justin Roberts and Zwick566, your donations are currently going towards a nazgul costume...
Good Stuff Charlie!
Was just wondering when you were making another one, thanks for the upload they’re always a delight to watch❤️
your Stark is spot on man lol well done, one of the only things on the internet that actually makes me smile lol keep it up k
Good luck with the Lizzo episode!
If this is the first time Lord of the Rings then why does the Thumbnail says EP2 or is that a mistake
😆 Lord Elronds reaction to Bilbo talking about aging is priceless.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 had me choking on my tobacco pipe 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah not once but twice just looking at the younger picture.. like 🤔 so funny 😂
😂 cus he literally still aged roughly 30-40 humanoid years objectively. A rare strange choice of dialogue for PJ
Running out of life force?
Elrond: just get more life force from Mithril
Elrond just silently staring at young Bilbo, trying to think of what to say is freakin’ genius!
The way Elrond keeps thinking to himself how old Bilbo looks has me dying
Isnt it more like a compliment anyway to claim someone hasn't aged at all.
@@Jebu911 An insincere compliment most of the time xD
"I'm not getting dragged into an argument on mortality with two people who cannot die."
"I just don't understand why he doesn't get more butter."
I laughed way too hard at this.
Right? he's not even judging. He's just genuinely confused by the metaphor.
You always have to read the fine print with Mithrandir.
Oh Bilbo Bollocks!
Bilbo Bellend
That on a tshirt, if gandalfs still looking to shift merch. Haha
I still quite like "Bilbo Twattins"
Dildo Shaggins
I'm going to use that whenever I want to say b.s. I'll just say that 😂😂
"You always have to read the fine print with Mithrandir" I could not stop laughing!
And the chuckle that follows... I was looking for this 😂
OK, the Elrond looking at a picture of young bilbo is damn good gag. Bravo sir.
I found out my dog Daisy has terminal metastatic cancer this week. She was the ring bearer at my wedding, she slept on the bed with my wife while she was pregnant with our daughter, and she has been my best friend through many dangers.
I can’t tell you how much I needed this eleven minutes and forty two seconds.
Bless you, laddie. Bless you.
Jeez your Gandalph is frighteningly perfect
Elrond looking at the drawing of Bilbo every time Gandalf says Bilbo hasn't aged! 😂
"Just get more butter!"
You may think Aragorn breaking his toe is mentioned too frequently now, but the moment of Gandalf hitting his head at 6:41 was also real. As one can tell by the excessive force.
I'm having a tough time right now, and I really needed this. Thank you 🤣🤣🤣
Hope everything’s okay
@@joshjacobson932 Things are better now ^.^
Every line of Boromir is golden
Hahaha Gandalf turning Sam into a Poe-tay-toe! Genius!
Wot's taters, Precious?
Sam’s voice impersonation is so horrendously bad, which is jarring because the other impersonations are so amazing, but it’s forgivable just because Sam’s been turned into a Poe-Tay-Toe. That probably would mess with one’s vocal chords. ;)
Loved Elrond's confused sigh looking at the drawing of younger Bilbo. ^^
“Just…get…more butter…”😂😂
A friend of mine told me about these videos where they managed to get Sir Ian McKellen to watch Rings of Power and roast it. He was heartbroken when I revealed it wasn't Sir Ian 😂
🤣poor guy
I wonder if Sir Ian has actually watched rings of power actually
“I’m not getting dragged into an argument about mortality with two people who cannot die” 😂
That had me rolling.
The joy you spread, mate. These are so well scripted and acted, and are utterly hilarious. Cheers.
Spread with plenty butter over just the right amount of bread.
“Young reality TV director Peter Jackson” - perfect! 😂
The gandalf roasts are one of the few vids on UA-cam I click on immediately when seeing it and have to watch. So good
“I’d’ve just told him to F off.” 😂😂😂
Really creative discussion on how to solve Bilbo's bread and butter problem! 🤣
I'm not convinced a Hobbit would ever consider reducing the bread portion but I'm willing to hear arguments...
I've been watching UA-cam for over a decade now but this series is easily becoming one of my favorite of all time. Please keep up the marvelous work!
Oh boy, please tell us you’re going to do the entire film.. the joy of seeing the movie again whilst laughing at your roast will be awesome.. thanks team Charlie. 🙂👍
"Po-Tat-O's! Boil em, Mash em, stick em in a stew." Sams regretting that now.
Lol really love "Oh shit, that night," especially with the ear-ringing. Beautiful moment
“I will scrabble you anytime, anywhere…” 💀💀💀
I like that Elrond remains as a baby
Gandalf wandering Middle Earth singing “Rocking all over the World” is pretty much what I’d hope for.
my head canon, with the info so far, is that during filming, tolkien the reporter was documenting the adventure and turned it into the books that, in-hopkinson-universe, acted partially as promotional material for the "reality show" while the films were being edited (which took a bit).
Pretty much
Elrond at war with himself as to whether or not to call out Bilbo's clearly age 🤣
That last bit with the wizard clip is perfect!!😂
I can't get over how well it fits😂
This whole video is priceless!!
Can't wait for the next one😊
The mic in front of Sam the potato is genius 😅
I love your work Charlie
My man your humor is epic ! Keep it up love these videos !
"Have to read the fine print with Mithrandir" So true. What's more natural than a Tater?
The look down at the drawing by Elrond is by far the best moment
No lie, if I heard Gandalf tell Frodo to fuck off, I would have died. Now I'm thinking of Gandalf as this foul mouthed pissed off wizard and it just tickles me.
Showed my friend your channel since he loves both star wars and LOTR. He was laughing so hard at this! Thank you!
Honestly never caught that Gandalf was one week late 😂
Yesssssss! Your videos were one of the best things to come out of Amazon's Rings of Power. So happy to see you're continuing with these characters.
your Sean Bean impersonation is so good I've pissed my pants
You're a Master of your craft Charlie!
He only hangs out there because it makes him feel taller. 😂
These are just tooo goooood!!!
Great stuff brother.
Great stuff I really enjoyed watching all your work
I just can't understand why he doesn't just get more butter😂😂😂
Brother, great job! You and your team! It's the next best thing after the LOTR, really. Thanks
Thank you UA-cam for recommending this genius! Subbed ❤
Welcome to the channel!
The Gollum mug lol. I love these
Elrond and the Picture of Bilbo hahaha nice one.
Love the shows! Can’t wait to see more of the LotR movies with Galdalf!
oh my god, I am so lucky to have stumbled onto this channel; this is the funniest content, i've ever seen... lol
6:35 "What the fuck? He doesn't even look like the same person!"
I'm at 2:08 and my cheeks already hurt and my stomach is tense from laughing so much. Agent smith with Gandalf is just to funny!
I'd have told I'm to f*** off 😂😂
Funniest video I've seen in a long time. Couldn't stop laughing at elronds facial expression on Bilbo's age and gandald constantly belittling sam.
Sam didn't really turn out that well but the rest is pure gold.
You don’t like taters? 🥔
I'd love to see Dumbledore and Snape
I used up all my annual leave by March too Mr. Boromir, sir. 9:47
I know it’s an internet cliche, but I genuinely choked on my tea at “bilbo bellend” 8:12
Thanks Charlie and if anyone on your team reads these comments, I appreciate you all individually!
It's been awhile since I laughed so much. Had me laughing the whole video. Omg this is going to be a great series
That was gold, please tell me you’ve got plenty more butter to spread and we will see the whole adventure like this
Plenty of butter, not enough bread as we speak
@@CharlieHopkinson
Is that a complaint about needing money? Lol.
At first I wasn't digging this, but I'm so glad I kept watching. Well done sir, well done. I just hope Sean Bean makes it through the whole trilogy...or is there going to be a force ghost crossover?!
The mic laid next to sam wisetator was a nice touch lol
3:36 hahaha He has become one with the Potato
Gandalf/Mithrandrir: The -gray- -white- 1 Week Tardy Wizard
👌🏾😂
Edit-
So that's where the two blue wizards are nowadays, Charlie has them working as his editors! 😂
the staff breaking was perfect
Gandalf is officially a disturber of the peace because he is a peeping Tom Bombadil.
"What a bilbobellend" 🤣🤣🤣 had me dying 🤣🤣
I'm so happy you're back.
Incredible could watch these all day 😂
I really need to see this scrabble game now
😂😂😂😂 this is soooooo GREAT I LOVE YOU for making this
And yes it was good weed indeed 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I had to stop this and go back so many times because I was laughing so hard I kept missing stuff. "I just don't understand why he doesn't just get more butter 🤨" I'm fucking dead
Wonderfully hilarious
Those Herman mueller chairs are fantastic. They are not cheap (there is also a very lively refurb market) but they are superb. I had back pains after all the sitting over pandemic etc and have found that these chairs really helped.
I can’t say enough good things about them, well worth paying the little bit more for the full posture adjustments. We have two as I bought one for my wife and then had to have one myself.
absolutely agree
When you realise this Parody Elrond is infinitely more accurate even in sattire than the supposedly canon version of Elrond by Amazon
OMG Charlie I’ve missed you!!
Love you so much Charlie ❤ stay well 😊
I absolutely LOVE your content!!!!
Thank you for adding another chapter to "There and Back Again.......and Again......and Again....."
Truly absurd in the best of ways. Peace
Laughed out loud numerous times! Love it mate.
I haven't laughed this much since... well, since the first Gandalf Watches video. Thanks for your effort!
Love the British Museum joke 👌🏻😂
This roasting was excellent!🤣
Absolute legend with these Gandalf reviews brother! 😂❤🏆 Definitely keep with it!
My major takeaway is I'm surprised Elrond and by extension Elves know of, and eat butter. I would not think that Elves would keep cows in pens to feed their dairy addiction or were they free range cows?
Hey Charlie. Can you do a bit where someone needs to charge their phone and make Sam into a battery.
Or… maybe like Sam wants to have a good idea so he tries to light a literal light bulb.
Idk. Something like that. You’re making gold all the time my friend. Thank you for these characters… it is really really amazing. Game of thrones, Star Wars, these guys… amazing
I am upset that I did not see this video THE MOMENT it came out!!!
🤣Go to Portland Oregon, every other house is a bloody Hobbit hole. 🤣
Right next to Portland (Lake Oswego), they've named streets after places from the books. You are not far off with your comment Mr Hopkinson.
This is one of the funniest scripts yet!
Getting the editor to dress like Gandalf, is just a perk of the job.
I paused SH A Game of Shadows because this makes me smile more than Robert Downey Jr.
Gandalf’s Mug 😂😂😂😂
Love this!! Lol
