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 KZbin 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 KZbinr’ 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 KZbin, 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)

[@alastairstock118]

Just bc that's what he and the council now doesn't mean it's true? Think about how many jedi there were then and how TPM only tells a story from the perspective of a few characters in the whole skywalker arc.

[@MannequinMonarch]

@@alastairstock118 Yup. Another thing is, who’s to say the Jedi weren’t a little sketchier than they’d admit? What if they’d cover up everything they witnessed here in Acolyte, hid it from the public? After all, the only Jedi that should be alive from this time to Phantom Menace are Yoda and Yaddle. None the less the fact that the Jedi seen in this show could be killed before they give a proper report. Plus, these darksiders although most likely Sith do not have to be Sith. Just because someone bleeds their Crystal doesn’t mean they inherently have to be a Sith, just look at Dagan Gera, he chose to bleed his crystal during Jedi: Survivor, but he were no Sith. I dunno, I feel there can be a lot of explanations, none the less the idea that a lot of the Jedi by the time of Phantom Menace could just be unaware of this whole ordeal’s details.

[@user-xx6vy9ri8p]

@@justinhammer3196 Where was it ever stated that the Emperor wasn't a Sith? And what's the diference between a sith and a dark jedi anyway?

[@kingsmithgaming8726]

​@@user-xx6vy9ri8p Dark jedi are jedi who fell to the dark side but didn't join the Sith religion. Like Barriss Offee and Baylan Skoll. Sith is a religion that focuses on the dark side, but they don't own feelings of hate, fear, and pain.

[@MannequinMonarch]

@@user-xx6vy9ri8p As another has stated, to elaborate, Sith have a code and set of beliefs, religion they have to follow essentially. A dark Jedi is simply a Jedi who fell to the dark, who does not follow any of the given beliefs or codes. Iirc a Dark Jedi can also just be a darkside user generalized, though not sure on that. Otherwise, it’s in the same vain as say the Nightsisters or Knights of Ren, they are darkside users, but they are not inherently Sith as they follow different codes, beliefs, and religions.

“The Force’s dad.?” I love how it’s a statement and a question at the same time and both are totally appropriate.

[@badonkeykong7506]

A 100 years before A New Hope Yoda was still a Grandmaster, you'd have to go back about 800 years to reach a time before he was Grandmaster. There happened to be 3 Grandmasters during the High Republic Era, it's a rank to be achieved, not a position to fill.

[@UKStudiosNE]

It’s funny how Star Wars went from being so diverse in population during the high republic era but once the empire hit everyone suddenly became English and a few Americans 😂😂😂

[@person_guy3505]

Actually, in Star Wars Rebels, we see at the imperial academy that almost all the recruits have American accents, meaning that they DO take classes on having English accents. I did steal that joke from Killian Experience, but I still headcanon it.

[@Stegibbon]

Actually in England we're all born with American accents but we're brought up to be evil and imperial so it turns that way.

[@nightmarezero8465]

​@person_guy3505 actually star wars rebels doesn't exist to most fans. ZZZ. Crappy Disney star wars zzzzz

[@person_guy3505]

@nightmarezero8465 I mean, in terms of Disney star wars, Rebels is actually pretty good. Sure it drags at times, but overall its a pretty good show. Still made by the same team that did clone wars, so the only real difference was the company overhead. Disney's done plenty of awful things with Star wars, but just blanket calling everything they put out bad seems a bit narrow-minded to me.

[@maxtracker2904]

There’s probably some Legends reason for it. Like how Palpatine’s dislike of aliens accounts for their absence on imperial ships. Probably he had a thing for accents too. I like the idea that everyone is trained in BBC English at the academy 😂

[@kevinramsey417]

There are three types of sea otter. Guardian, Consular and Sentinel. Guardians are focused mainly on lightsaber combat and have blue lightsabers (Obi-Wan, Anakin), Consulars' focus is on use of the Force, their lightsabers are green (Yoda, Qui-Gon) and Sentinels are trained to seek out and destroy the dark side and the sea otters that use it. Their lightsabers are yellow. Sea! Otters! Always win! Sea Otters always win!
