What Matt says about him:

Two words - Rushed and Posh "Don't you know his brother plays rugger with Prince Will! (wot wot)"

Charlie's only other job was being a model, well he was for about 4 days until he grew impatient with it. Have I mentioned how impatient he is? He also is petrified of anything fish like in any way, even the smell can make him wanna chuck. Apparently it's because of there "Gulpy faces". Charlie is a true "Legend" and I've never known someone with so much knowledge of rock music. If anyone wants to get him a present, anything "Nickelback" would be very much appreciated, he'll love that. Charlie is a cool guy who loves long walks and the country road.

What James says about him:

Two words to describe Charlie are:
1. Impatient
2. Clumsy

If he is not spilling orange juice over the television, he is on the phone booking driving lessons into every last minute of his spare time, as he is in a mad rush to start driving!

However, he is undisputedly the best drummer I've seen in real life, and his favourite band are the Deftones. Charlie has been playing in bands since the age of eleven, and plays drums, bass, guitar, and piano to a good standard.

Charlie has many habits which I've learnt to get used to after three months of living with him. One of them is leaving finished cereal around the house with the left overs dried up and stuck to the inside of the bowl. This is "absolutely rancid" as he would describe it anyway!

Another one of Charlie's weird habits is that he adds "age" on the end of certain words, such as "mate". This has proved to be infectious as we now greet each other by saying "Ahh matage, what's up?".

He is by far the best spoken member of the band and continues to live up to his squeaky clean public school boy image. Oh, and he hates fish! SHOCKER!!!
