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 KZread 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 KZreadr’ 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 KZread, 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)

All of human history is less relative time, than the lifespan of a fly, there is no such thing as old, or outdated because humankind has not existed long enough for such words to become meaningful. "Old person" is an oxymoronic phrase, from a species that does not even exist 1% of the lifespan of a single galaxy. Let a few trillion years of life pass by, before we even begin to think of any human as mature.

Twitter was a democrat propaganda outlet full of censorship of certain political bias. Banning the Republican candidate for President of the United States. Now renamed X, this is the last place anyone can go for access to information that isn't censored unless it's illegal or threatening, racist, or hate speech ( real hate speech. not what the CEO doesn't agree with or like). Elon Musk has stated that if you're not seeing content, posts, comments that you don't like, that's a good thing. When you see content, posts, comments and you agree with everything, that's not a good sign. Why did democrats used to love Elon Musk because he manufactures electric vehicles, but now don't like him at all. They're targeting him now that he bought Twitter and allows speech they don't agree with. They now call him dangerous and a threat because people can see information that is " misinformation." That's just a code word for conservative speech.
No mention of Godzilla Minus One? Boy and his Heron? Those were bright spots in 2023! More Japanese films in 2024!
Good point from a different comment. Stay away from politics it’s to divided. Make fun of everything else. But please take Harry and Megan back. Order 1776 has been deleted.
Just when we need Morgan the most. Thanks, Charlie. Look forward to seeing you next year.
2024 is gonna suck… insert Lord of the rings meme one simply doesn’t hope 2024 will be nice. It is election season.
Don't underestimate the foolishness of the humanity can possibly be , I don't have much faith on hoping it get better, only get equally or even worst.
I really admire the way you get Morgan Freeman to do these for you 😀
Thank you. Happy Holidays, Charlie.
Well, 'Morgan', you can shit in one hand, and hope into the other! Then see what you end up with! 🤣

The best Morgan Freeman roast was when he roasted a racist interviewer on how not to be racists. This fine gentleman don’t have time to be racist, he told this whippersnapper that he should stop talking about racism. Because the only way to stop racism is to stop talk about racism. Morgan Freeman is one bad ass non-racist sonofa.. well you get the idea.

Really good impression, but the northern Mississippi accent of his you haven't nailed. Seems like a generic soft southern accent with a speech impediment. Not as well nailed as Obiwan's, but still not as bad as Anakin. Although, Anakin does tend to be the funniest. Still great material non-the-less. Certainly better than I can do!
Dude, do better research before getting political. Twitter is doing fine. Trump is still on ballots and he didn't lose all his money. Stop using MSM as your main news source or atleast do your own fact checking.
