Do you think he was evil or just misunderstood?

What he did to Shelley was evil - ripping her earrings from her ears and tearing them, humiliating her with the public weigh in, manipulating her and making her dependent on him and too scared to face the world.........

I will never forget that ear scene, i found it really chilling, and all too real for me.

I found him intriguing- he was vile to shelley but on the other hand he saved Sunita from a fire and helped Roy when we was being bullied

The writers should have delved more into his background as to why he was the way he was- very interesting character IMO

Plus sexy as hell

I can't really remember but he was some bloke working on the street briefly and he was really cruel to roy over a few episodes- charlie beat the crap out of him and warned him off which showed a different side to him IMO

charlie was a great character and I wish he hadnt been killed off

Although could you argue that Charlie was protecting his image of being Shelley's protector/live saver/do gooder etc by showing he was heroic and would help others - sunita, roy etc. That way, they get the idea he's a good guy and go along with his subtle take over of Shelley and don't realize they;ve been sucked along?

The guy was called Vince and had gone to school with Roy.

Corrie must hate builders
Look at the awful Owen, I did think Charlie was quite attractive, but Owen is just creepy.

I agree, his head looks too big for his body.

The guy who played the bully appeared as a different character in the show back in 1999/2000.

Yeah, he's growing on me. I like how bewildered he suddenly looks when his control-freakery touch temporarily deserts him.

I thought he let Eileen off way to lightly, plus I thought they might make him and Jason friends... but he doesn't seem to like him much.

I am confused... is Owen Armstrong the new bad guy or not as the actor said in the interview that he wouldn't be the bad guy... so it is David Platt and Chris Gray then?
