Charlie was clearly the worse for wear in this very rare interview from around 1984, which has been heavily edited by the broadcaster due to the Carry On star's drunken behaviour.
The interview is therefore very short and sweet.
The star, best known for his Carry On roles, was probably the closest thing England had to John Wayne.

Charles Hawtrey after his house was set on fire in August 1984.
According to Wes Butters biography the house was set on fire by a 16 year old rent boy when Hawtrey refused to pay him.
At the time of the fire Hawtrey had been an alcoholic for many years and evidently was not a nice bloke, if he ever was.
Nonetheless he was excellent in the Carry On films and I think a distinction should be made between someone's talent and character.

Who is Charles Hawtrey
George Frederick Joffre Hartree (30 November 1914 – 27 October 1988), known as Charles Hawtrey, was an English comedy actor and musician.
Beginning at a young age as a boy soprano, he made several records before moving on to the radio. His later career encompassed the theatre (as both actor and director), the cinema (where he regularly appeared supporting Will Hay in the 1930s and '40s in films such as The Ghost of St. Michael's), through the Carry On films, and television.
Born in Hounslow, Middlesex, England in 1914, to William John Hartree and his wife Alice Hartree née Crow as George Frederick Joffre Hartree, he took his stage name from the theatrical knight, Sir Charles Hawtrey, and encouraged the suggestion that he was his son. However, his father was actually a London car mechanic.
Following study at the Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts in London, he embarked on a career in the theatre as both actor and director.
By the 1940s, Hawtrey was appearing on radio during Children's Hour in the Norman and Henry Bones, the Boy Detectives series alongside the actress Patricia Hayes (first broadcast in 1943). Later he also played the voice of snooty Hubert Lane, the nemesis of William in the Just William series. His catchphrase was "How's yer mother off for dripping?" Hawtrey's film career continued, but The Ghost of St. Michael's (1941) and The Goose Steps Out (1942) were his last films with Will Hay. After the latter film he asked Hay to give him a bigger role, which Hay refused.
Hawtrey also took a hand at directing films himself, including What Do We Do Now? (1945) a musical-mystery written by the English author George Cooper, and starring George Moon. Around the same time, Hawtrey directed the British actress Dame Flora Robson in Dumb Dora Discovers Tobacco (1946). Both films are believed lost.
In Our House (1960–62), Hawtrey played the character of council official Simon Willow. The series was created by Norman Hudis, the screenwriter for the first six Carry On films. In the opening episode ('Moving into Our House') two couples and five individuals meet at an estate agent's and realise that if they pool their resources they can buy a house big enough to accommodate them all. Hattie Jacques as librarian Georgina Ruddy, who was forced to keep quiet at work and so made up for it by being extremely noisy at home, was arguably the star of the series. Joan Sims starred as the unemployable Daisy Burke.
The series initially ran for 13 episodes from September to December 1960, returning the following year with Bernard Bresslaw and Hylda Baker as Henrietta added to the cast. Of the 39 episodes transmitted, only three survive today
By this time, he had become a regular participant in the Carry On films series. Hawtrey was in the first entry, Carry On Sergeant (1958), and more than 20 of the subsequent films. Hawtrey's characters ranged from the wimpish through the effete to the effeminate.
His last film was Carry On Abroad (1972), after which he was dropped from the series. The last straw occurred in 1972 when, in a bid to finally gain higher billing, Hawtrey withdrew from a Carry On Christmas television programme in which he was scheduled to appear, giving just a few days' notice for his absence and despite appearing in promotional material. After this, producer Peter Rogers stopped using him for Carry On roles. Rogers explained: "He became rather difficult and impossible to deal with because he was drinking a lot. We used to feed him black coffee before he would go on. It really became that we were wasting time." Hawtrey's alcohol consumption had noticeably increased since Carry On Cowboy (1965), which was released in the year his mother died.
On the 24th of October 1988 Hawtrey collapsed in the doorway of the Royal hotel in Deal.He shattered his femur and was rushed in an ambulance to the Buckland hospital in Dover. He was discovered to be suffering from peripheral vascular disease, a condition of the arteries brought on by a lifetime of heavy smoking. Hawtrey was told that to save his life, his legs would have to be amputated. He refused, allegedly saying he preferred to die with his boots on, and died later in the month, aged 73, in a Walmer, Kent nursing home, near Deal. On his deathbed, Hawtrey supposedly threw a vase at his nurse who asked for an autograph[19] – it was the last thing he did. His ashes were scattered in Mortlake Crematorium, close to Chiswick in London; no friends or family attended

Network DVD is delighted to announce the first ever DVD release of the cult childrens comedy SUPERGRAN - THE COMPLETE FIRST SERIES (PG), available in a 2-disc set on 10th August 2009, RRP £19.99.
Granny Smith (Gudrun Ure) is a sweet old lady living a sedate life in the Scottish coastal town of Chisleton. One day, she is accidentally struck by a stray beam from Inventor Blacks magic ray machine and transformed into Supergran - the possessor of amazing powers, super-human strength, and even a magic flycycle! She puts these to great use in the fight against Chisletons local villain, The Scunner Campbell, and his unpleasant cohorts, Dustin and Muscles; with Supergrans miraculous abilities, however, defeating the baddies is not usually too much of a challenge!
Alongside regular cast members Iain Cuthbertson and Bill Shine, Supergran also features an array of guest stars including George Best, Lulu, Spike Milligan, Patrick Troughton, Charles Hawtrey and champion strongman Geoff Capes; the shows catchy theme song, performed by Billy Connolly, helped to ensure that it remained firmly in viewers memories long after it was first broadcast. This complete first series of Supergran was originally aired on ITV in 1985.

Carry On (franchise)
The Carry On franchise primarily consists of a sequence of 31 low-budget British comedy motion pictures (1958–92), four Christmas specials, a television series of thirteen episodes, and three West End and provincial stage plays. The films' humour was in the British comic tradition of the music hall and bawdy seaside postcards. Producer Peter Rogers and director Gerald Thomas drew on a regular group of actors, the Carry On team, that included Sidney James, Kenneth Williams, Charles Hawtrey, Joan Sims, Kenneth Connor, Peter Butterworth, Hattie Jacques, Terry Scott, Bernard Bresslaw, Barbara Windsor, Jack Douglas and Jim Dale.
The Carry On series contains the largest number of films of any British series; and, next to the James Bond films, it is the second-longest continually running UK film series although with a fourteen-year break (1978–92). Anglo Amalgamated Film Distributors Ltd produced twelve films (1958–66), and the Rank Organisation made the remaining nineteen (1967–92).

Charles
Charles is a masculine given name from the French form Charles of a Germanic name Karl. The original Anglo-Saxon was Ċearl or Ċeorl, as the name of king Cearl of Mercia, that disappeared after the Norman conquest of England.
The corresponding Old Norse form is Karl, the German form is also Karl. The name was notably borne by Charlemagne (Charles the Great), and was at the time Latinized as Karolus (as in Vita Karoli Magni), later also as Carolus.
Etymology
The name's etymology is a Common Germanic noun *karlaz meaning "free man", which survives in English as churl (< Old English ċeorl), which developed its deprecating sense in the Middle English period.
In the form Charles, the initial spelling ch- corresponds to the palatalization of the Latin group ca- to [tʃa] in Central Old French (Francien) and the final -s to the former subjective case (cas sujet) of masculine names in Old French like in Giles or James (< Latin -us, see Spanish/ Portuguese Carlos).
According to Julius Pokorny, the historical linguist and Indo-Europeanist, the root meaning of Karl is "old man", from Indo-European *ĝer-, where the ĝ is a palatal consonant, meaning "to rub; to be old; grain." An old man has been worn away and is now grey with age.

Directed by: Michael Cort Stars: James Robertson Justice, Charles Hawtrey, Robin Hawdon
'Charles Hawtrey' is featured as a movie character in the following productions:
Kenneth Williams: Fantabulosa! (2006)
Actors: Peter Wight (actor), Nicholas Parsons (actor), Terry Wogan (actor), Kenneth Williams (writer), Kenneth Williams (actor), Michael Sheen (actor), Michael Parkinson (actor), Ron Cook (actor), Richard Fell (producer), Martin Trenaman (actor), Penny Dyer (miscellaneous crew), Guy Henry (actor), Stephen O'Connell (editor), Roy Holder (actor), Shaughan Seymour (actor),
Plot: Finicky,hygiene-obsessed comic actor Kenneth Williams,living in a flat block with mutually adoring mother Louie,looks back on his life. At loggerheads with his homophobic father over his career Kenny fulfils his dream of becoming a classical actor but is spun off into comedy,allowing full rein to his crowd-pleasing array of funny voices. A compulsive,often selfish performer off-screen,he becomes a national treasure following the radio show 'Round the Horne' and the successful series of film farces 'Carry On'... though he is disdainful of the latter,given that he once trod the boards with Orson Welles. Privately he is a tormented closet gay,sickened by his sexuality,unlike his friend,promiscuous playwright Joe Orton,and desperately asks his 'Carry On' co-star Joan Sims for a show marriage,which she refuses. Ultimately Louie's death,his own hypochondria,a down turn in work and a sense of his own isolation will result in a fatal encounter with a bottle of tablets in 1988.

Charles Hawtrey after his house was set on fire in August 1984.
According to Wes Butters biography the house was set on fire by a 16 year old rent boy when Hawtrey refused to pay him.
At the time of the fire Hawtrey had been an alcoholic for many years and evidently was not a nice bloke, if he ever was.
Nonetheless he was excellent in the Carry On films and I think a distinction should be made between someone's talent and character.

Who is Charles Hawtrey
George Frederick Joffre Hartree (30 November 1914 – 27 October 1988), known as Charles Hawtrey, was an English comedy actor and musician.
Beginning at a young age as a boy soprano, he made several records before moving on to the radio. His later career encompassed the theatre (as both actor and director), the cinema (where he regularly appeared supporting Will Hay in the 1930s and '40s in films such as The Ghost of St. Michael's), through the Carry On films, and television.
Born in Hounslow, Middlesex, England in 1914, to William John Hartree and his wife Alice Hartree née Crow as George Frederick Joffre Hartree, he took his stage name from the theatrical knight, Sir Charles Hawtrey, and encouraged the suggestion that he was his son. However, his father was actually a London car mechanic.
Following study at the Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts in London, he embarked on a career in the theatre as both actor and director.
By the 1940s, Hawtrey was appearing on radio during Children's Hour in the Norman and Henry Bones, the Boy Detectives series alongside the actress Patricia Hayes (first broadcast in 1943). Later he also played the voice of snooty Hubert Lane, the nemesis of William in the Just William series. His catchphrase was "How's yer mother off for dripping?" Hawtrey's film career continued, but The Ghost of St. Michael's (1941) and The Goose Steps Out (1942) were his last films with Will Hay. After the latter film he asked Hay to give him a bigger role, which Hay refused.
Hawtrey also took a hand at directing films himself, including What Do We Do Now? (1945) a musical-mystery written by the English author George Cooper, and starring George Moon. Around the same time, Hawtrey directed the British actress Dame Flora Robson in Dumb Dora Discovers Tobacco (1946). Both films are believed lost.
In Our House (1960–62), Hawtrey played the character of council official Simon Willow. The series was created by Norman Hudis, the screenwriter for the first six Carry On films. In the opening episode ('Moving into Our House') two couples and five individuals meet at an estate agent's and realise that if they pool their resources they can buy a house big enough to accommodate them all. Hattie Jacques as librarian Georgina Ruddy, who was forced to keep quiet at work and so made up for it by being extremely noisy at home, was arguably the star of the series. Joan Sims starred as the unemployable Daisy Burke.
The series initially ran for 13 episodes from September to December 1960, returning the following year with Bernard Bresslaw and Hylda Baker as Henrietta added to the cast. Of the 39 episodes transmitted, only three survive today
By this time, he had become a regular participant in the Carry On films series. Hawtrey was in the first entry, Carry On Sergeant (1958), and more than 20 of the subsequent films. Hawtrey's characters ranged from the wimpish through the effete to the effeminate.
His last film was Carry On Abroad (1972), after which he was dropped from the series. The last straw occurred in 1972 when, in a bid to finally gain higher billing, Hawtrey withdrew from a Carry On Christmas television programme in which he was scheduled to appear, giving just a few days' notice for his absence and despite appearing in promotional material. After this, producer Peter Rogers stopped using him for Carry On roles. Rogers explained: "He became rather difficult and impossible to deal with because he was drinking a lot. We used to feed him black coffee before he would go on. It really became that we were wasting time." Hawtrey's alcohol consumption had noticeably increased since Carry On Cowboy (1965), which was released in the year his mother died.
On the 24th of October 1988 Hawtrey collapsed in the doorway of the Royal hotel in Deal.He shattered his femur and was rushed in an ambulance to the Buckland hospital in Dover. He was discovered to be suffering from peripheral vascular disease, a condition of the arteries brought on by a lifetime of heavy smoking. Hawtrey was told that to save his life, his legs would have to be amputated. He refused, allegedly saying he preferred to die with his boots on, and died later in the month, aged 73, in a Walmer, Kent nursing home, near Deal. On his deathbed, Hawtrey supposedly threw a vase at his nurse who asked for an autograph[19] – it was the last thing he did. His ashes were scattered in Mortlake Crematorium, close to Chiswick in London; no friends or family attended

Network DVD is delighted to announce the first ever DVD release of the cult childrens comedy SUPERGRAN - THE COMPLETE FIRST SERIES (PG), available in a 2-disc set on 10th August 2009, RRP £19.99.
Granny Smith (Gudrun Ure) is a sweet old lady living a sedate life in the Scottish coastal town of Chisleton. One day, she is accidentally struck by a stray beam from Inventor Blacks magic ray machine and transformed into Supergran - the possessor of amazing powers, super-human strength, and even a magic flycycle! She puts these to great use in the fight against Chisletons local villain, The Scunner Campbell, and his unpleasant cohorts, Dustin and Muscles; with Supergrans miraculous abilities, however, defeating the baddies is not usually too much of a challenge!
Alongside regular cast members Iain Cuthbertson and Bill Shine, Supergran also features an array of guest stars including George Best, Lulu, Spike Milligan, Patrick Troughton, Charles Hawtrey and champion strongman Geoff Capes; the shows catchy theme song, performed by Billy Connolly, helped to ensure that it remained firmly in viewers memories long after it was first broadcast. This complete first series of Supergran was originally aired on ITV in 1985.

Network DVD is delighted to announce the first ever DVD release of the cult childrens comedy SUPERGRAN - THE COMPLETE FIRST SERIES (PG), available in a 2-disc set on 10th August 2009, RRP £19.99.
Granny Smith (Gudrun Ure) is a sweet old lady living a sedate life in the Scottish coastal town of Chisleton. One day, she is accidentally struck by a stray beam from Inventor Blacks magic ray machine and transformed into Supergran - the possessor of amazing powers, super-human strength, and even a magic flycycle! She puts these to great use in the fight against Chisletons local villain, The Scunner Campbell, and his unpleasant cohorts, Dustin and Muscles; with Supergrans miraculous abilities, however, defeating the baddies is not usually too much of a challenge!
Alongside regular cast members Iain Cuthbertson and Bill Shine, Supergran also features an array of guest stars including George Best, Lulu, Spike Milligan, Patrick Troughton, Charles Hawtrey and champion strongman Geoff Capes; the shows catchy theme song, performed by Billy Connolly, helped to ensure that it remained firmly in viewers memories long after it was first broadcast. This complete first series of Supergran was originally aired on ITV in 1985.

An attempt by English conservative Catholics to set up a quasi Traditional Catholic school in rural France. The people in charge are lovable eccentrics who are ill equipped to deal with a couple of unpleasant child boarders. It ends up in a documentary reminiscent of a Will Hay farce. I kept on expecting Charles Hawtrey to turn up. Comedy gold!
