+1, I met him in the Green Room at Sky TV (I was doing a telly interview for a Kids Cancer Charity I work With) and we got nattering, Russ Malkin was there too - Russ was a little shy, but Charley was making the brews and being genuinely nice - lovely guy.

Gotta make a living somehow!

And - if early reports are right - this goes to prove my theory, that cars are bloody dangerous, and he should have been on a bike!
