Charlie Haylock is one of Suffolk's leading entertainers. His informative and hilarious one-man shows are legendary in the county and his books have all been best sellers.

Charlie can reduce audiences to tears of laughter with his story telling as anyone who has seen his show "An Eccentric Look At Suffolk" will tell you. But he has a serious side and also gives highly informative talks about the history of the English language and has a unique understanding of why Australians talk the way they do!

This website has been created to help you find out where Charlie is performing, to contact him if you want him to come and perform at one of your events, and generally to let you know what he is up to!

 

Exciting news! Charlie is back and this time, you can hear him!

Charlie's first book, "Sloightly On Th'Huh" outsold Dan Brown's famous novel, The Da Vinci Code in Suffolk. But however good it is, a book on dialect that you can't hear is a bit like a volume on Leonardo without pictures!

Charlie has joined forces with Suffolk's premiere "Dialect on Disc" publisher, Sounding Board Productions to make a truly unique CD that combines autobiography, social observation, language history and of course, classic Suffolk story telling! And if you've ever wondered why Australians talk the way they do, Charlie, who is a mimic of rare genius, demonstrates why. It is rare that a lesson in linguistics is also great comedy!

For more details of the CD, and to hear an extract, check out this link.

The East Anglian Daily Times devoted three pages for Charlie, which you can read here!
