Obi & Gandalf LOSE IT watching 'LOTR with Lightsabers'

Get a lightsaber from the videos:

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 Youtube 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 Youtuber’ 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 YouTube, 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)

Jack Sparrow (Pirates of the Carribean)
Christoph Waltz (Django Unchained, Inglorious bastards)
Alec Guiness (Ben Kenobi – Star Wars)
Agent Smith (The Matrix)

Imagine when they find out that Sarumaun and Count Dooku look eerily similar…

[GirrionSpellbane]

"Probably a good idea that your younglings can defend themselves" i died.🤣😂

[raffaeleperniola]

Obi-Wan doing the Qui Gon-going-through-a-door noises in Qui‘s absence was great. Way to show respect to his master.

[MetallicBlaize]

Okay I have to say, Gandalf igniting a lightsaber whilst falling towards the Balrog to Duel of the Fates is one of the most metal things I've ever seen.

[lachezarbarovski]

Dude... Your deepfake... Your freaking voce over talent... Your sense of humor... It's just another level of 4th wall breaking entertainment. Big big fan of your channel!

[dizehjvegnomis]

"what does it mean when they glow green?"
"they're jealous of people with the cool blue ones"
🤣

[michaelmorton]

Obi-Wan is drinking from Gandalf's Gollum mug. Gandalf is drinking from Obi-Wan's Vader mug. Epic cultural exchange!

[mysticxiiii]

Gandalf diving after the Balrog to duel of the fates is crucial. Absolutely necessary for continued living.

[jordinagel]

“How was I supposed to know that? I’ve never had a girlfriend!”
Wow, Satine must be rolling in her grave

[ImmortalCrow]

"If I didn't know any better, I'd say your a Sith." 8:08 Gandalf ignites two red saber staffs while in a dark cloak. That twist ending had me laughing in tears.😂🤣

[Mark-nhhs]

Love it 😂 the banter between Gandalf and Obi is true comedy gold

[vardamir]

That ending was perfect. Perfect I say. Give this man an oscar already.

“The only thing that stops a bad guy with a lightsaber is a good guy with a lightsaber!”

[charlesjmouse]

"Who are you calling 'Scruffy looking'?" Delicious!

[jaminoes_]

How is Charlie still under a million subscribers is beyond me. Must be the work of Sith Lords.

[EMCeezy]

This has become legit the funniest shit on YouTube! Charlie smashes it every time

[jamesbrealg]

Obi saying 'nice' to gandalfs move on the bridge, and gandalfs appreciation, smile and little nose snort, was surprisingly wholesome

[phillipjansenvanvuuren]

Gandalf trying to light his pipe with a LS had me 🤣🤣🤣

[Andrew-zqip]

So heartwarming to see Obi impressed by Gandolf's antics.
