During his time on EastEnders, he was found in the midst of some vast storylines often relating to his daughters, including Kat's heartbreaking abuse from his brother Harry to being charged with GBH after defending Little Mo.

Charlie temporarily left Albert Square in 2011 but returned periodically until he suffered a fatal heart attack in 2016 during his final and emotional scenes that broke the nation's hearts.
