MINI BIO:
Dapper, round-faced, Welsh-born light actor in British films, with dark, boot-polish hair and a casual way with a funny line. Most successful in company with Basil Radford, with whom he was felicitously teamed in The Lady Vanishes. They became the archetypal cricket-loving Englishmen abroad, and made several more engaging films (and many radio serials) together before Radford's early death broke the partnership.

Naunton Wayne Quotes:
Charters:
If only we hadn't missed that train at Budapest.
Caldicott: Well, I don't want to rub it in, but if you hadn't insisted on standing up until they'd finished their national anthem...
Charters: Yes, but you must show respect, Caldicott. If I'd known it was going to last twenty minutes...
Caldicott: It has always been my contention that the Hungarian Rhapsody is *not* their national anthem.
Caldicott: [because the hotel is full, Charters and Caldicott have been forced to share the maid's room] They might at least have given us one each?
Charters: What?
Caldicott: The room at least.
Charters: I bought a copy of Mein Kampf. Occurred to me it might shed a spot of light on all this... how d'ye do. Ever read it?
Caldicott: Never had the time.
Charters: I understand they give a copy to all the bridal couples over here.
Caldicott: Oh, I don't think it's that sort of book, old man.
