Actionmage November 15, 2014 Share November 15, 2014 Do you have some ideas about our favorite eternal cabbie, Chas? He's played by Charles Halford. Just when we start to get a bit of an idea about Chas, TPTB keep him out of the next episode! I am looking forward to getting to know more about him. Link to comment
cyan November 16, 2014 Share November 16, 2014 I want a Chas. Does anyone have an extra Chas? 2 Link to comment
Actionmage November 22, 2014 Author Share November 22, 2014 As I said elsewhere, I loved Chas in the latest episode. He was willing to face down a murderous spirit, more than once! That he keeps taking hits and seems relatively nonplussed is amazing. I want to know more about how Chas and John found each other, because Chas doesn't sound like he's an ex-pat to me. Chas is one of my favorite new characters of the season to date! 1 Link to comment
Bruinsfan December 8, 2014 Share December 8, 2014 (edited) It's a departure from the comics, but I'm glad Chas isn't a half-witted sad sack who's constantly being ordered around by John. This version seems to have chosen the fight against Evil of his own free will, with a good idea of what he's getting himself into. Edited December 8, 2014 by Bruinsfan 1 Link to comment
JayKay December 8, 2014 Share December 8, 2014 Chas is my favorite. Him asking the "Do you think I'm pretty?" spirit questions made me laugh as hard as as any sitcom could. He's just so grounded and likable. 1 Link to comment
cyan December 10, 2014 Share December 10, 2014 (edited) (Bruinsfan! Hi! You may or may not remember me as 'random') Yeah, series Chas is actually half-way interesting. And a nice opposite set of character traits to play off John: calm, thoughtful, capable of sequential reasoning and planning, vs. intense, excitable, lethally non-linear and normality-avoidant.

Aunty Sharon January 7, 2015 Share January 7, 2015 Nope, sorry, I cannot accept this version of Chas. He is my absolute favourite character from the comic books, I even have original comic-art from the Chase spin off, and this guy is nothing like him. I want him trying to avoid the supernatural (even those he has the most bonkers backstory out of everyone), I want him growling at John, moaning about the constant lifts he has to give John, (my fav Chas line from the comics is "Get in the cab you freeloading wanker!". I want Renee (pronounced Ree-nee because she's an Eastender!). I just want my Chas and I'm not getting him :( If this bloke was called Dave or Nathan, he'd be fine, but he's too easy-going, too willing, and I'm really not getting the years-old friendship that I expected. 1 Link to comment
