English actor, best known for playing Marcus Dent in soap opera Coronation Street. In 2014 on
twitter he claimed to stand tall at
"5'8" EXACTLY !", although in 2016 he gave himself an extra half inch:
"I'm 5'8" and a half".

I'd love to see Charlie return to the Soap some time! 😄👌
Five eight.

I wonder if it worries him that at 5ft 8in he is at the very bottom of what many consider 'average range' and if he shrinks a bit as he ages, he will move into the 'short range'. I've always found it a bit odd that a man of 5ft 7.5in would be described as short but a man just half an inch taller would be in the 'average zone'. I suppose the cut off point with these arbitrary classifications has to be somewhere though.

I miss Charlie from 'Coronation Street' and I hope he comes back soon!
I believe he is in another programme, but I don't know which one it is!
I see his 5ft8 entry to seem pretty accurate, so that's what he gets from me.

Is a tall face a thing? I have never thought about it, out of interest Arch what other average or short guys would you consider being facially tall?
Alistair Stewart, Humphrey Bogart, Josh Brolin, Eric Mabius, Tico Torres, Mark Cavendish etc. Yes, guys who are average or even short and you'd expect to be tall.

Another guy with a "tall face", facially you'd think at least 6 ft.

I always thought he looked a low 5'8 on Corrie.

he's not the first to discover they are taller in the morning...
