Charles Hawtrey Tells How He Was Mistaken for a Friend
Charles Hawtrey recalls a stunt in London where De Wolf Hopper staged a burlesque of him and Mrs Langtry. Hawtrey dressed in the part to imitate Hopper, creating laughter but losing his own identity. The London Times commented on the strong resemblance, noting an American accent. The anecdote ends with Hawtrey’s quip about never being accused of a twang again.
