The character we love to hate Miss Trunchball (from Matilda) Who wouldn’t be frightened of a day in the Chokey ?

Matilda, an amazing little girl who manages to blossom in spite of bullying and neglect.

Danny the Champion of the World, he's a Robin Hood type hero, getting one over on the snobby local squire.

Coogill Tue 11-Sept-18 09:46:40

Charlie from Charlie and the chocolate factory because he always helps his family

happysouls Tue 11-Sept-18 08:43:04

Charlie (of the chocolate factory!). I understand his yearning for chocolate and how even though he is good he isn't perfect...temptation overcomes him a couple of times!

pamelaJEAN Tue 11-Sept-18 08:21:17

Grandpa Joe from Charlie and the Chocolate factory, reminds me of my grandson and grandpa , my hubby has not been well for many years , but supports our little grandson in everything he does, and my grandson looks so much like my hubby a proper mini me (grandpa).

Fuzzyclare Tue 11-Sept-18 08:18:45

Fantastic Mr Fox - he’s cheeky like me!

mbody Tue 11-Sept-18 08:07:11
