Charles at The charity Leonard Cheshire Disability in 2010

Charles gave an award to producer Ash Atalla, producer of Trinity and others...the ceremony was hosted by actress Janie Dee at London Studios.
On set at Royal Holloway, a slightly oppressive architectural mixture of Hogwarts, Gormenghast and the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst, Charles Dance is addressing staff and pupils in a mocked-up dining hall. I ask him about his participation in an ITV2 teen drama. “What attracted me was the great elements of black comedy which I don’t often get the opportunity to do,” he says. “Also I was attracted by Ash Atalla, despite the fact that I think he is a rogue. He is a terrifically innovative producer.”
How Ash Atalla went from The office to Trinity:
"If this sounds unlikely, given that Trinity, a comedy-thriller set in a Moxbridge college, is populated by sex-crazed teenagers and firmly aimed at ITV2s 18-34 target audience, you need to know it is anchored by the authoritative presence of Charles Dance. Charles and I hit it off immediately when we met. We just talked about women for an hour. We were both having girlfriend problems at the time and he gave me some advice and I gave him some. A few weeks of kiss and chase and a nice lunch later Dance was on board. "

Charles is Lord Erroll in White mischief

White Mischief is a 1987 film directed by Michael Radford about the events of the Happy Valley murder case in Kenya in 1941...based on a book by the journalist James Fox....
 
"In the years between the first and second world wars, the more affluent British settlers in Kenya developed a lifestyle that became famous for its luxury and scandalous for its decadence. In their so-called Happy Valley, on the slopes of the Aberdare mountains where the climate was close to home, they built their ranches and villages, made a lot of money and tried to ignore the war clouds gathering over Europe. Some of them worked hard and most of them partied hard, and as war grew closer their detachment seemed more and more of a scandal.
Then, on the eve of war, the settlement was rocked by a murder that is still one of the most famous crimes of the British Empire. An older rancher, Sir Henry “Jock” Broughton (Joss Ackland), had returned from a trip to England with a wild young bride named Diana (Greta Scatchi). She had married for money, a fact Sir Henry had few illusions about, but what he did not expect was that she would so quickly flaunt her cynicism in the colony. She fell under the power of the handsome young earl of Erroll (Charles Dance), a shameless womanizer, and their affair scandalized the colony until the day of Jan. 24, 1941, when the earl was found shot dead in his car, not far from an exclusive club where he had last been seen with Diana."
Jock Broughton is a wealthy rancher who becomes taken with a young gold-digger named Diana . Even though he is fully aware of her reasons for doing so, the pair wed. Broughton falls on hard times and loses his fortune. The hedonistic Earl of Erroll (Charles Dance) realizes this change of fortune may make Diana more open to engaging in an affair. One evening, Erroll is found murdered. Broughton is tried for the crime
