Current projects include an adaptation of the stage play "On The Same Side" for television, and the development of various game shows and reality shows which are regularly "fed in" to the system, and are under consideration by various independent production companies as co-productions.

The major project which is being discussed is a new situation comedy series, which has engendered a good deal of interest.

Charles is also closely involved with TAPS - a charitable organisation for writers in film and television. Charles assists Jill James in the running of The Comedy Writer's Workshop and Showcase Festival. The next occasion to take part in a TAPS comedy workshop is JULY 29th 2009. But hurry, places will be allocated on a "first come first served" basis for the first time, rather than by submission of a sample script.
