Craig Charles, standing at an exact 5ft 7 (170.2 cm), embodies a relatable everyman presence that defines his career in acting, comedy, and presenting. His compact stature enhances the slobbish charm of Dave Lister, the last human survivor in the sci-fi comedy Red Dwarf, making the character feel authentically grounded. On Coronation Street, as Lloyd Mullaney, his height adds to the approachable taxi driver persona. Charles leveraged his distinctive build when taking over as host of Robot Wars, bringing energetic flair to the mechanical battles. He has hosted The Craig Charles Funk and Soul Show on BBC Radio since 2002 and performs DJ sets worldwide, where his 5ft 7 frame commands stages with charismatic intensity.
