Charles Aitken in "Bonkers"

Charles Aitken was born in England but grew up in America. He studied History at Duke University, obtaining his Bachelor of Arts degree in 2001. Whilst at university he joined their drama group the Dukes Players and, after graduating, he played the lead in musical productions with several American regional theaters. Charles returned to England to study drama at London's Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts, graduating in 2004. Within a year he was in the West End, playing Claude, the male lead, in a revival of 'Hair'. In 2006 he received critical praise for his roles as the Son of God in Oxford Playhouse's touring version of 'Paradise Lost' and as Joe Buck in a stage adaptation of 'Midnight Cowboy' at the Edinburgh Festival. British television viewers were to see lots more of him in February 2007 when he made his TV debut in the fantasy-comedy serial 'Bonkers' where he spent all of the first episode in the nude as a sex-obsessed teenager unable to stop himself from bedding every woman he meets.


Bonkers is a UK television series written by Sally Wainwright and starring Liza Tarbuck. It was transmitted on ITV during 2007. It was also released on DVD. This series is available on DVD, distributed by Acorn Media UK.


In July 2007, the playwright and actress Tricia Walsh-Smith filed a claim in the High Court for breach of copyright, claiming that the pilot episode was copied from her 1987 play, also called "Bonkers".

UK actor Charles Aitken played Tim Barker on the British TV series 'Bonkers'. Here he is doing the old "caught in the act" without any clothes
