5 Roald Dahl Characters

6 Charlie bucket Charlie Bucket lives in England with his parents and four grandparents in the town that is home to Willy Wonka's chocolate factory. He is the fifth to find one of Willy Wonka's golden tickets and the last one left on the tour after the other four children are expelled. In the original novel, Charlie is particularly quiet throughout the novel, only usually speaking to his Grandpa Joe, his parents, or to Wonka, and is very concerned about the other children, both before and after they are removed by the Oompa-Loompas (small men that work with Wonka) from the factory. He is wise in a small way, albeit excitable and good- humoured. He shows great strength of character; when the family begins to starve because Mr. Bucket becomes redundant, Charlie refuses to take the portions his family are willing to go without with in order to feed him.

7 Willy Wonka Willy Wonka is the son of dentist Dr. Wilbur Wonka. Wonka had a traumatic childhood, as his father locked him into dreadful orthodontics that bore more resemblance to a medieval torture device, and every Halloween, he would burn his son's candy in the fireplace. Eventually, Willy tastes chocolate after sneaking a piece from the fire, and starts getting ideas for other candies. When he becomes an adult, Wonka opens his own candy store, with Grandpa Joe being one of Wonka's first employees. Then Wonka's rival Mr. Slugworth steals Wonka's recipes and Wonka became very concerned about what Slugworth did to Wonka and he closed his factory forever. Wonka initially refuses to allow Charlie to bring his family to his factory. An eventual reconciliation between Wonka and his father causes Wonka to change his mind and allow Charlie's family to move in with him as well. At this point, it is revealed that Dr. Wonka, despite his dislike of candy, came to greatly admire Willy while he was away, and made a habit of collecting and framing newspaper articles about Willy's great success in the chocolatier industry along the years.

8 Augustus Gloop In the original novel, Augustus is described as an enormous boy who has "fat bulging from every fold, with two greedy eyes peering out of his doughball of a head." His mother encourages his eating habits, saying that eating is his hobby, and that his habits are better than him being "a hooligan." She is blissfully unaware of the results of unhealthy eating, thinking that Augustus wouldn’t eat if he didn’t need to. Little else is revealed of Augustus' personality and his mother does all the talking to the reporters. Augustus' hometown celebrates his Golden Ticket discovery with a public holiday and parade, suggesting that the Gloop family is very popular where they live.

9 Violet Beauregarde Violet Beauregarde is the third of the five children to find one of Willy Wonka's elusive Golden Tickets, and the second to be kicked off the tour. She exhibits a more competitive spirit than the four other ticket winners. She is greatly expanded to include her participation in sports and martial arts. Violet is also a notoriously relentless and competitive gum chewer, though she temporarily curbed her habit in order to focus on Wonka Bars and search for the ticket.

10 Mike Teavee In every version, Mike loves violence and pays little attention to what is going on around him when the TV is on. Ironically, in all versions he is also the most questioning and incredulous of some of the bizarre elements of Willy Wonka's factory.

11 Veruca Salt Veruca, the spoiled and greedy only daughter of the wealthy Henry and Angina Salt, regularly exerts petulant behaviour in order to get what she desires. When Veruca demands that she must have a Golden Ticket, her father buys 75,000 cases of Wonka Bars, and orders his factory workers to put aside their regular duties of peanut-shelling and unwrap the bars. On the fourth day the ticket is finally found, but then Veruca asks for another pony. She is the second person to find a Golden Ticket, and the third to leave the tour. On the tour, Veruca demands her father get her an Oompa-Loompa, then a chocolate river and pink boat like Wonka's, and finally, the demand that proves her undoing - one of Wonka's worker squirrels.

12 Oompa Loompas Oompa Loompas are dwarves in Roald Dahl's fictional books Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator. They come from Loompaland and are the only people Willy Wonka will allow to work in his factory due to the risk of people stealing his recipes. They are only knee-high, and are paid in their favourite food, cacao beans

13 Grandpa Joe Grandpa Joe was one of Charlie's four bed- ridden grandparents. He tells Charlie the story of Willy Wonka's chocolate factory and the mystery of the secret workers. When Charlie found the Golden Ticket, Grandpa Joe leapt out of bed for joy. Charlie took Grandpa Joe to accompany him on the factory tour.

14 The Witches Grand high witch The Grand High Witch is a title given to the leader of all witches on Planet Earth, according to Roald Dahl's 1983 book The Witches. Described as being "without mercy," she travels around the world summoning all the witches of whatever country she is in, giving congratulations or punishments according to the witches' success in their ultimate mission: destroying children. She teaches them such schemes as trapping children inside paintings, turning them into slugs so they can be "squished" or turning American children into hot dogs so that they will be eaten by their own parents.

15 Matilda Matilda Matilda has black hair in the book, and is quite small in size, even compared to other five year olds. She is described as sensible and quiet, and almost unaware of her intelligence, though when with people she trusts or excited she often blurts out information incredibly quickly.
