Der Frage widmet sich Brian (David Earl) in der Komödie Brian and Charles. Er lebt schon lange zurückgezogen auf einer kleinen Farm in Wales, wo er die meiste Zeit unnützen Blödsinn erfindet. Doch als er irgendwann doch zu einsam wird, macht er, was jeder vernünftige Erfinder täte: Er baut sich aus einer Waschmaschine einen Roboter mit eigener Persönlichkeit.
An endearing outlier, Brian lives alone in a Welsh valley, inventing oddball contraptions that seldom work. After finding a discarded mannequin head, Brian gets an idea. Three days, a washing machine, and sundry spare parts later, he’s invented Charles, an artificially intelligent robot who learns English from a dictionary and proves a charming, cheeky companion. Before long, however, Charles also develops autonomy. Intrigued by the wider world — or whatever lies beyond the cottage where Brian has hidden him away — Charles craves adventure.
