I was grieved to read of the death of Charles Walker. He saw a performance of Beyond the Chariots at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, after which he told us how he found Eric Liddell's grave in Weifang, China, which started the ball rolling on the establishment of a massive monument there in Liddell's honor. That conversation led us to interview him in our documentary, Olympic Hero in China: The Story of Eric Liddell.
Here's Walker's obituary in The Scotsman: A Liddell claim to fame.

Charles was also a former trustee of the Eric Liddell Centre in Edinburgh and will be missed by everybody here.
