Charlie Buckton comes into the bay with a bone to pick and the prowess to do it. As the daughter of Ross Buckton she finds his relationship with Morag unforgivably betraying, as her mother just passed away. Charlie is quite family oriented, but it’s hard to see it through her clashing with her father and her innate ability to rub people the wrong way.
She’s really quite misunderstood, as she comes off rather brash, but inside has a very warm heart. Charlie is struggling emotionally with the death of her mother and has very little life experience. Though the older of Ross’s two daughters, Charlie is the most expressive about her mother’s death and is determined to restore the family to be as perfect as possible.
She has the same headstrong expectations for everyone else in her life as she does for herself, which is so like her father that they clash and causes her to be hard on her younger sister.
She’s in the Bay learning to be a cop and maybe to fall in love for the first time ever. Both areas of inexperience leave her a little naïve, but Charlie is highly ambitious and is quite the perfectionist in everything she does.
Charlie is fit, passionate, highly educated, and is leaving quite an impression on the Bay already. At 25, she had never been in love or been in a long term relationship but is attracting a lot of notice in her cop uniform. So now she’s come to Summer Bay to get some field experience before she can continue rising up through the ranks in her job, in her love life, and with her family whether they like it or not.
She has had an on again, off again relationship with Roman Harris and a single date with fellow cop Angelo Rosetta, before Roman came to his senses and realised the she was the one for him.
