Charles Ronald George Nall-Cain, 3rd Baron Brocket, Bt. (born 12 February 1952), also known as Charlie Brocket, is a peer and television presenter in the United Kingdom.
An Old Etonian, Brocket served in the King's Hussars as a Lieutenant. He became famous after being jailed for car insurance fraud in 1996, having dismantled and hidden four Ferraris he said had been stolen. Whilst in prison, he was stabbed. In 2004 he was a contestant on the third series of I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here and became a minor celebrity. His autobiography, Call Me Charlie, was published later the same year. He hosted the ITV1 game show Scream! If You Want to Get Off and presented Privates Exposed, behind the scenes of Bad Lads’ Army, on ITV2.
Brocket's parents were Ronald Nall-Cain and Elizabeth Trotter. His father died when Brocket was nine-years-old. The title of Baron Brocket passed to him at 25 on the death of his grandfather, Arthur Ronald Nall Nall-Cain, 2nd Baron Brocket, at which point he inherited Brocket Hall , which was in a bad state of repair. He converted his home into a hotel and conference venue. Today he still owns the hall in Hertfordshire, which is worth about £60m, through a trust which leases it to a German consortium. He married former Vogue model Isabell Maria Lorenzo in 1982 and divorced in 1994. They have three children: Alex, Antalya and William.
