Charlie Barley, a.k.a.
Charles MacLeod, is a member of a famous family of butchers, from Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis famous for his version of the traditional Hebridean black pudding, a concoction of sheep's blood and oatmeal stuffed not into the traditional natural casing but into an inedible plastic tube (as illustrated above).
Charles MacLeod also makes haggis, which is a Scottish Lowland, rather than authentically Hebridean, dish, involving the variety meats from an eviscerated sheep together with oatmeal and barley.
