ARTHUR SLUGWORTH

            Charlie and the Chocolate Factory ROALD DAHL (1964)

            Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971) played by Mick Wingert

Arthur Slugworth is the antagonist in the children’s book, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory as well as the film and television adaptations.

            Slugworth, like Willy Wonka, is a wealthy owner/manager of his own chocolate company called ‘Slugworth Chocolate Incorporated’. He is jealous of Wonkas recipes and success and hires people to spy on Wonka. Slugworths aim is to bring Wonka’s Factory out of business and to make all the profits himself. Slugworth was present when Wonka opened his factory and the cause of Wonka to close his factory and had to fire all his workers. Wonka continued working with the help of Oompa Loompas and continued to dominate the industry.

            In the 1971 film during the Bill’s Candy Shop scene, Wonka’s products are prominent however; Slugworth’s Sizzlers are also displayed and sold to a young girl.

            Grandpa Joe describes Slugworth as the worst of Wonka’s rivals, telling Charlie that he was one of the spies who were sent to steal Wonka’s Recipes.

            Wonka plants golden tickets inside chocolate wrapping and allegedly knows where they are going to turn up. As each child finds a Golden Ticket, “Slugworth” approaches the child and whispers something in their ear.

I congratulate you, little boy. Well done. You've found the fifth Golden Ticket. May I introduce myself. Arthur Slugworth: President of Slugworth Chocolates, Incorporated. Now, listen carefully because I'm going to make you very rich indeed. Mr. Wonka is at this moment working on a fantastic invention: the Everlasting Gobstopper. If he succeeds, he'll ruin me. So, all I want you to do is to get hold of just one Everlasting Gobstopper and bring it to me so that I can find the secret formula. Your reward will be ten thousand of these.

Think it over, will you. A new house for your family, and good food and comfort for the rest of their lives. And don't forget the name: Everlasting Gobstopper.

            When Wonka asks the children inside his factory not to show the Everlasting Gobstopper to anyone, Veruca Salt crosses her fingers behind her back. Mike Teevee mentions to his mother, what secrets can they sell to Slugworth, his mother tells him to keep his eyes peeled and mouth shut.

At the end of the 1971 film, Wonka tells Charlie he didn’t win the prize because he violated the rules for stealing the Fizzy Lifting Drinks. Grandpa Joe upset with Wonka, tells him that Charlie can give Slugworth the Gobstopper, Charlie however, sympathises with Wonka and returns the Gobstopper. Wonka forgives Charlie and then reveals that the man wasn’t actually Slugworth, but a trustworthy Wonka employee, Mr. Wilkinson, who wanted to test the children on how trustworthy they are. We don’t actually see the real Slugworth in the 1971 film.
