Mr. Charrington (Unknown if this is his real name) is an officer of the Thought Police disguised as an old shop owner in the Proles quarters.

He was responsible for Winston and Julia's capture after allowing them to use the room above his shop that had (Unknown to them) a hidden Telescreen.

It was he that supplied Winston with the book he writes in at the beginning and first part of 1984.
