Let ${\mathcal X}$ be a locally compact metric space and let ${\mathcal A}$ be any of the Lipschitz algebras ${\operatorname{Lip}_{\alpha}{\mathcal X}}$, ${\operatorname{lip}_{\alpha}{\mathcal X}}$ or ${\operatorname{lip}_{\alpha}^0{\mathcal X}}$. In this paper, we show, as a consequence of rather more general results on Banach algebras, that ${\mathcal A}$ is $C$-character amenable if and only if ${\mathcal X}$ is uniformly discrete.

We show that if the general real method $(\cdot ,\cdot )_\Gamma$ preserves the Banach-algebra structure, then a bilinear interpolation theorem holds for $(\cdot ,\cdot )_\Gamma$.

A new proof for the Gleason-Kahane-\.Zelazko theorem concerning the characters of a Banach algebra is given. A theorem due to P\'olya and Saxer is used instead of the Hadamard factorization theorem.
