My websearches also indicate that many of the deeds ascribed to Cromwell weren’t necesarily his personal doing, e.g. christmas and theater were already banned when he came into power. Puritans really didn’t like fun, like in general.

This is the best I can find in regard to perspectives of King Charles I as an idolator. If there is an account of Cromwell directly accusing Charles I of Idolatry I couldn’t find it easily.
As for the rest I found this
His destruction of idols and statues largely happened in Ireland but also occurred in England source
As for closing bars, his administration did this but not all bars, just ones that were “unlicensed and disorderly” source
