Trivia

Graham Cole

Edit
  • Trained as a police Class 1 driver so as to make his performance as PC Tony Stamp in The Bill (1984) more authentic.
  • When he was working as a plaster technician - in the early 70's - he set up Malcolm McDowell's traction body-cast for the last scenes of "A Clockwork Orange". But he did not meet either McDowell or Stanley Kubrick, nor indeed see his handywork because a typically closed film set.
  • Graham met his wife in 1979 when he was an entertainer at an English holiday camp where Cherry was having a break with her parents.
  • They have two children Matthew, 24, and Laura, 22.
  • Prior to his acting debut, he worked in an Essex hospital's fracture clinic as a plaster technician. After taking part in a hospital panto one year, his colleagues were so impressed with his performance they urged him to pursue an acting career.
  • He developed a condition called pulsatile tinnitus that started to affect his hearing - his doctor warned that he could become deaf. Graham took time off from filming The Bill to have an operation on his ear which fully restored his hearing.
  • 2020 - Interviewed about his life and career for book "Witness Statements: Making The Bill (Series 1-3)".
