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.

Trained as a police Class 1 driver so as to make his performance as PC Tony Stamp in The Bill (1984) more authentic.

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.

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.
