The Haunting of Harry Payne trailer

Graham Cole, Martin Faulks & Fliss Walton

Here’s a photo of me on the set of “The Haunting of Harry Payne” with co-star Fliss Walton and publicist Martin Faulks.

You can see the trailer for the film below and visit the official website here.


Ex-London gangster Harry Payne retires to Norfolk to be close to his wife, driven mad when he was forced to kill his best friend, psychopathic gang boss Eugene McCann. Immediately he is drawn into a murder mystery in which an obsessive local police detective targets him as the killer. However, unknown to anyone, Harry has psychic abilities he has always suppressed with alcohol. Now he must confront the supernatural and his own personal demons to save his wife and free the tormented souls of the ghosts that haunt him.

A Christmas Carol

Hello all. Just a quick update for you. I will be playing the role of Scrooge in Lichfield Garrick’s forthcoming production of A Christmas Carol.

The whole cast is really excited about the show. It has a great team behind it who has created a superb adaptation of the script. And, with brand new set and costume designs, a sparkling musical score, special effects, including real snow and skating on ice scenes, A Christmas Carol is sure to be a sensation and the perfect show to get audiences into the festive spirit.

From The Lichfield Garrick site:

This year’s spectacular will be a new adaptation of the classic Christmas tale, A Christmas Carol, by Charles Dickens.

Following the record breaking Peter Pan last year, A Christmas Carol is set to be another winner and is brought to you by the same creative team, Ian Adams will adapt the book and Adrian Jackson will arrange the MGM style scores. There will be spectacular live music and dance numbers, new scenery and costumes, stunning scenes on ice and magical puppets to delight the whole family, oh, and snow will fall onto the audience too!

A Christmas Carol tells the story of Scrooge, a miserly old man who has lost his Christmas cheer.
With the arrival of three ghosts, Scrooge is hurled into a journey of discovery with a lesson he will never forget. Will he change his ways? Come along and find out.

Cole on Patrol

Hello everyone,
I have been filming all over Sydney for a Travel and police type show called ‘Cole on Patrol’ where I take the viewer to all the great sights of Sydney but also look at the security and policing that keeps us safe while there. We do The Bridge climb, Sydney harbour and it’s Water Police. At ANZ stadium, for the big events held there, we had access to briefings back stage and all the command posts for Police, then of course the places to eat etc. It has been awesome to see Sydney from the Air and behind the scenes.
This is a pilot which we hope will be picked up for a series.

I had a great response at the book signing in Manly at Humphries, the biggest book shop in Australia.

I’ll provide more information soon and would like to say a big thanks to everyone for the fantastic reception I’ve received.
