Grahams credits looks like a list of classic Aussie TV. It’s odd that they missed out The Sullivans, in that list, as that’s where I remember him from. He played a menacing type character in that. RIP.
A great actor and versatile performer. My condolences to Maggie and the extended family. Aussie acting royalty.
