Graham Hawkes

If you go back to the early days of aviation, the guys designing it built it, and then they got in it and flew it. I mean, who does that anymore?

The crazy thing is we live on an ocean planet - nobody gets that yet.

The ocean is this beautiful, unexplored place. Why on Earth everyone isn't down there, I don't know.

The blessing that this film business has given me is that when I walk into a school I automatically have everyone's attention. They want to hear what the guy from 'Con Air' and 'Desperado' has to say.

People say, 'Where do you live?' and I say that theoretically, I live in London, but basically that's just where I go to change my suitcase. Otherwise, I'm always flying somewhere.

I have a naturally camp sensibility and a camp sense of humour. I love the icons that gay people love.
