HP, GW was Graham Wardell, a former test pilot (and the first foreigner to fly the F117) who had, we have to assume, had a proper workup in the Hawk for the display. It would have been in BAe's interests to assure the proficiency of its display pilot for an aircraft that it was trying to sell. When I spoke to fellow Flt Ops individuals, there was no hint that Graham was anything other than proficient.
