Sinclair is a Scottish actor most famous for playing Gregory in
Gregory's Girl. He was born as Gordon John but took the stage name 'John
Gordon Sinclair' because Equity already had a Gordon John registered. He
joined Glasgow's Youth Theatre after he visited one night and met fellow
fan of Canadian progressive rock group Rush, Robert Buchanan. As a

the most famous of which was 1981's Gregory's Girl, shot when he was 19
years old. He reprised the role nearly two decades later in Gregory's
Two Girls, and also appeared in Forsyth's Local Hero
