Biography
John Bindon was a British actor and bodyguard, known for his roles in classic British films like Performance, Get Carter, and Quadrophenia, often typecast as a gangland heavy. He gained notoriety for being sacked from Led Zeppelin's 1977 US tour after violent behavior and was later awarded the Queen's Award for Bravery for rescuing a drowning man. Bindon's reputation was marred by a murder trial in 1979, which he narrowly escaped acquittal for.
