Gordon Morris

Gordon was born in Dundee, Scotland and spent most of his time growing up in Douglas (a housing scheme in the east end of the city). He went to school at Whitfield Primary, Powrie Primary and Craigie High. He never really thought of acting until he met a friend, who he'd been on a bricklaying course with a few years earlier, who was now training to be an actor. His friend introduced him to the acting scene in Dundee and within a few weeks he was a member of Dundee Rep community theatre. He then applied for the Dundee College Theatre Arts course, he was accepted onto the course and absolutely loved every single minute of the training he received. In 1999 he gained a place at the prestigious Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama (now the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland). Three years in Glasgow surrounded by some of the most amazing acting talent, and being taught by some of the best acting teachers in the world, really opened his eyes to the opportunities that were out there. He graduated in 2002 with a BA in acting.
