As a teenager, he served time in a Borstal institution for possessing live ammunition.
After jobs ranging from laying asphalt to dealing in antiques ( his best friend for several years was the glamorous and now-infamous international antiques dealer John Hobbs ) Bindon pursued a career in acting.
Director Ken Loach, spotting him in a London pub in 1966, considered him perfect for the role of a rough husband in the film, Poor Cow, released the next year.
His next big break came with a role in Performance alongside Mick Jagger, where he played a violent mobster.
