Greg Wood (born 21 August) is an English actor.

Career

Wood usually plays villainous or threatening characters. His first acting role was in Hollyoaks, playing one of the bullys in the ground breaking portrayal of Luke Morgan's rape and would then go on to play what is possibly his best-known role in the now defunct soap Brookside playing a drug dealer called Terry Gibson. Wood later reprised the role for the spin-off DVD Unfinished Business and was one of four nominated for Soap Villain of the Year.

Since leaving Brookside he has appeared in The Courtroom, Casualty 1907 and has appeared twice in Emmerdale.

Wood is the brother of Matt Milburn who played Joe Spencer in Hollyoaks

In 2009-10, Wood joined Coronation Street in which he played a loan shark, Rick Neelan. On 14 April 2010 Coronation Street was cleared by Ofcom for broadcasting a scene where Greg's characher Rick Neelan pushed a burning newspaper through someone's letterbox. 31 people complained about the scene, claiming that the show had incited and encouraged crime. However Ofcom ruled that it was "not likely to encourage or incite the commission of crime or lead to disorder".

In 2013, Wood re-joined Hollyoaks to play the villainous character Trevor Royle, a pivotal player in the exit of long running character Jacqui McQueen.
