  • Notes 
    • While Greg never married, he was constantly accompanied by glamorous women. One "infamous" lady of the 1960s Sydney scene who dated Greg was the subject of many newspaper reports when she was photographed in the "latest" topless fashion outfits which featured completely bare breasts in an otherwise conventional outfit.
