Gordon Geoffrey Wetherell Script error: No such module "If empty". (born 11 November 1948) is a British diplomat who was the former governor of the Turks and Caicos Islands.^[1] He was appointed on 5 August 2008, replacing Richard Tauwhare in the position. On 14 August 2009, he assumed direct political control when the British government imposed direct rule on the islands in response to a Foreign Office inquiry which found "information in abundance pointing to a high probability of systematic corruption or serious dishonesty" in the islands' administration under former premier, Michael Misick.^[2]

He was educated at Bradfield College (in Bradfield, Berkshire), at New College, Oxford and at the University of Chicago.^[3] His Foreign Office career has included service in East Berlin, Geneva, New Delhi, and Warsaw.^[4] From 1997 to 2000 he was the British ambassador to Ethiopia (and concurrently non-resident ambassador to Eritrea and Djibouti). He served as ambassador to Luxembourg from 2000 to 2004, and High Commissioner to Ghana from 2004 to 2007.^[1]

He was appointed Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George (CMG) in the 2011 Birthday Honours.^[5]^[6]

Governor Wetherell's last official meeting in office was with the advisory council on 11 August 2011, in Grand Turk.^[7] Wetherell departed the Providenciales, Turks and Caicos, on Sunday, 21 August 2011, ending his term as governor.^[7]
