===Career===
 
Glover trained at the National Youth Theatre and performed with the Royal Shakespeare Company. In the early 1950s he appeared in several shows at Unity Theatre, London During the 1960s and 1970s, Glover frequently appeared in British television shows, including The Avengers, Doctor Who, The Saint and Blake's 7.
 
 
Julian Glover also appeared in 1967's Quatermass and the Pit, a Hammer Films adaptation of Nigel Kneale's 1950s BBC television original, in which he portrayed Quatermass' nemesis, Colonel Breen, a military man, initially sceptical of the ancient origin of an archaeologically excavated extraterrestrial spacecraft, who is later ironically in thrall to the murderous energy released from the craft. In 1979, he appeared as the villain, Scaroth, in the Doctor Who episode, "City of Death," one of the most acclaimed and popular episodes of the series. He later recorded DVD commentaries for The Crusade (Doctor Who) episode The Wheel of Fortune (from the Lost in Time (Doctor Who) DVD set) and City of Death.

He made some of his most notable appearances during the 1980s as the Imperial General Maximilian Veers in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980), the ruthless Aris Kristatos in the James Bond film For Your Eyes Only (1981), and the deceptive American Nazi Walter Donovan in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989).

Glover has made the Anglo-Saxon epic poem Beowulf practically his own since the 1980s, delivering various forms of staged interpretation. Taking the role of an Anglo-Saxon gleeman or traveller poet he delivers an abridged version of the tale whilst stood around a mead hall hearth. This powerful 11th century Old English text, set in the dark age Germanic world of the Geats, examines Anglo-Saxon concepts of honour and comitatus. The performance is interspersed with Glover rendering selected passages in the original Old English. This adaptation has almost become 'definitive', being shown in documentaries on both the English Language and Anglo-Saxon England. Most recently it was shown in Michael Wood's documentary 'Beowulf', broadcast during the BBC Poetry Season on BBC4 and BBC2 in 2009.
 
 
He is currently playing the role of Mr. Brownlow in the West End revival of the musical Oliver! at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane.
