Most recently, character actor Julian Glover has kept his profile up with a long-running role in Game Of Thrones as Grand Maester Pycelle but his two most famous roles came in the 1980s from Lucasfilm; playing Nazi collaborator Walter Donovan in Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade (1989) and Imperial general Maximilian Veers in The Empire Strikes Back (1980). But in the long tradition of Doctor Who actors being used more than once, Glover has encountered both the First and Fourth Doctors. Glovers first brush with Doctor Who came in 1965 in the First Doctor story The Crusade where he played King Richard III in an encounter with the Doctor in Palestine in the year 1140 AD. And in 1979, he reappeared as Scaroth, an alien counterfeiting copies of the Mona Lisa (though all painted by Da Vinci) in order to fund time travel research that would allow him to travel back in time to stop the explosion that splintered his body across different eras. At the moment, Glover has had small roles in a number of films due for release later this year and will be appearing in Season 5 of Game Of Thrones.
