- Todays famous grave I visit legendary character actor Brian Glover. He was in the classic Kes, American Werewolf in London, Alien 3 and so much more.
Described by The New York Times as a "robust character actor" who played "gruff but likable roles", he had a "string of roles playing tough guys and criminals". He once said, "You play to your strengths in this game, and my strength is as a bald-headed, rough-looking Yorkshireman". Glover was also known as the voice of the Tetley tea commercials. The Independent described him upon his death as "one of Britain's best-loved actors".

Brian was incredible in Kes . . . a legendary performance.
I still feel sad when I see graves of someone as famous as Brian glover looking so uncared for,not even flowers,he was brilliant in porridge,and appeared in a lot of tv programs,Great entertainer,RIP Brian,thank you Paul total respect xxxx❤️😊
Agreed!! Very poor for such a great actor
I felt the same when I realised Boris Karloff had a random plaque for his ashes, rather than a huge monolith, but it is what it is.
Will always remember him from An American Werewolf in London. Such a powerful voice. RIP Brian x
Remember the Alamo and chucked out the Mexican joke
🥀👍👍👍
" you sat in my seat " ! He was also in one of The Sweeney films and ends up getting machine gunned down at a scrap yard . He was also in Porridge .
An unforgettable voice,he was great in Porridge,he really had a full life,RIP,well done Paul.
Porridge I red a book once green it was 🤣🤣
@@jrothweldo7 I was just gonna write that haha great 😂
Ahhhhh Brian Glover was a brilliant versatile actor. Kes. American Werewolf in London. Alien 3, Porridge, Brannigan, The Sweeny, Minder and many more. Rest in peace sir and thank you for all the joy you gave me on TV when I was a kid! 🙏 And thank you Paul, I'm sorry it's late, I've only just watched this one! 👍
Loved him met him in Mumbles my home just outside Swansea where I live. He was appearing in the Grand Theatre Swansea. A real gentleman and people person. He had really broad shoulders. A gifted man ❤️
Best version of a P. E. teacher ever to be done in Kes. 👊👍😁
What a career! He appeared in the episode of Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads? called "No Hiding Place". Bob and Terry had a bet with him that they would avoid hearing the score of an England football match played that day. A former work colleague of mine was from Barnsley and Brian Glover was his English teacher; he was nothing like the character he played in Kes.
Hiya Geoff, what part did Brian play in Kes?
@@paulguise698 he was the pe teacher.
Its been said but his role in Kes was truly magical. I'm surprised he's nor buried in Yorkshire.
The bit in Kes with the football is such a brilliant piece on film as Brian just makes it such a believable teacher student relationship the kids must have loved filming that scene.
He was a diamond geezer😁⭐️👍
Great Actor, Great Character, Unmistakable Voice of the 70's. Loved him in the Sweeney as Moose
I remember ages ago suggesting the where abouts of Brian Glover, strangely enough I got my wish, I can't believe there are no flowers 😢 at his graveside knowing how famous he was. Gone but never forgotten, R I P Brian 🙏❤️🇬🇧❤️🙏 Nov twenty two
Absolutely loved him ast PE teacher in Kes ( early shower for you lad ).. His character epitomised our PE teachers of the 60s - 70s ,basically deluded bullies. . RIP Mr Glover what a star 🌟
Loved Brian in Gas with the late Rik Mayall and Ade Edmondson, trying to tap into Brian's gas meter to nick gas and the mayhem that ensued.
Lovely to see where he's buried but what a plain marker to honour such a great man
Thanks once again Paul
Yeah..hilarious.
His most memorable roles for me were in Kes, Porridge and Bottom. I must admit I had no idea his career was so varied; I had heard he was a wrestler, but all those other roles and the writing I had no idea. All respect to Brian.
He had a real bird in his bed too
He was hilarious as the PE Teacher in Kes.
Who noticed a young Rik Myall in An American Werewolf in London?
Great video Paul,Thanks
Steve
American werewolf in London. Best werewolf film ever. 👍
Brian Glover was perfect as Lugg in Campion. He’s the main reason I enjoy the show so much.
I loved Brian in the film Kes , when he played the role of a teacher , when he took his class out to play football he was the Ref and Bobby Charlton at the same time [ what a legend ] . Its a great part of the film and always takes me back yo my youth.
I was 11 years old when i saw that, makes me laugh everytime i think of it, & i am now 65 years old & i have laughed alot!
I Will Always Remember Him. He Had A Powerful Presence About Him. R.I.P🧡
What a great actor. I've never forgotten a monologue that he did for Winter for Hymns of Praise in the 80s. It was unmissable, but never been able to find it - keep on looking!
brian glover a brilliant actor the one part in the film kes will always stick in one's mind is that infamous dive while playing football with the pupils and he missed the first penalty shot but ordered it to be retaken as the goalkeeper moved as brian himself was also the referee god bless you bian and thanks for all the laughs R.I.P
My favourite line on Kes is "the fat twat he needs bleeding milking the big fat get"
I didn't realise he was in so many acting roles , brilliant actor , looking forward to this 😊❤
He was also in an episode of last Of The Summer Wine- in Keeping Britain tidy. Great actor.
Loved him as the Sports teacher who thought he was Bobby Charlton Mr Casper in the classic movie Kes.
Dennis Law's in the wash.
Brilliant Paul,thank you, in the 90s I took the wife shopping at the big shopping centre in Sheffield and I literally bumped into him,and as soon as he spoke to me I new it was Brian Glover, kes what a brilliant film, another gem Paul. Keep them coming, cheers.
It's great to see you keeping these great actors and stars memories alive.
Brian was in a episode of Minder as "Yorkie" it was the episode "The Beer Hunter 1980" . He lost his trousers or Kegs in this episode and was so funny to watch. Once someone left a spare pair of trouser by his grave.
Brian also appeared in the Sweeney and Minder. Brilliant character actor, loved his performance in Kes, still makes me laugh
As a French Man i didn 't know this outsranding woman? But i heard about the Suffragettes in England at the begining of 20 th century.Thank you Lady Pankhurst for what you have done for women!!!And thank you Paul for sharing this very good video with us!!! God Bless!!! Denis
Amazing the number of people who we haven't thought about in years until something like this happens and reminds you of them. I hadn't realised he had passed. Thanks for sharing, may he RIP. Maybe your little "incident" with your phone was him saying thank you for remembering him 😊

Brian was great, Thank you
Having walked around Brompton Cemetery this morning and googled ‘famous people’ in said cemetery… I was shocked to see a distant relative was laid to rest there, Brian Glover! This video proved extremely useful in locating Brian’s grave and even managed to leave him a white flower on there… I couldn’t locate a white rose (Yorkshires flower) in time. Much appreciated!
My pleasure, glad it came in handy for you…. 🙏
An underrated actor , Im glad youve done this one as so.many character actors tend to be forgotten .
What a very simple, understated grave stone Brian has
My husband and i are just finishing Campion and Lug is our favorite. Thanks for the little bio and thoughts at his grave.

I bumped into Brian Glover at a rugby league match in the early nineties. He was with that other legend Colin Welland. Lovely fellas.
Hello Paul
Another great video 👍 thanks..
I'm currently in Ireland 🇮🇪. I've visited a few Graveyards/Cemeterys ,Truly Amazing some of them 😊
Great cast in an American Werewolf In London. Loved Brian telling the crashing plane joke. Also Jenny Agutter was in that film (enough said).
Great info here Paul on the brilliant Brian Glover.
Great actor was Brian, Was in some great stuff on TV 📺 .
R.I.P Brian.
My favourite film An American Werewolf in London...one thing I did notice on that film is the door of The Slaughtered Lamb when David and Jack entered the outside was a full panelled top to bottom door and inside it was 6 panel door... and Brian's football ref part in Kes is one of the funniest of the old films I have seen...
Nice tribute paul rip Brian i remember him in kes and pro wrestling great actor cheers
Always that recognisable voice; that's Brian's.
Great posting as usual.

I have got a few Tetley Tea Tea-towels that used to belong to My late Mum. Brilliant as Always Paul xxx
I remember watching him on a Saturday Afternoon on Word of Sport as Leon Arras the wrestler.
Always got the vibe he was a good ‘un, wish I’d had the chance to meet him.
Didnt realize he was such a very talented person thanks for posting
So sad the people on your site are no longer with us but at least the material that they have left can still be enjoyed and this material has been a great help during the pandemic and difficult times also thanks to you keeping their memory alive 😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you Paul, loved this one, I never realized he had done so much, writing a play and starring alongside some great actors, loved his comedy, he was a talented man. xx
Loved him in kes, wow what an actor he was 👏
