Interview: MARTEN JULIAN Hailing from a mining village and son of a vicar Marten Julian was sent to a private school in Hove funded by an uncle who was a founding father of the NHS. University in London followed with an eye on the Church – as a vocation he studied theology. However, at some point during his degree Marten’s attention focused on Hackney Dogs as opposed to Heaven, of course some may say they were one and the same. Regular visits proved profitable as was a greyhound tipping service run while still a student. The dogs were soon usurped by horses in a quest for winners, they soon followed, the cloth was ditched for the turf and 50 years later the rest is all in the form book. As Marten explains in this five part interview, there were celebrity studded highs and crushing, debilitating, lows but he’s still on top of the game. It’s all here, in a rare and candid five part interview. Meeting Marten Julian.
