Background
Glasspool was born on 5 March 1992[1] to a Welsh mother and English father in Hollywood, Birmingham, and was educated at Woodrush High School in Wythall and Stratford-upon-Avon College[2] and then studied for a BA Honours in Acting for Stage and Media at Kingston College;[3] although many websites give this as the University of West London, this is because the course is validated by them.[4]
Career
Within a week of graduating from Kingston College, Glasspool was filming for series 6 of Hollyoaks Later, a spin-off of Hollyoaks. He was cast in the role of Tony Hutchinson's estranged son, Harry Thompson, who had previously appeared in Hollyoaks between 2007 and 2008 and 2009, then played by Daniel Seymour and later Harrison George Rhodes.[5] Glasspool has noted that being called Parry and playing a character called Harry can be confusing, and that one person called him Parry on set and it was aired.[2] After this, he appeared in a two short films – How To Be Sexy by Isabelle Sieb and Cicada by Delouris Collins – and on Our Zoo for BBC1.[6] He later moved to Liverpool after being invited to participate in the main series of Hollyoaks, with his first episode being broadcast 9 February 2015 on E4 and a day later on Channel 4.[5] For his role as Thompson, he was nominated for best newcomer at the National Television Awards on 20 January 2016.[7]
