Heil Caesar is a 1973 BBC television drama. It was an adaptation by John Bowen of Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar, which was produced by Ronald Smedley. The production designer was Humphrey Jaeger. The adaptation is listed as one of Bowen's achievements in his obituary in The Guardian newspaper. It was originally made in three parts for use with schools and colleges but it was shown again a year later on BBC 2 on 21 October 1974 in a single 90-minute slot. In 1975, the BBC made a further introductory programme for schools to add to the original three episodes, which examined the series in more detail for schools and which included comments from the original cast.
