The world of the iron throne

Game of Thrones burst onto our screens and has been voted the most binge-worthy television show of all time with people regularly tuning in to catch up and streaming services to watch the episodes over and over again. If you missed any of the initial episodes due to bad aerial connection, that you had fixed by a TV Aerials Swansea company then here are a few facts about the series that you may be interested in. You can find Tv Aerials Swansea by One Vision if you are in need of some help.

  • Charles Dance enjoyed playing the role of Lord Tywin but felt appalled by the way that the character treated his son. So much so that Charles apologised to Dinklage in between the scenes being filmed.
  • Peter Dinklage who plays Tyrion Lannister, Lord Tywin’s son, appears in the most episodes. With Tyrion appearing in 61 out of the 67 episodes. He was also the only actor who was pre-selected for the role. George RR Martin and DB Weiss had no one else in mind for the role right from the start of production.

  • Season 7 was filmed in Iceland and at times the temperatures dropped to below -27 degrees celsius. So the shivering on screen wasn’t all down to their acting.
  • Some of the cast members went through months and months of sword training to help make their scenes look more realistic and to give them the stamina to complete the scenes.
  • Kit Harington and Rose Lesie fell in love whilst filing the show and were married in June of 2018 in Scotland.
