Did anyone watch the Making Of special last night?
Conleth Hill's reaction to the table reading of Vary's death was great... and the scene in the preview of Kit crying is from the table reading when Jon/Aegon kills Dany.
I did! I had to put it on caption because I had a hard time following the accents lol
I teared up at Conleth and Kit's reactions.
I loved the coffee van manager: "Makin' myself a wee toastie" with her brogue had me chuckling.

Not long ago, it was difficult to determine who wielded the greater global power: Was it Daenerys Targaryen, Queen of the Ashes, Mother of Dragons, or Beyoncé, Queen Bey, Mother of Blue Ivy, Rumi, and Sir? Emilia Clarke, the young and skillful actor who has played Daenerys over eight seasons of “Game of Thrones,” encountered just this question earlier this year. Clarke found herself at an Oscars after-party thrown by Beyoncé and Jay-Z, at the Chateau Marmont. The place was a shimmering aquarium of celebrity. Clarke sat at the bar with a couple of friends, slack-jawed and watching. She was, in fact, “pretty drunk”—“six glasses of champagne in,” she says—as Drake, Rihanna, J. Lo., A-Rod, Adele, and Leo swam by. Then Clarke spotted the hostess, and she was heading toward the bar, toward her.
“I see this vision, this angel, this incredible woman float towards me,” Clarke recalled the other day. “I can’t quite control myself. And Beyoncé says to me, ‘Oh, my goodness, it’s so wonderful to meet you. I think you’re brilliant.’ I just couldn’t handle it! I was on the verge of tears. I could see myself reflected in her eyes. I could see her go, ‘Oh, no. I misjudged this. This girl is crazy and I’m not going to have a real conversation with another celebrity. I’m having a conversation with a crazed fan who’s looking at me like a rabbit in the headlights.’ Which is exactly what I was. I said, ‘I’ve seen you live in concert and I think you’re amazing and wonderful! Wonderful!’ And all I wanted to scream was ‘Please, please still like me even though my character turns into a mass-killing dictator! Please still think that I’m representing women in a really fabulous way.’ ”

I read this article too, and I about died laughing where she said she liked to believe Drogon took her to Hawaii. 🏝
I loved the documentary. It was really neat to hear from all the people behind the scenes. So much good stuff -
- The makeup artists' little girl getting to be an extra - The Night King taking selfies - Kit Harrington tearing up when he realizes he's going to kill Dany - seeing all the sets and how they set them up - everyone's reaction when during the cast reading and Arya kills the Night King
The Last Watch was so much better than I expected. These damn people keep pulling me in !
I Loved loved loved that they chose to follow an extra who is a fan. So many “real” people that dyamanically showed the scope and depth of a production this size.
I was seriously impressed all over again.
I think it was a little bit of a call-out to all super fan to say “so you SEE what we had to do? what we were up against? how hard we worked? the little people? stop being so god damn angry !”

If you want a glimpse into some of his scenes this reddit thread pulled some of them together: https://www.reddit.com/r/freefolk/comments/btgzw9/all_hail_greatbeard_andy_mcclay_king_of_the/A friend pointed him out last season and we've been glad to see him make it to the end!
I loved the look at all of the behind-the-scenes folks who made the series, well, the series and hope they've been able to pickup more regular work since the series ended.

I was so confused about the coffee cup. What was she trying to say? Lol. That it was put there purposely? It was a cute interview. She seems like a lovely person.

In other interviews I heard her or one of the other actors (it all kinda runs together) but they said that on screen actors are much more careful/aware than off screen people so I think she is saying its their fault.
