Two new GAME OF THRONES previews - Edit 1

Before modification by Werthead at 29/11/2010 08:01:35 AM

One aired last night on HBO and is linked below. Confusingly, this was a promo for a behind-the-scenes show which is airing next Sunday on HBO, but it does have the first dialogue exchange from the show: Catelyn (Michelle Fairley) reminding Ned (Sean Bean) that the last time Robert Baratheon whisked him away things didn't go well (referring to the civil war and the rebellion).

This is actually nice attention to detail: this scene isn't directly in the novel, but Catelyn remembers it later on (even down to Ned's, "I have no choice,".

Eagle-eyed viewers may also spot an Unsullied, which is really impressive attention to detail: whilst Unsullied guards are present in Pentos in the book, we don't learn anything about them substantially until Book 3. And of course Dinklage @ Tyrion = Awesome.

Another 30-second teaser for the series proper airs tonight in the USA on HBO.
