I don't think Sean Bean fits Ned very well. I always imagined him more like Clive Owen. And wasn't he described as having black hair? Or dark hair, at the least? It's been a while since I read the series and maybe I'm carrying too many preconceptions about Bean, but I just can't see him playing the morally upright, Ned.
...but during the trailer it felt a bit like Boromir was among the living again
Yeah, that was one thing that really bothered me. They didn't even bother to die his hair...which seems odd. Honestly, I just don't know if I can shake his roles from lotr and national treasure. He'll just always be a bad guy for me.

True, but the same point re Ned could have been made in a more ambiguous way. *NM*

Arguably 'Ned is at the centre of the whole series'

True. I think "at the center of the series" would have been a bit more accurate, though. *NM*

How does Dany fit into that center? IMO Robert Baratheon is center for Game of thrones, and SOIAF *NM*

I think he will do a tremendous job, and once we see the whole thing those thoughts will be gone...

Sophie looks breathtaking as Sansa, and I love the passion Emilia showed in her interview.
