    Jeor Mormont (James Cosmo) was the grumpy shopkeeper in The Runway (good film, by the way)

    That's my weekend planned!

    what will you do with the other 47 hours 56 minutes?


  • Registered Users Posts: 862 ✭✭✭Marje


    Really?

    I didn't cop that one.

    Weird that the same actress would be in two pretty mianstream shows at the same time.
    She appeared in the last minute and will be in the last two episodes of series one.

    She mentions in this article that she will start filming new series of GoT in July and wasn't sure if she will appear in series two of Elementary as they're still writing it.


    EDIT:
    Aidan Gillen is presenter of Other Voices on RTE 2

    Anton Lesser - as Qyburn (doc who cauterized the Kingslayer's severed hand),
    Burn Gorman- as Karl,
    Oona Chaplin- As Talisa

    All 3 appeared in The Hour, a 50s based spy drama produced by the BBC (excellent show imo)

    Burn Gorman was also in one of the Batman pics.

    Peter Dinklage voiced the baddie in Ice Age 4. It was the Kids Club film at Odeon last week!

    Davos was in it too, he's the pub owner, and Walder Frey is Harry's mate.

    Not sure if you mean a more recent one but Greatjon Umber used to be Little John in Robin of Sherwood (the one with Michael Praed, not Sean Connerys son).

    I didn't watch much of it tbh. But imdb say's 2009 TV series and he was also in the unrelated film Robin Hood in 2010.

    I never even knew that existed, I might give it a watch, I used to love Robin of Sherwood when I was a kid. Thanks for the tip!

    I see from IMDB that Harry Lloyd (Viserys Targaryen) is also in it. Great find DL!

    He was in Eastenders as well.

    Sibel Kekilli who plays Shae was in a very good (albeit very grim) German movie called Head On. Before that she was a porn actress (one of the few to make the crossover to mainstream work). And the bloke who played Varys turned up in Suits a few weeks back..


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,885 ✭✭✭PomBear


    Lena Headley (Cersei) and Stephen Dillane (Stannis) were in the Parole officer

    Iain Glen (Jorah Mormont) was the evil priest in Song for a Raggy Boy

    Surprised nobody has brought this one up yet, Liam Cunningham (Davos) was the teacher in War of the Buttons

    Meera Read (played by Ellie Kendrick) is Tom McNair's girlfriend from the BBC Being Human. She's annoying in that too.

    Barriston Selmy and Roose Bolton are playing cops in that new Gillian Anderson cop show The Fall on RTE/BBC

    Roose Bolton was also in Intermission as the bank guy if anyone hasn't said that already.

    Selmy was in Michael Collins as the detective from Belfast who gets blown up quite quickly.

    Jojen Reed is the kid in Love Actually

    Ahem! Post 6.

    Master Luwin played the Prime Ministers aide in episode 1 of Charlie Brookers Black Mirror.

    Balon Greyjoy is in the pre-credit scene of the The World is not Enough and in Eurotrip.

    Davos was the special forces guy Ryan in Dog Soldiers.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,885 ✭✭✭PomBear


    Davos (Liam Cunningham) is also in the recent Kodaline music video


    He's also in Wind that Shakes the Barley (he's the train driver). He's in at about 5.18.



    Aidan Gillen (Littlefinger) played a H-block hunger striker in Some Mother's son (Ciarán Hinds a.k.a. Mance Rayder, plays a Gerry Adams-esque character in this), he was also in the opening scene Dark Knight Rises and in the first two seasons of Love/Hate.

    He's also in Fergus's Wedding and Paths To Freedom, PTF is one of the best things RTE has ever made.
