I nonetheless recall the push the place I noticed them constructing Stonehenge on the sound stage behind my workplace, for an episode I’d written. And naturally I visited the GAME OF THRONES shoots in Belfast, Scotland, Morocco, and Malta. These have been unbelievable too.
“However nothing I’ve ever seen can evaluate with the Pink Hold and Dragonstone units they’ve constructed at Leavesden Studios in London. HUGE, beautiful, and so damned actual that I felt as if I had gone by means of a time portal to medieval Westeros.

There’s a lot floor to cowl that I’m not certain twenty days would have been sufficient.”
The 2 tough minimize episodes he previewed have been a selected spotlight.
“After all, I’m hardly goal when speaking about something based mostly by myself work… however I’ve to say, I assumed each episodes have been simply nice. (And they aren’t even completed but). Darkish, thoughts you. Very darkish. They could make you cry. (I didn’t cry myself, however one in all my buddies did). Highly effective, emotional, gut-wrenching, coronary heart rending. Simply the kind of factor I like. (What can I say? I used to be weaned on Shakespeare, and love the tragedies and historical past performs better of all).”
