It’s kind of sad that some of my best friends on set like Emilia Clarke, I never get to spend time with, but I think what makes us so close is that we’re sharing this common ground where we’re all working on this wonderful show. It really binds us together. - Kit Harington
“I love when I’m watching stuff that I’m not in. When I watched Episode 9, I was like, ‘Yes, I can relax the whole time,’ and be absorbed in everybody else. It was a hugely emotional thing to watch — we knew it was coming and we said our goodbyes — but I was overjoyed that I wasn’t a part of that. At least I know I’m safe. I’m over on the other side of the sea. And anyway, my dragons would burn you all.”

Clarke’s morning started with a bit of shoe-throwing. “It was really bizarre because I’m staying with (best friend and Game of Thrones co-star) Rose Leslie and we were talking last night about (hoping the show would get recognized). And then 6 o’clock rolls around and my alarm in the hotel started beeping terribly. I didn’t set the alarm and I didn’t know what was going on. I was finding shoes to throw at things. And then my phone started ringing. It took like two or three phone calls for them to say ‘No no, you are nominated as well as the show,“ she laughs. Her first call? “I was on the phone with my publicist and I was like, I need to call my mum! Please can I call my mum!”

“My life is unrecognizable compared to what it was - ‘Game of Thrones’ has opened doors that were never there before. But it can be dangerous to see it in those terms, I think. It’s best to take it as it comes and work as hard as you can, and hopefully the other things fall into place.”
