Does any one else find it funny and cute that our Sansa seems to be smitten with our Loras?

Sophie is going to make a great Sansa.

Thanks again Miltos. It is so cool to hear that the cast and crew feels the love from the fans. When I started this site, I had hoped that that kind of connection would develop. And it sounds like it has.

I'm really looking forward to the next 30 weeks as we get to hear bits and pieces of what is going on with the production and witness the hard work of hundreds of people coming together to create something that will be enjoyed by millions. Even though I'm half a world away, through this wonderful thing called the internet, I feel like I am there, on set, getting to be a part of this. And I have to say, it is freaking awesome!

Keep up the good work man! And be sure to share with the rest of the cast and crew how much we're rooting for them and that we can't wait to see the results of all their hard work.

I like to imagine Miltos saying "Just so!" in that picture above.

Miltos, you are the man. I can't wait to see you put Maisie through her paces on screen. She is going to be great, I have no doubt. So nice of you to stop by. Break a leg!

Yeah, it's really hard to tell from the photos but it definitely could be the backs of completed sets. They can do a lot with perspective and green screens to make it look like a sprawling castle complex.

The key thing with this set, and I think it is why they chose to build Castle Black here, is the quarry wall will allow for the lighting to be just right. I would imagine it would be hard to replicate the lighting you would get from living beneath an 800-foot wall, but this is probably as close as they could get.

I thought that as well, only problem is: Brian Kirk was only supposed to direct two episodes. :/

Sounds like maybe today was a read for episode 4 only. I'm noticing all the actors you listed are in the tourney scene or the training at Castle Black (with the exception of Kristian, who may have actually been Conan). Sounds like they might be filming that stuff first?

Awesome. Thanks for the report, silverjaime! Keep up the good work.

While I'm sure they will have a stunt man do the actual jousting for all the characters (with the possible exception of Conan Stevens), I would think they would want them to look as comfortable and natural as possible while on a horse and holding a lance.

It was all a part of the bet. GRRM would create a character based on Pat and kill him horribly. Upon further review, it looks like Pat WON the bet and this was his reward. :)
