Bumping this post to the top since we keep getting more reports. First, a tweet from a Sean Bean fan who was at Doune Castle today, indicates that Bean won't be on set until next week.

I find it interesting that they aren't completely shutting down the castle to visitors during filming.  But then, I guess there's no reason to keep it all secret since the script has been floating around and everyone interested knows the story.

Oh we all should do this "labour of love" and be around when he works. And I'm pretty sure we will meet a lot of other fans.  :rofl

They are done with Scotland and moving to Belfast now.  This was GRRM's most recent blog post - about a half hour ago.  2:11pm, 10/28/09

Quote
The Scottish filming is done, and cast and crew are packing up today for the big move to Belfast and its Paint Hall, where the shoot will resume. So far, so good.

Parris and I are moving on as well. She'll be headed over to Ireland tomorrow to spend Samhaim with friends, while I linger here in Scotland a few more days to visit with Lisa Tuttle. We converge again in Belfast in November. Today we swung by the HarperCollins warehouse outside Glasgow, where I signed five hundred hardcovers of SONGS OF THE DYING EARTH. Ask for one at your favorite UK bookstore, they will be going all over the country.

Things are shaping up for the signing at Eason's in Belfast. Last night after the filming wrapped we stayed up late drinking with the cast, and I think we convinced a number of them to join us at Eason's. Should be a hoot and a half, assuming they don't come to their senses in the cold grey light of morning. I told them my readers were essentially harmless. Hah.

The cast is sensational, by the way.

You yelled??
Im here, and yes I will be in Belfast on Tuesday. Cant wait, will take pics, will probably stay the night as I want to enjoy a drink at the get-together. GRRM's post today is very encouraging, I hope Sean decides to drop in (and if he does I hope I dont collapse in an orgasmic heap and make a fool of myself!!)

Have fun, LJ . . . and remember, he apparently looks smaller in person!

If he does go, and I would be surprised if he did, afterall, he wouldn't be getting paid to actually mingle with us common folk, look for him hanging back in some corner trying not to be noticed.  If you do spot him, approach with a beer in hand and don't call him Mr. Bean.

What should I call him? I would never call somone by their first name if I dont know them. I probably would have said "Mr Bean", now you've made me nervous! Course, this is purely hypothetical as I doubt that he will be there!!

Personally, I'd go for "Sweetcheeks" as that would probably get a laugh out of him and he might not run away.
