According to the WiC blog, filming took place today at Tollymore Forest Park.  Looks like a great standin for a godswood:

I would so love to visit that place!  It looks truly wonderful.  I would have a hard time leaving if I was there.

Love the beard . . . and bless, he's gonna wear that blue-checked shirt until it begs for mercy (I swear, that really is one of the things I like best about him).

Lighty, do you have your readers on?  That's a green checked shirt and its a bit smaller of a check than the blue one, but, its still likely he got it in Germany as those checked shirts are the traditional shirts worn with lederhosen.  Pretty cheap too considering the most expensive ones run around 30 Euro.  He probably picked up half a dozen at Meister's.

Oh if only the person taking the pic had taken a step back we might have caught a glimpse of Sean's lederhosen!!

Where did you find the pic BJ? And is there a story with it?

Also Sean's hair looks very fair for Ned Stark, or maybe its just the lighting?

Well, no, actually I didn't . . . *blush* but honestly I think I was distracted by the beard and the lop-sided (probably slightly "happy") grin!
You're absolutely right - and I still love it.  I have a Colorado girl's weakness for checked shirts, I guess!

FYI you all ....the photo came from Bebo.com at the link below:

http://it.bebo.com/PhotoAlbums.jsp?ProfilePhoto=Y&MemberId=17374829

Believe it may have been prior to the start of filming in Belfast.

Indeed - a little more digging (excellent starting clue, HK!!) reveals that owner of the photo said this on his Bebo page "I just met Sean Bean in the Empire.  Class!" - apparently updated 2 weeks ago.  The Empire is a live music venue (and basement beer hall with sports on the telly) in Belfast.  Looks like a neat place, actually!

Interesting LJ entry from one of the guys in the group that participated at Doune Castle:

Guys from the Clan met and spoke with Sean Bean while on set and here's a pic of Clanranald member Scott Macmaster as a Baratheon guard, he was told  there are another 30 episodes to do next year!!

As LJ said, its tooooo bad the picture didn't include the requisite lederhosen.  The thought of the SA clad in snug-fitting lederhosen conjures up all kinds of interesting images.   :bluecat

Beano in lederhosen just makes me think of skinny legs and knobby knees.   :mutley:

Looks like you beat some of the diehards on the WiC blog to the punch, Sable!

Was checking out the Sean Bean fansite forum for any possible info they might have and came across this link, allegedly of a Baratheon Guard uniform.

I have a feeling the stag on the lanyard isn't part of the actual costume but something to identify while everyone is setting up whose with what group...just a guess. It doesn't look like a part of the costume to me, but it might yet be based on what the Baratheon stag will look like.

In the comments.  Probably a good thing they can't get into the closed forums, eh?  *yes, WiC lurkers, I'm teasing - there's nothing in there you need to see . . . but feel free to sign in and say hello - we don't bite.  Hard.  Much.
