Thanks for the info. I would hope that if any of our friends on this site have an early copy, they would please not put information out about it or make it as a spoiler so those of us who want to be surprised can avoid the comments.

It should have been such a treat those of us who love a good epic tale: a head-to-head between the Arthurian legend cycle and a great modern myth-in-the-making. On the surface of things, Channel 4’s Camelot should have had the edge over Sky Atlantic’s Game of Thrones: stellar cast, time-honoured story, prime-time terrestrial TV slot.

At first sight they both looked handsome with their gorgeous locations, lovingly detailed costumes and castles, a touch of the other-worldly, eye-catching actors in various states of undress. But oh, what a difference in terms of script and dialogue…

It came as no surprise to me that HBO’s Game of Thrones (Sky Atlantic) should win hands down

Maisie explained, “We’ve lost a lot of names now. We just started to film, and then he (Sean Bean) went away, it was weird, because it was my first [role] ever and it was my last scene and to be with Sean on my last scene, it was really nice, [but,] I’m a bit sad that he’s not coming back, but I think there’s going to be lots of other people to come.”

Sean's feet look nicer than that. One only has to remember the scene from GoT where he was laid up in bed after getting injured and his bare foot was so prominent, to know that his feet are nice and sexy.

The killer foot scene is in Caravaggio - I've never been much for feet, but his are worthy of more than a second glance!

Thanks, patch! That'll get me through a long day of volunteering at the history museum (busloads of rugrats are going to descend on the place, so they need extra help).

my very good friends: I didn't like "Game of Thrones", a great succes in Spain, but I didn't like it, GOT bores me

najinboulder · « **Reply #1274 on:** July 17, 2011, 11:31:22 AM »

That's okay galamb. The genre isn't for everyone. Glad you have the courage to admit it here. The question is did you think Sean did a good job or not?
