Game of Thrones

Much as I like Natalie Dormer in both Elementary and Game of Thrones, and good as it is to highlight one of the female characters in this line-up, I can’t help but feel that some of the others in this ad for the radio version of Neil Gaman’s Neverwhere are a tad more famous – perhaps even the guy on the extreme left. What do you think?

Watch a trailer for Sky Atlantic’s The Tunnel

19 September 2013 Rob Buckley Post a comment

Well, season two of the original is about to air in Denmark and the US remake has just finished adapting the original (two more episodes still to go, though, weirdly enough), so it seems appropriate that the UK/French version of Bron/Broen/The Bridge now has a trailer. Starring Stephen Dillane (The One Game, Game of Thrones) and Clémence Poésy (Harry Potter), guess where The Tunnel is set.

It’ll air on Sky Atlantic and Canal+ next month.
