I hope it's not Emilia Clarke though if it was I have a feeling her recent scene wasn't her, a massive body change since Season 1

In a recent report by Tower of the Hand, an esteemed fansite for A Song of Ice and Fire and Game of Thrones, it was confirmed by none other than George R.R. Martin himself that casting for season 4 of Game of Thrones has well and truly begun.

The confirmation came during a Q&A session at ConQuesT 44 in Kansas City. Notes on the content of this session have been recorded on Tower of the Hand, here. The report states that:

?Auditions are being held now for season 4 ? including the Magnar, Mace Tyrell and OBERYN MARTELL!!?

I have only watched the first season and part of the second, starting next week our weekly show night/ game night, we will start watching Game of Thrones now that Doctor Who is over.

I'd stay out the thread :p

Yeah I thought the same, body double!

I thought certain shots were a double which makes no sense.

why didn't it make sense?

:wacko:

The one that looked like her was the most revealing. If you're going to do one, do the whole thing.

The double definitely does not have her butt, which was quite memorable from season 1. :D

'Game of Thrones' is casting new characters for season 4

Game of Thrones' cast is like the mythical hydra: for every character they kill off, two more pop up the next season. It's looking like that'll be the case for the show's fourth season, which airs next year; Game of Thrones is already casting new characters, according to creator George R.R. Martin.

At a recent fan convention, Martin named off several new faces who would be joining the series in 2014 (mild spoilers follow).

Auditions are currently being held for the roles of Styr the Magnar of Thenn, Mace Tyrell, and Oberyn Martell. Don't read the books/have forgotten who those characters are? Here's a quick rundown for you:

Styr the Magnar of Thenn is a wildling leader allied with Mance Rayder (Ciaran Hinds). Styr's role in the books has largely been replaced in the series by Tormund Giantsbane (Kristofer Hivju), so bringing in the character at this point means that the show is continuing to deviate from its source material (not unlike the introduction of Mackenzie Crook's character Orell).

Mace Tyrell is the father of Margaery (Natalie Dormer), and is a rather incompetent and fat Lord (it's the women who control the power in House Tyrell). He'll be arriving for his daughter's wedding to Prince Joffrey, which is pretty much confirmed now to be taking place in season 4.

Oberyn Martell, also known as the Red Viper, is the fan favorite of the bunch. He comes from the southernmost part of Westeros, Dorne, and is called to sit on the King's small council as a representative. He does have an ulterior motive, for making the trip, though -- and it involves the very dangerous Ser Gregor Clegane.

What the ****. I've never been so shocked in my life.

At first, I was like...

And then, I was like...

I knew something was up when the doors closed. And when Catelyn Tully revealed the chain-mail under Roose Bolton's clothing. Even so, I thought Robb and Talisa Stark (and his mother) would get away. The shock hit me the hardest when Talisa was stabbed to death in her stomach. My goodness, I've never been this shocked even by Ned Stark's death at the end of season 1.

Wow!

Talisa's manner of death was really shocking and terrible.

      Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.

      A study by physicist Henry Tye of Cornell University suggests that the universe may not expand forever. Instead, it could eventually stop expanding, begin contracting and end in a "Big Crunch" roughly 20 billion years from now. Maybe not as we now know that time can flow backwards.

      Of course. Simply reverse the polarity.
