Emilia Clarke has revealed her brother managed to pinch her the best present from the Game of Thrones set after she failed to retrieve anything when the cameras stopped rolling.
Game of Thrones finished in 2019 with its cast managing grab a few mementos along the way. Kit Harington recently admitted he took a giant stone Jon Snow statue while Emilia complained she couldn’t even get hold of one of Dany’s signature white wigs.
Well, the 33-year-old finally has a piece of the Mother of Dragons at home, thanks to her brother who worked as a cameraman on the fantasy epic.
The star joined Zoe Ball for her BBC Radio 2 show this morning where she moaned: ‘I was a frustratingly good girl – I abided by the rules!’
Thankfully, her brother swooped in to find the perfect keepsake.
‘My amazing brother, who worked on the camera department and worked on the show as well, this Christmas gave me the best Christmas present ever,’ she continued. ‘In one of the battle scenes he got a mate of a mate – he got one of the Targaryen flags.
‘I opened it this Christmas and burst into tears!’
While it may sound handy having a sibling on the Game of Thrones set, remember Emilia was quite often naked for Dany’s incestuous sex scenes.
The actress recently admitted there would be days when the last person on earth you need to be working with is your brother.
‘So there are some days where he’s like, “Oh, I’ll swing by,” because he’s literally in the next unit that’s filming next door,” she laughed on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.
‘And I’m like, “Nah, it’s good! I’m good! You can stay there!”’
Game of Thrones seasons one to eight are available on NOW TV. Zoe Ball’s BBC Radio 2 Show airs weekdays from 6.30am.
