Game of Thrones: Post-Mortem of “High Sparrow”
Heads rolled in the third episode of this season of Game of Thrones– well, at least one did and it was long overdue- and uncomfortable alliances were made. “High Sparrow” featured Jon Snow settling into his role as Lord Commander, Sansa Stark finding out she’s going home, and Brienne of Tarth opening up about her painful past. Here are the cast and writers of the show shedding some light on last night’s episode.
“She’s at the hands of another monster,” says Sophie Turner of Sansa’s new fiance while talking with the New York Times. She explains that, “If anyone can deal with these kinds of people, it’s Sansa.” The actress adds that Sansa “knows how to tiptoe around psychopaths,” undoubtedly because of her time spent with Joffrey.
