Charting A Course Through The Mundane
There’s only a handful of Game Of Thrones episodes left and as the tension mounts and fans get nervous over the fate of their favourite characters, the comedy band The Merkins have released a fantastic GOT themed parody of Seven Nation Army by the White Stripes.
Entitled Seven Kingdom Army it has band members dressed as White Walkers belting out a tune which I will probably constantly think about when we finally watch The Knight King and his un-dead horde descend upon Winterfell.
I have the distinct feeling that the forthcoming fifth series of Game Of Thrones will be soaked in blood.
Here’s the latest trailer for the award winning series.
Ennio Morricone would be proud.
Here’s a glorious western cover of the Game Of Thrones theme tune by Ben Dan Productions.
If you’re a fan of Game Of Thrones then you’ll know that the character The Mountain is played by Hafþór Júlíus “Thor” Björnsson who hails from Iceland and who also happens to be the strongest man in Europe.
Earlier this year he lifted the title in style in Leeds, UK, (after all it’s what the man lives and trains for), his Game Of Thrones gig is a little side job. He celebrated winning the Atlas stone event by ripping his t-shirt from his torso like it was a sheet of kitchen roll, before declaring:
“I am the future of strength, as I am the King of stones.”
And who in their right mind would argue with that?
Forget Game Of Thrones this series along with the catchy opening theme tune is what you should be watching this year.
Jon Snow has a hard challenge ahead. He has to win the respect of the men from the Night’s Watch. He might just do it thanks to an 80s training montage.

Would it come as a surprise if I told you one of Danny Dyer’s films features on the list? Didn’t think so.
Here it is, a quick look at the up and coming season three of the critically acclaimed fantasy series Game Of Thrones.
It gives the viewer an appreciation of the amount of work and logistics which go into each season of this remarkable series. We also get to have a sneak peak at some of the new cast members and locations.
