Loved her in GoT. Nice to see talent from our shores going to make a global impact.
I too would feel at home in a castle.
Last I heard her and Jon Snow lived near me in a posh old stately home gaff in the Highlands
Of Suffolk
She isn’t half posh. Parents casually leaving their big Scottish estate to kick around France a while, before getting bored and heading back to the manor.
She’s fit but the very definition of a privileged upbringing. I doubt she needed to worry about her next hot meal when she became an actress.
She was also in the Good Fight I think?
If they ever do a live action Horizon Zero Dawn…

It’s also Jambo from The Drums birthday today. Happy birthday big man
Yeah, she is from nobility or something so t she. Has a super posh accent in real life!! Definitely not an Aberdonian accent!
Whoopty do basil
RRRICKY!
She’s so posh she transcends nationality.
It’s disappointing that so many people are essentially saying she’s not Scottish because she’s posh.
I’m a working class guy from the central belt and I’ve always had a bit of an issue with this mentality. Scotland is more than just young teams and buckfast, and I say that as a former buckfast drinking young team member.
Scotland is an insanely beautiful country and while I don’t think we should be kissing the feet of the wealthy, it’s just self defeating to disregard someone’s positive opinion about Scotland just because they’re well off.
What a bunch of inverted snobs we Scots are. It’s Terry Pratchett’s bucket of crabs in real time.
The fucking cheek of her old man taking the kids off to France in a jolly for a few years then standing for the Brexit Party a few years later.
The fucking hypocrisy of these posh cunts.
Can’t even produce a respectable Scottish accent having lived in Aberdeenshire for her formative years, to me that is mental. See ‘Vigil’ for evidence
Celebrity worship has always been a strange thing to me lol. Who cares bro
I was Reading Game of Thrones Clash of Kings after watching the show, and I was confused that I had to change her accent in my head when I read it because I then realised in the TV show version she barely sounded Scottish, but she sounds Scottish when I’m reading her character in my head now and all the wildlings.
Maybe thats just her accent or she was told to tone it down for the show imagine her saying “ya no nu’in joen snaw”
Campaigned with the Tories, dad’s a cretin.
Big fan of the Union. Boot.
