More than a decade before Oona Chaplin could be seen menacing Jake Sully (Sam Worthington)\u00a0and Neytiri (Zoe Salda\u00f1a) in\u00a0“Avatar: Fire and Ash,” she faced off against\u00a0Benedict Cumberbatch on BBC’s “Sherlock.”<\/a> In the Season 2 premiere, “A Scandal in Belgravia,” Chaplin plays a schoolteacher with whom Dr. John Watson (Martin Freeman) has a brief relationship.<\/p>\n The episode marks the only appearance of Chaplin’s “Sherlock” character, Jeanette, and her interactions with the titular detective showcase his anti-social tendencies. At a 221B Baker Street Christmas party, Sherlock calls Jeanette “Sarah,” mistaking her for one of Watson’s previous girlfriends. When Watson apologizes on Sherlock’s behalf, Cumberbatch’s cad carries on, “No, I can get this. Sarah was the doctor, then there was the one with the spots, and the one with the nose, and then who was after the boring teacher?”\u00a0<\/p>\n “Nobody,” responds Jeanette. Apparently, she is the “boring teacher.”\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n Chaplin’s other most notable role would have to be Talisa Maegyr in HBO’s “Game of Thrones.” Over the course of 11 episodes, Talisa serves a crucial storyline purpose when she marries Robb Stark (Richard Madden) and carries their unborn child. Tragically, Talisa is also a key part\u00a0of one of the most infamous “Thrones” episodes: “The Rains of Castamere” and its deeply upsetting\u00a0Red Wedding<\/a>.<\/p>\n
