    Can anyone name a single American actor that is in Game of Trones? It dawned on my wife and I last night that there aren't any!

    • Its refreshing. Many American actors sound plain silly putting on european sounding accents. Its rarely believable.shellie
    • But they aren't in Europe. It's make believe places innit. They can sound how they like. Dinklage has Canadian accent no?HAYZ1LLLA
    • The dwarf.detritus
    • Tyrian, Cerse, Jamie Lannister, the hound. That's all I can think of... Not many for sureset
    • Just checked and I got that totally wrong. Only one is Tyrian... Thought Jamie definitely was as the English accent sounds off, but he's Danish..set
    • Oh my bad. Thought Dinklage was Canadian. That's it then. Just him.HAYZ1LLLA
    • English actors give it the authentic medieval feel. I have to say though that Dinklage is one of the best actors in it.set
    • While reading the books, I always got the sense that the lands it took place in were based on England, specifically.monospaced
    • Cheaper actors! Filming started in Ireland I believe for the most part, then Spain and Iceland. Made senses!mugwart
    • "Britain, specifically".detritus
    • Yes, I noticed after I'd posted that I said English like an idiot..set
    • I just followed what set said because I won't pretend to know any better, but thanks for calling me out mr. literalmonospaced
