DVD commentary to listen to: Part 3

On early seasons of Game of Thornes George RR Martin on whose A Song of Fire and Ice novels the show is based would write an episode. For the Second season he wrote Blackwater which was the most spectacular the show had seen up to that point. Most time of the time Martin talks the about the differences between the TV show and his novels. Though there are some things that stand out, Martin thinks that Jerome Flynn who plays the role of Sellsword Bronn had just been a singer who turned to acting which as most people in the UK knows is wrong as Flynn shot to fame in the TV Drama Soldier Soldier which had a scene with Flynn and co-star Robson Green's characters singing at a wedding reception which started off their singing careers in real life. We also get hear about Martin's bug bear of Battle scenes which featured combatants who do not wear helmets. Martin relates on how he witnessed on a previous production he worked on a stunt man's nose accidentally cut off when he was not wearing a helmet. And throughout the episode Martin comments on when characters suffer fatal head injuries or just wounds to the head that they should have worn a helmet. A must for fans of the biggest show in the world today
