Facts Whilst on the Game of Thrones television series The Wall is a 700 foot structure made of ice, the tunnel that runs through it is made of cement and is dug into the side of the quarry in Northern Ireland where the set for Castle Black is. In the first scene of the series, when the Night’s Watch recruit named Will comes across the horrific discovery of a group of dead wildlings, the creepy girl that had just been changed into a White Walker was not a doll or even a little girl but a 19 year old actress playing the part. In a scene at Castle Black when Jon Snow’s friends in the Night Watch, Pyp and Grenn are eating in the mess hall, the gruel that had been made by the Game of Thrones production designer was particularly disgusting, so bad the actors wouldn’t eat it and if you watch carefully you can see Mark Stanley who plays Grenn wouldn’t even swallow it. Magister Illyrio’s ornate home where he is hosting Varys and Daenerys Targaryen is actually the summer palace of the President of Malta. The palace also served as the gardens of the Red Keep. Even so , the Game of Thrones team was not allowed to film inside. As in the books the Targaryen family have violet eyes, the actors that play Varys and Daenerys shot their early scenes wearing violet contact lenses but the show runners decided the contact lenses were too distracting and took away from the emotion of the scenes so they were scrapped. The filming of the wedding between Khal Drogo and Deanerys Targaryen was almost as eventful as the on screen happenings.
