Game Of Thrones actor Ian Beattie says playing Meryn Trant was ‘one of the greatest challenges’ of his acting career so far.
Speaking at MCM London, Ian explained how difficult it was to play the villainous character, who enjoyed raping young girls.
That is, until he came to a bloody end thanks to Arya Stark.
‘It was so awful, I mean I have three kids at home,’ the actor said. ‘And if anyone touched any of my children, let me tell you something, it would take that person longer to die than Meryn.
‘So yeah, they were extraordinarily upsetting scenes to do, one of the greatest challenges of my acting career so far.’
