That's beside Shane's Castle. Same for the bits with the rowing boat and the bridge in the distance. They used that in series 1.

Also sometimes it really is a field in Belfast

Sure in Lord of the Rings there's loads of bits in the commentary where they point out a particular shot or scene...yeah that's a car park in the middle of wellington.

You couldn't fake the Iceland landscape though. It's absolutely stunning

I spend most of my time looking behind Jon Snow anytime his scenes are on

Was just at a thing for UPC's new service there, it's pretty impressive actually. Seven days of the RTE player and TV3 player will be available through yer telly, as well as (they say) 1,300 hours of complete box sets and movies.

Sky's deal tying HBO to Sky Atlantic will still be a thorn in their side, as will the ridiculously slow and inconvenient menu system on UPC.

Still pretty impressive though. Maybe the comprehensiveness of it will force Sky's hand and start providing Atlantic to UPC customers in case they start defecting.

The thing is though, the only realistic reason I can think of (the reason I have anyway) for having upc, is that it's cheaper. It's completely shite. I'd defect to sky in a heartbeat if I could afford to. Sky is mad overpriced in the south (and it's already expensive anyway). It is a million times better than upc though.

Well no...I mean if Sky start losing customers (new or existing) because what UPC provide other than Atlantic (ignoring the bollocky interface for a moment) is way better, then they might start to rethink the exclusivity of the channel, if that makes sense.

Cast on the Set of Season 3 - Inside The Walking Dead



They made it into the prison then. Hershel has a beard, T-Dog has 10 fingers & Maggie may actually be English???

Just checked and she graduated from the University of Winchester / King Alfred's College where she studied Drama and English Literature. Musta picked up a bit of an accent along the way. Also - she's much hotter than i gave her credit for;
