To fancy Ser Jorah from Game of Thrones?

Actually maybe this is one for the weird crushes thread in Chat.

After much persuasion from friends I recently started watching GoT from the start and have really got into it. All of my female friends have been harping on about bloody Jon Snow and Robb Stark but quite frankly as conventionally handsome as they are they do very little for me I'm afraid. There is however something very alluring about Jorah, his rugged handsomeness and unfailing devotion to Daenerys.

It's the same actor who played one of Lady Mary's many suitors in an early series of Downton isn't it? I didn't fancy him in that.

Am I weird?

She seems like a little girl at first (is she supposed to be about 15? She looked about 12)

In the book she is about 12, she has a birthday not long after she is married, can't remember which one now, I think it's her 13th.

I wish they hadn't aged Tommen so much, I thought he was great in the books when he is king and the best part of being a king is stamping things, you can just see a 5 year old liking that best.

At the height of brit pop I shared a lift with someone I vaguely recognised, it was hours later I realised it was Liam Gallagher.

I can't get over the people saying they'd do Littlefinger - why do they think he GOT that nickname? Wink

PoppyField · 09/04/2015 17:53

Yes but Aiden Gillen might be hung like a donkey.

Those of you who get annoyed by Jon Snow - this is great fun to watch Grin At least Kit Harington can take the piss out of himself!

Moln · 09/04/2015 21:18

Is that the same video that sashh post three posts up Grin

He's not called Littlefinger because he has a small penis Allergictoironing !!!!!! It's reference to the peninsulas called "The Fingers":

Catelyn’s mouth grew tight. “Littlefinger,” she murmured. His face swam up before her; a boy’s face, though he was a boy no longer. His father had died several years before, so he was Lord Baelish now, yet still they called him Littlefinger. Her brother Edmure had given him that name, long ago at Riverrun. His family’s modest holdings were on the smallest of the Fingers, and Petyr had been slight and short for his age.

I've only just started watching it and I'm quite fancying Khal Drogo.

EmeraldThief · 14/04/2015 21:49

Part of me wishes I'd never started watching it, because its so bloody addictive.

The love story between Khal Drogo and Danerys was quite sweet, she was at her most likeable with him I think. I think she's starting to show signs of megalomania.

I'm a bit late to this thread but as my username suggests, I would absolutely ruin Ser Jorah :)

Houndlove · 18/04/2015 21:58

You are not alone, I do to, although my heart belongs to another see username, love his voice and well everything I guess. Even gone so far as to look for discussion to see whether he lives. The books and series are starting to deviate. Oh I also fancied Jon Snow, Rob and Ned Stark and Kingslayer, but am devoted to the Hound. LOL

EmeraldThief · 18/04/2015 22:36

I'm still not getting the Jon Snow love. I think he's so overrated as in looks and as in a character.

Jon Snow is a bit mopey, and a bit young.

EmeraldThief · 18/04/2015 22:49

Yes a bit wet, and greasy haired.

Oberyn cries

kungfupannda · 18/04/2015 22:57

But Jorah and Jon Snow could probably go a long way to consoling me.

Maybe with a bit of Stannis.

And Ramsey Bolton Blush

kungfupannda · 18/04/2015 22:58

And wouldn't say no to Jaime.

Purplepixiedust · 18/04/2015 23:33

YAnBU.

For me Jorah, Ned Stark, John snow, Tywin, bronn and the Viper are all contenders.

Purplepixiedust · 18/04/2015 23:36

It's a big no to robb, Jamie, theon, Ramsey and stanis.

EmeraldThief · 18/04/2015 23:53

I think Jorah has a worldy wise quality about him. You can tell that he's lived a bit, it's a very attractive quality. That and the lovely voice. I think Dany is mad not to notice him.

How I like to imagine what is underneath that armour Blush

Archer26 · 19/04/2015 11:38

Oh Jorah is lovely. I want him to be as devoted to me as he is to Daenerys.

But there's something about Littlefingers.....it's his voice.....swoon.......Smile
