Hottest Game of Thrones Character

This is just a bit of fun, and a bit out of time.

In a recent discussion, the question of who is the hottest Game of Thrones character came up. My answer was Stannis Baratheon (Stephen Dillane). That was met with howls of laughter and criticism, much to my surprise and embarrassment:-(

So my question is, would Stannis do?

YABU = What are you thinking! Why on Westeros would you even think that!
YANBU = Winter is coming! He would adequately warm the bed.

In the event that you disagree ( and can still remember GOT!), who would you like to be locked in the Red Keep with?

Jaime Lannister of course

ultragroupie · 03/10/2020 14:47

The crazy uncle from the iron islands 🥰

Also have to put a shout in for Theon Greyjoy before he lost his equipment , don’t want him to feel left out.

Sorry cant get over the poster who described stannis burning his daughter alive as a "parenting fail" GrinGrin

Surprised at how few people have said gendry. It's definitely him for me. I was convinced during the series that he was going to end up on the throne! Always had a bit of a thing for him in skins as well.

Bronn all the way.
I adore Jerome Flynn

romany4 · 03/10/2020 15:11

Ser Davos too. Because he's got a kind face ....

@WinterIsComingKnitFaster

Even the Freys greencarpet?

Jaime and Ser Jorah for me. But I can’t believe no one’s gone for Rhaegar Targaryen. Or Renly or Loras Tyrell (I realise there are certain issues with them but nothing compared to Ramsay Bolton for example).

Impressed by the open mindedness of the Grey Worm fans.

Because Rhaegar was a HUGE let down?

It's a bug bear of mine. A woman is described as OK looking in a book, and the director casts a total hottie. A man is described as sex on legs and they cast... A bloke.

Gimme Viserys every day. He was the insane schoolboy in Doctor Who, Human Nature. The crazy eyes clearly do it for me Grin

GertrudeKerfuffle · 03/10/2020 15:12

So I get to keep Ser Beric Dondarrion all for myself by the looks of it Grin What a voice! What a - ahem- hot sword!

kungfupannda · 03/10/2020 15:19

Oberyn Martell by a very long shot.
If he was busy, I'd slum it with Jaime and Beric.

kungfupannda · 03/10/2020 15:20

Cross posted with @GertrudeKerfuffle re Beric. Nope, sorry!

It's definitely the voice.

WinterIsComingKnitFaster · 03/10/2020 15:21

I had totally forgotten Ser Arthur Dayne. The man who Jaime Lannister wishes he was. Mmmmm.

ErrolTheDragon · 03/10/2020 15:35

You might like him in Counterpart. (Not my cup,of tea at all but each to their own)

ErrolTheDragon · 03/10/2020 15:36

Surprised at how few people have said gendry.

He's probably a bit young for some of us.Grin

Lantern156 · 03/10/2020 15:36

Dany, obvs

Dammit!

TyroBurningDownTheCloset · 03/10/2020 15:55

He's probably a bit young for some of us.

The actor's in his thirties!

The character, however, is the oldest-looking fifteen year old I've ever seen on TV.

As for all these Beric-lovers... D'you mean back when he was in one piece, or are you all lusting after someone with a body full of terminal wounds?

BetsyBigNose · 03/10/2020 16:01

Khal Drogo or The Hound. I quite fancy a bit of Ramsey Bolton too, but suspect he's a bit too much of a bad boy for me!

easterbuns1 · 03/10/2020 16:01

Ramsey Bolton. Was utterly obsessed with him.

bibbitybobbitycats · 03/10/2020 16:01

Khal Drogo. Also Xaro Xhoan Daxos (even though he was a right bastard). Ellaria Sand.

LadyCatStark · 03/10/2020 16:08

1 Ramsey Bolton (it’s the slightly vampirism teeth 🤷‍♀️)
2 Jon Snow
3 Gendry

I’m definitely a fan of sexy bastards 😂

Theploughwasshowingandorion · 03/10/2020 16:09

Margaery Tyrell 100% (well Natalie Dormer) (and she totally deserved better throughout!)

mrshonda · 03/10/2020 16:15

Ser Jorah Mormont all the way

Purplepixiedust · 03/10/2020 16:16

I would be happy with

Khal Drogo
Ser Jorah
John Snow

Stanis isn’t for me.

ErrolTheDragon · 03/10/2020 16:46

The actor's in his thirties!

Like I said, too young.Grin

Ludoole · 03/10/2020 16:53

Tyrion - Peter Dinklage. Funny, handsome, dry sense of humour. What more could a girl want? Wink
