There’s no shame in admitting it: If you’re a Game of Thrones fan, then you’re totally in love with Septa Unella a.k.a. the “Shame, Shame” Nun. Since overseeing Cersei Lannister’s naked walk of shame in the Season 5 finale, Unella has entered the Westerosi Hall of Fame for Scene-Stealing Supporting Characters, joining such storied company as Bronn, Jaqen H’ghar, and Ros (RIP).
What was the audition process like?
I was eight months pregnant when I first got the call to audition, so I thought, “There’s no way I’m going to get this role, because I look like a ship in full sail!” I mainly thought it would be nice to meet David [Benioff] and Dan [Weiss], so they could keep me in mind for the next time, when I wasn’t pregnant. But then I got the part! I must have really been channeling some awful thoughts for them to see past all of that.
Cersei’s “Walk of Shame” is one of the most memorable sequences in the novels and the series captures it in all its horrific glory.
Where can fans see you outside of Westeros while we wait for more Game of Thrones? You’ve been a mainstay on the London musical theater scene.
