Video: Yet another Game of Thrones trailer
This one is fantastic (I can’t help it, I love Florence and the Machine) with a lot of new scenes (Tyrion in armor! The ‘ashes’ line!) I have to say I really appreciate that the TV series is rounding out Cersei.

Dinklage wins Emmy for Game of Thrones

Game of Thrones did win a Creative Arts Emmy last week for Main Title Design.
(Also very touching: The Best Comedy Actresses.)
