Lena Headey and Hannah Waddingham have opened up about filming Game of Thrones’ “traumatic” waterboarding scene for real.
Headey, who previously said that Waddingham “had a really s*** time doing that scene”, described the experience as “horrendous”.
Over the past few months, both actors have discussed how challenging they found shooting the scene, which saw Cersei Lannister torture Waddingham’s Septa Unella.
Waddingham, who acknowledged that “it made wicked telly”, said that the experience brought them closer together.
