Game of Thrones fans – did you spot Stretford star Ian McShane on Monday night’s episode.
McShane guest-starred in episode 7 ‘The Broken Man’ of Game of Thrones season 6, playing Brother Ray, a philosophical reformed killer who is slaughtered with his followers.
He’s there to help reform the Hound — the Hound being Sandor Clegane, who last appeared in the show’s fourth season.
“I think my main use was to re-introduce a character people thought was long gone and who needed some humanity,” the former Stretford High School pupil told Entertainment Weekly.
“The Hound has not been shown much humanity in his life, and he gets a little from Brother Ray and carries that forward into his character, which makes it more interesting for those who watch him.”
