The actors who appeared for a special Q&A session included Masie Williams (Arya Stark), John Bradley (Samwell Tarly), Kristian Nairn (Hodor), Sibel Kekilli (Shae) and writer George R.R. Martin. Fans were invited to ask questions and Williams showed just how much she understands her character Arya. When questioned who out of Arya's kill list she felt Arya would take care of first, Williams felt it would be Joffrey. The fan probed further and asked how Arya would likely to it, to which Williams replied: "Stick him with the pointy end! I'm kidding. Arya would kill Joffrey in the most humiliating way possible and sticking him with the pointy end seems like the really easy way out. Something like, when people find him he's in a really embarrassing position, naked. That would be hilarious I think." For anyone who's read the books George R.R. Martin has other plans!
