5. She Loves Croatia
Of all of the filming locations that Dormer has been to on the set of Game of Thrones, she insists that Croatia was her favourite thanks to the perfect mixture of the weather, the locals and the gorgeous scenery. During the filming of the Purple Wedding, Dormer says the cast took some time out to make sure they weren't too swept up with the darkness of the scene, and that the Croatian setting posed a problem for the actors in costume:
"We all got to be together for a week. There was a lot of scrabble played on iPads. It was so hot in Croatia so all the girls sat with our skirts hitched up."
Dubronvik doubles as King's Landing, having been chosen for some truly stunning cliff-side vistas.
