13. Hugo Culverhouse - Stableboy

Fine, this was a very, very brief role but fans still remember it to this day. This brief cameo was so badly performed by Hugo Culverhouse it's genuinely infamous.

This character is accidentally stabbed to death by Arya when he tries to turn her in to the Lannisters after her father is captured. Not only is Culverhouse's line delivery painfully bad, but his expression when he is stabbed is unintentionally hilarious. In fact, this entire scene was an example of unintentional hilarity and considering that this was supposed to be a pretty dark moment, it really shouldn't have been.

It's impressive that Hugo Culverhouse cemented himself so firmly into the minds of viewers despite only being in it for thirty seconds; it's just a shame he didn't do so in a more positive way.

The only reason this performance isn't higher is because it was so brief. If it had been a larger role it probably would've been number one.
