Game Of Thrones Season 7: 7 Things You Might've Missed In 'The Queen's Justice'

5. The Familiar Extras

As is often the case with Game of Thrones, it can be worth paying some attention to the people in the background. That's certainly true of The Queen's Justice, with quite a few familiar faces popping up.

The most notable is the maid who turns up at Cersei's bed chamber to discover Jaime Lannister lying there, and immediately being noticeable for having a haircut similar to her Queen. It's unclear whether this is mandated by Cersei, or an attempt to get in her good books, but we have seen this character before.

As first noted by Vanity Fair, it's Bernadette, who has long been around King's Landing and is played by Sara Dylan. She's been on the show since Season 2, making her sixth appearance here, and she is a complete Cersei loyalist (she tries to tell Cersei about Sansa getting her period, and does inform her about Shae, which probably means she got the haircut to impress the Queen).

Then there's the soldier in the Stark's army, who, as Reddit notes, is not only one of the show's great survivors, but also a Game of Thrones tour guide in Northern Ireland:

Finally there's Qhono, played by Staz Nair. He's one of the Dothraki on hand to greet Jon Snow here (and take his sword), and made a few appearances last year, including leading Daenerys to Vaes Dothrak in Season 6 and making various threats to her.
