- Jerome Flynn, Game of Thrones, TV, 2011-2017. The Dr Feelgood group’s singer-guitarist with one of the great faces of rock! – move mover, Keith Richard – played Ilyn Payne for four early episodes. He then quit on being diagnosed with cancer. (Extraordinary coincidence that his character’s name was pronounced; Ill In Pain). Flynn continued the role – re-drawn as d Bronn – for 34 chapters of the HBO colossus based on George R R Martin’s fantasy novel series, A Song of Ice and Fire, following the bloodthirsty family battles for the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms. Shakespeare without the words.
