DOMINIK: I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT IS NEARLY THIRTY YEARS AGO!!!

The first book in the Game of Thrones series was released on this day in 1996.

Did you read the books? Watch the TV show?

I thought the first three books were immense, four and five? Less so.

TV show? Magnificent and epic but, again, the last two seasons? Disappointing. And I thought the ending was TERRIBLE! Probably the most disappointing final episode of a TV episode EVER (barring maybe the last episode of the original run on Dexter!)

DOMINIK: SIX O CLOCK CLUB FRIDAY

If you could have a video of any moment of your life... what would it be?

We didn't have a camcorder growing up - so I would love a video of me with my Granny Diamond walking her dog on the beach in my hometown. My happy place in childhood!
