The HBO fantasy series serves as the inspiration for a set of 15 new first class stamps to “mark the significant British contribution to the production” of the award-winning drama.
According to Royal Mail, “the stamps depict photographic representations of central characters from across all seven seasons in the Game of Thrones series. Each stamp is centred on an individual character and features a montage of images from the series. The result is a set of ten bespoke images that embody the crux of each character’s story.”
actor Stephen Mangan
Based on a web series starring Lisa Kudrow that later moved to Showtime, it stars Mangan as an online psychiatrist. Since most of the action consists of Skype conversations, without lengthy camera set-ups and lighting changes, he was able to indulge his passion for improvisation, and also invite a roster of impressive co-stars to take part. “Richard E Grant plays my therapist. He’s in every episode but we shot all his scenes in one morning. My parents are Charles Dance and Celia Imrie, my sister is Jessica Hynes, Katharine Parkinson is my wife…”
David Tennant, Jessica Hynes and Charles Dance have joined the cast of Stephen Mangan’s new therapy comedy Hang Ups.
Mr Dance described how he worked in an early expresso bar in the South West, went to art school, and worked as stagehand and dresser. He combined working as a labourer with learning Shakespeare as he was completing acting training.
“I was sat there on a building site with the complete works of Shakespeare, and people would say “what are you reading Charlie” and I would say just a book,” he said.
His said he landed his first role in a Welsh regional theatre through “supreme confidence and arrogance” after seeing an advert in the Stage newspaper. Actors need a “hide like a rhino”, he told the audience.
Professor Janice Kay CBE, Provost at the University of Exeter, who hosted the event, said:
‘We were delighted that Charles Dance, one of the cherished cast-list of British actors, was able to join us for our inaugural event which was fully booked in less than 24 hours. His candid comments on 35 years in the performing arts held his audience captivated and provided invaluable insight for students and academics alike’.

Seven decades after the BBC journalist Richard Dimbleby’s haunting dispatch from Bergen-Belsen, his words held undiminished horror as they were played at a London service to mark Holocaust Memorial Day.
Hundreds of survivors of the Holocaust and subsequent genocides, and their relatives, gathered to pay tribute to the millions who died. The broadcaster Jonathan Dimbleby said his father’s report was the first most people knew of the Holocaust.
