UK actor Charles Dance discovered he is inextricably linked to his Game Of Thrones character while on the set of mini-series Deadline Gallipoli.
One-by-one cast, crew and extras took the opportunity to privately and politely quiz Dance, who played Tywin Lannister until he was killed-off in season four, about the cult HBO series.
Watching on and a little bemused by it all was emerging actor Joel Jackson.
Jackson plays war correspondent Charles Bean in Deadline Gallipoli, which begins Sunday, April 19, while Dance stars as General Ian Hamilton.
At the same time the two-part mini-series was being filmed the fourth season of Game Of Thrones was coming to an end.
Jackson had never watched an episode and it's why he was sheepish when Dance asked if he'd ever seen it.
"I said no," Jackson told AAP.
"He said, `good, good', and so we bonded over that and we just talked about ukuleles, writing songs and he was a great mentor and co-actor.
"That's why we got along so well, because I wasn't bugging him about it.
"When he was getting made-up and what not, he was getting questioned by extras and others wanting to know more about it and how it was like on set."
Dance was the perfect mentor for Jackson on his first major production since he graduating from NIDA at the end of 2013.
