Author Topic: Tweet Quoted Live on TV  (Read 845 times)

Hello!
Today, at roughly 10:30pm (GMT+1), I had a tweet quoted live on TV, on Thronecast, the Sky Atlantic follow-up programme for Game of Thrones!

Jamie East, a comedian and co-host, read out my name, "Sir Dooble", and my question to Jessica Henwick, the actress who plays Nymeria Sand, one of the Sand Snakes (the one with the whip!).

Here's the tweet!

@mrjamieeast @thronecast @JHenwick @mrmichaelball For Jessica, who would win in a fight? Nymeria Sand or Nymeria the Direwolf?


I don't have a clip to show, since the programme just aired and I watch it live without any form of playback so I couldn't capture it. But if I find one I'll be sure to post it.
But I'm really excited, because I've been trying to get one of my tweets read out on the show for weeks now!

Please, share any times you've had something you said/did mentioned on TV!

I'd wish this'd happen to me..

You have to keep trying and believe in yourself!
Here are tweets of mine that didn't make it. :(

#GoTAtlantic I think you can find the god of Tits and Wine in Baelish's brothel. It's two gods though, so you pay double.
#GoTAtlantic Margaery and Cersei ought to end up competing over Tommen, trying to lure him with sweets, like a dispute over a dog.
#GoTAtlantic When Ramsay eventually leaves the show does Iwan plan to open a sausage shop, or a barbers with Alfie Allen?
#GoTAtlantic For Iwan, are you able to enter a chippies and order a sausage without getting strange looks anymore?
#GoTAtlantic Will it ever be safe to visit a brothel again?
@mrjamieeast @Daniel_Portman @thronecast How do you feel about the dying Brothel trade in Westeros? First it's freebies, now ransacking.

Yeah, luckily they didn't though!

But they did say Sir Dooble, rather than my actual name, which is on my account. @SirDooble is just my twitter handle.
They've read out people's real names before, so it's a bit odd.
Probably thought he'd have a harder time butchering Sir Dooble than my actual name.

wait what
your name isnt sir dooble?!?!
