The girl will be “straight-talking” and “Northern-accented” and is “someone remarkable for her dauntlessness and integrity”. The role is considered a “very nice stand-out part for a strong-minded young girl with a fighting spirit”.
The boy will have a “distinctive face” and must “completely own the scenes that he appears in”.

Fans reckon they saw Catelyn Stark's ghost in the background of season 7...
