LENA HEADEY: I mean it's been
 absolutely life-changing
to take a character through
eight years of... evolution.
Um, it's just been brilliant,
you know.
I'm incredibly grateful.

I remember, very clearly,
the pilot.
 We shot in Scotland and...
I was like, "This could just be
a pilot," you know what I mean?
Another job
that doesn't go anywhere,
but you make the most of it.
 Yeah, I remember everybody
 clear--
 I remember baby Sophie
and baby Maisie and baby Isaac.
And now they're, you know,
out there. Full grown.
 There's so many people
 I haven't had...
a chance to work with, but...
 Pete and Nikolaj,
 I love working with them.
 And Charles Dance
 and Jack Gleeson
and Conleth, I think those were
my... kind of nucleus
and I loved every minute
with each of them.
It's gonna make me cry.
 As an actor, you work and work
 and work, and you audition,
 and you don't get parts,
 and you do get parts,
and sometimes
they're great experiences,
and sometimes,
they're really shitty.
Um,
and this has been incredible.
I've had such great material
to work with.
 Every time I opened a script,
 I was like, "Oh my god!"
I have-- for me, personally,
just to play these moments
has been really extraordinary
and good fun..
 I really enjoyed the scene
 with Mark Addy,
way back in season one,
just 'cause it was so intense
and it was like
pages and pages long,
and it was really unexpected
from those two characters
 to be that kind of intimate
 and honest.
Sometimes I don't know
what holds it together.
Our marriage.
-(LAUGHS HYSTERICALLY)
-(CHUCKLES)
HEADEY: You get a glimpse
 into her marriage
with Robert Baratheon
and it sort of goes some way
to explaining who Cersei is
and why she...
then behaves how she does.
CERSEI LANNISTER:
Was it ever possible for us?
Was there ever a time,
ever a moment?
No.
My advice to Cersei...
(CHUCKLES)
If you meet a man called
the High Sparrow,
steer fucking clear of him.
Am I free to go?
After your atonement.
Do you remember Dontos
who was like the clown?
 I've been begging Michelle
 for ages--
He had this amazing hat
that she made (CHUCKLES)
that I'm still obsessed with,
but I think it's gone somewhere.
But, I was-- every year,
I was like,
"Can I-- Can I just have it?"
And she's like, "No."
And I was like, "Oh."
 But that's the one thing
 I would to have. That hat.
 We're nearly at the end now.
 I mean, I've got very few days
 left,
and I think I'm gonna feel
very emotional
about saying goodbye
to all of it.
 The joy of coming back
 and seeing everybody again.
 You know,
 everyone's become family now,
and it's all very familiar
in the best way.
Yeah, it's gonna be very strange
without it.
It's been eight years, you know.
I'll miss it.
