Game of Thrones - TV Drama

HBO's Game of Thrones TV Drama is based in Belfast.
They are currently casting for real archers to become extras for a sequence of filming that will begin soon.

It is a battle sequence and the archers would be required to fire flaming arrows, which is why they are looking to cast real archers.

They should be males and HBO would be aiming for a specific look and size. This would be paid work.

Should you be interested in submitting photos for consideration please contact Stephen Kirk,
Game of Thrones Extras Coordinator on 07854788877

Patrick Huston - To become the United Kingdom Junior Archery Champion


Patrick Huston - who is a member of East Belfast Junior Archery Club - scored 594 out of a possible 600 points to become the United Kingdom Junior Archery Champion.

The Campbell College student's efforts in Telford, England helped the Northern Ireland Junior Archery Team win the Home Nations Competition for the first time.

Patrick's score matched the UK Under-18 record and he is now hoping to get into the British Junior Squad, and possibly have a crack at qualifying for the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janiero.
