Emilia Clarke admits Game of Thrones finale ‘annoyed’ her

Emilia Clarke, aka Daenerys Targaryen, has joined the millions of fans who slammed the Game of Thrones finale, admitting she wasn’t too happy when she read the script.

Millions of disgruntled fans aren’t alone – even Emilia Clarke, “The Mother of Dragons,” couldn’t stand the much-criticised finale of Game of Thrones.

The British actress – who played fan-favourite Daenerys Targaryen – admitted that she wasn’t too happy with the ending when she read the script.

“I knew how I felt when I first read it, and I tried, at every turn, not to consider too much what other people might say,” she told The Sunday Times. “But I did always consider what the fans might think — because we did it for them, and they were the ones who made us successful, so … it’s just polite, isn’t it?”

And Clarke wasn’t too pleased with how her character was offed by nephew-lover Jon Snow.

“I really felt for her,” Clarke said. “And yeah, was I annoyed that Jon Snow didn’t have to deal with something? He got away with murder — literally.”

The “Last Christmas” star also admitted that she thought the long-running series ended a little abruptly.

“We could have spun it out for a little longer.”

Meanwhile, Clarke’s health has a much brighter future in store.

Last year, Clarke publicly announced that, in 2011, she had suffered a subarachnoid haemorrhage caused by a ruptured aneurysm and had a second aneurysm surgically treated in 2013.

Clarke told The Times she waited to disclose her health woes.

“I didn’t want to turn it into this celebrity sob story,” she said.

“It’s done a huge amount of healing for me, being able to open up about it.”
