> On a on-topic note, I wonder how the show progression is going to be for the youngest actors? Like the child playing Rickon, Art Parkinson, who’ll be 24 by the time the series ends if it keeps the bi-annual schedule? May this be why he’s been kept so off-screen, so we won’t get too attached to the actor?

Yeah, we are looking at ten years or so at least to cover everything, no idea how that could possibly work.
