The 'Shame' Nun From Game of Thrones Looks So Different IRL

Game of Thrones has an abundance of characters who can instantly strike fear into your heart (Ramsay, The Night King, and Joffrey immediately spring to mind). But there’s one who’s arguably icier than the rest: Septa Unella, aka the “Shame Nun” who joined the show last season.

She became instantly well known to all after she trailed Cersei on her walk of shame atonement last season, and she’s since become poor Margaery’s worst nightmare.

In real life, though, she looks pretty different to her character. In fact, she's actually really gorgeous!

Actress Hannah Waddingham, who’s also appeared in films like Into the Woods and Les Misérables, cleans up well when she's not draped in grey robes saying 'shame' over and over again. 

See? Here's her looking hella glam on the red carpet.
