"I've got some good moments in season eight; I've got some moments. "I do two things that only a few people have done in Game of Thrones, which I'm very proud of.

Recalling what it was like to join the show, he said:
"When you're an actor, you always want to be a part of something successful - because success equals more jobs and a better pay, it's that simple. "I knew when I became a part of Game of Thrones, it was one of the biggest shows in the world. So, that was not a concern of mine. "It was just buckle up and enjoy it."And while he was a "massive fan" of Game of Thrones before joining the show, he admitted that he hasn't been able to watch much of it since.
He continued:
"I've seen all the five seasons prior [to joining the show]. "But the moment I became apart of it, I have not seen anything since - because now I know how they make the dragon. "It's a little guy with a green stick and a tennis ball, and it's like 'look at the dragon'. You're like, that's it?"
