  • Hbo Premieres the Third Season of Game of Thrones
    HBO PREMIERES THE THIRD SEASON OF GAME OF THRONES The new season will premiere simultaneously with the United States on March 31st Miami, FL, March 18, 2013 – The battle for the Iron Throne among the families who rule the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros continues in the third season of the HBO original series, Game of Thrones. Winner of two Emmys® 2011 and six Golden Globes® 2012, the series is based on the famous fantasy books “A Song of Ice and Fire” by George R.R. Martin. HBO Latin America will premiere the third season simultaneously with the United States on March 31st. Many of the events that occurred in the first two seasons will culminate violently, with several of the main characters confronting their destinies. But new challengers for the Iron Throne rise from the most unexpected places. Characters old and new must navigate the demands of family, honor, ambition, love and – above all – survival, as the Westeros civil war rages into autumn. The Lannisters hold absolute dominion over King’s Landing after repelling Stannis Baratheon’s forces, yet Robb Stark –King of the North– still controls much of the South, having yet to lose a battle. In the Far North, Mance Rayder (new character portrayed by Ciaran Hinds) has united the wildlings into the largest army Westeros has ever seen. Only the Night’s Watch stands between him and the Seven Kingdoms. Across the Narrow Sea, Daenerys Targaryen – reunited with her three growing dragons – ventures into Slaver’s Bay in search of ships to take her home and allies to conquer it.

  • Report Card 2014 | 74 Chapter 4: Right to an Adequate Standard of Living
    “ The challenges facing the families we talked to are heartbreaking. Every single parent wants to give their children the best they can. But the impact of five brutal budgets is pushing them to the limits. Many parents have told us that putting food on the table for their children often means going without food themselves.” Fergus Finlay, Chief Executive, Barnardos Children’s Rights Alliance Report Card 2014 | 74 Chapter 4: Right to an Adequate Standard of Living Grade D Boost for local children By Jack Gleeson PARENTS and young children in Finglas are set to benefit from a new childhood programme designed to improve the lives of children in disadvantaged areas. Finglas was one of 13 locations nationwide selected for the €30 million Area-Based Childhood (ABC) early intervention programmes to support health and social projects in several countries. The ABC programme targets investment in evidence-based early In The News interventions – from pregnancy onwards - to improve the lives and futures for children and families living in areas of disadvantage. Local TD Róisín Shortall (Ind) welcomed the inclusion of Finglas in the children and parenting initiative, which was the result of a successful application from Better Finglas, a consortium made up of local groups, schools, Dublin City Council and State agencies. “I fought hard to have a commitment to such funding contained in the Programme for Government,” said Deputy Shortall. “I am glad to see that this is one promise the Government appears to be delivering on. Early intervention programmes are vital if we are ever to break the cycle of poverty and exclusion in large parts of Dublin.“It is about giving kids a chance in life and preventing problems before they begin.

    Summers span decades. Winters can last a lifetime. And the struggle for the Iron Throne has begun. It will stretch from the south, where heat breeds plots, lusts and intrigues; to the vast and savage eastern lands… …all the way to the frozen north, where an 700-foot wall of ice protects the kingdom from the dark forces that lie beyond. Kings and queens, knights and renegades, liars, lords and honest men... All will play the ‘Game of Thrones’. Season 1 Synopsis: Game Of Thrones is a new HBO original television program based on George R. R. Martin’s best-selling ‘A Song Of Ice And Fire’ series. Set in a fictitious world reminiscent of Medieval Europe in which magic exists and the seasons can last for many years, Game Of Thrones follows the violent dynastic struggles of an empire in turmoil. As seven noble families fight for control of the mythical land of Westeros, intrigue abounds. Robert Baratheon, King of Westeros, asks his old friend Eddard Stark to serve as his chief advisor, or “Hand of the King.” Stark learns that more than one family is plotting to take the throne. The Queen's family, the Lannisters, may be hatching an incestuous plot to take control. Across the sea, the last surviving members of the previously deposed ruling family, the Targaryens, are also plotting a return to power. The vast web of conflicts Lord Stark uncovers in the capitol leads to shocking revelations, deadly confrontations and eventually to war. In the Game of Thrones, you win or you die.

  • The Battle for the Iron Throne Continues in Game of Thrones on Hbo
    THE BATTLE FOR THE IRON THRONE CONTINUES IN GAME OF THRONES ON HBO Miami, FL, March 27, 2014 – HBO Latin America announced the premiere of the highly-anticipated fourth season of the triumphant original series GAME OF THRONES, winner of Emmy® and Golden Globe® awards. Full of action, adventure and ambition, the new season will debut on Sunday, April 6th in the Caribbean, simultaneously on the United States. Encouraged by the Red Wedding slaughter in Riverlands, which eliminated many of their Stark enemies, the Lannisters maintain the Iron Throne intact, but will they survive their egos, as well as the increasing threats from the North, South and East? While a determined Stannis Baratheon continues rebuilding his army in Dragonstone, a more immediate threat arrives from the South: the Lannister-loathing “Red Viper of Dorne,” Oberyn Martell. He arrives at King’s Landing to attend Joffrey and Margaery Tyrell’s wedding, and with a hidden agenda. In the North, the depleted Night’s Watch seems overmatched against unstoppable advances of Mance Rayder’s army of wildlings, which in turn is being trailed by an even more formidable enemy: the White Walkers. Meanwhile, Daenerys Targaryen, accompanied by her menacing trio of dragons and army of Unsullied, is on the verge of releasing Meereen, the largest city of Slaver’s Bay, which ultimately could provide enough boats to sail to Westeros and reclaim the Iron Throne. The upcoming fourth season of Game of Thrones features new talent, including Pedro Pascal (Oberyn Martell), Indira Varma (Ellaria Sand, Oberyn’s lover), Roger Ashton-Griffiths (Lord Mace Tyrell), Michiel Huisman (Daario Naharis, an allied mercenary to Daenerys), Yuri Kolokolnikov (Styr, a wildlings chief) and Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson (Ser Gregor Clegane, “The Mountain”).

  • With Dwarves, Daggers and Diana Rigg, the Smash-Hit TV Epic Is Back
    The VERY racy rules of Game of Thrones: With dwarves, daggers and Diana Rigg, the smash-hit TV epic is back... but do you know your Starks from your Baratheons? By Amy Oliver and Claudia Joseph PUBLISHED: 23:20 GMT, 30 March 2013 | UPDATED: 23:21 GMT, 30 March 2013 Heaving bosoms, bloody swordfights and sex scenes that would make Silvio Berlusconi blush, American TV epic Game Of Thrones is not for the weak-hearted. Billed as a cross between Lord Of The Rings and The Sopranos with swords, the HBO show has gripped audiences on both sides of the Atlantic during its previous two seasons. The first ever episode of the £40 million drama, filmed in Northern Ireland, Iceland, Croatia and Morocco, attracted Sky Atlantic’s largest audience to date. Bad heir day: Jack Gleeson as Joffrey and Natalie Dormer as Margaery, conspire to cling on to the Iron Throne Series two eclipsed Mad Men in the ratings and went on to become the most illegally downloaded programme ever internationally. Tomorrow evening, the long-awaited third series, which features a mostly British cast, including Charles Dance, Lena Headey and now Diana Rigg, roars on to our screens at 9pm, just one day after it premieres in America. But for those who can’t remember if they were rooting for the Starks or the Lannisters last season – or even doesn’t know who the Starks or the Lannisters are – The Mail on Sunday has compiled the ultimate Game Of Thrones guide. Here we assess who’s still in the running for the Iron Throne, who’s slept with whom, who’s already met a sticky end and what we can expect in season three.
