Game of Thrones was known for his graphic and brutal scenes, but the attack by Sansa Stark remains a controversial plot point for fans.
Actress Sophie Turner has now defended the show, 10 years after the rape of her character by Ramsay Bolton.
Sophie, now 29 years old, said Sophie that the long -running fantasy series ‘SHONE A Light’ seemed about things that we often avoid.
Spend against Show off Magazine discussed the episode of season two The Old Gods and the New, in which Sansa barely escapes sexual attack.
Sophie, who was around 15 when the scene was filmed, said she “didn’t understand it completely” and “tried to find it out in my young little head.”
Only three seasons later her character was attacked again, this time by her new husband, which gave rise to expressions of fans.
The Joan star admitted that she could understand why the episode was unbent, unbroken, unbroken in such a strong reaction from viewers, but it was an important conversation to have.
“I felt – and still – that Game of Thrones seemed a slight on things that many people said:” Oh God, you can’t show things like that “” – and I understand that it can trigger it – I understand that position completely, “she said.
“But I had the feeling that we actually did a lot of justice to women and the combat women had to fight for hundreds of thousands of years – the patriarchy, are treated as objects and constantly sexually abused – I don’t think there is a woman I know who had no form of it.”
She ‘had more a grasp on what happened’ in the horrible scene, accused of undermining the Sansa office by critics at that time.
While her sister Arya took a path outside the murderous world of warring families, Sansa remained in the hands of the Lannisters.

Sophie added that if the show was broadcast today, they would have made a trigger warning in the episode; However, this was not a standard practice in 2015.

The show took place in the fictional medieval continent of Westeros and concentrated on the warring factions and royal families who each desired to sit on the iron throne.

Sophie recently worked with her Stark Sibling Kit Harington – but their reunion was not exactly pleasant.
For their new film The Dreadful, the couple had to lock their lips in a ‘mean’ experience as she unveiled late night with Seth Meyers.
“We are both gagging,” the actress explained. “Like real, it’s in common – it’s the worst.”
After recommending Kit, 38, for the role, he hesitated to register, and when she read the script well, she saw that it was all ‘kiss, kiss, sex, kiss, sex’.
“I’m like:” Oh, shoot … that’s my brother, “Sophie laughed. “But it’s such a good script that he thought:” We have to do it a bit. ” ‘
Since Game of Thrones packed, most Stark -brothers and sisters have blockbuster career career, with Kit and Richard Madden (Robb Stark) who both play in the leading role in the centuries.
