Queen Elizabeth II to Visit Game of Thrones Set!

Westeros is about to get a visit from some real-life royalty.
According to her official Twitter page, Queen Elizabeth II is such a fan of HBO's most popular series that she's arranged to visit the Game of Thrones set during the filming of season 5.

"As part of the visit to Northern Ireland, The Queen and The Duke will visit the @GameOfThrones set in the Titanic quarter," says the Royal Tweet.
Of course, we're just speculating that Liz II is a fan (because how could anyone not be?!), but we actually have no idea if the 88-year-old monarch has ever seen the series.
We imagine some of the horse-heart-eating, head-smushing shenanigans might put her off her crumpets.
Still, the Queen should have plenty to talk about with the cast, as the Khaleesi herself, Daenerys Targaryen, is believed to be based on her namesake Elizabeth I.
Sadly, that Queen had no dragons and was, in fact, without badass fire-breathing pets of any kind.
Well, Your Majesty, if you're reading this (we know you are), and you'd like to bone up on GoT before your visit, you can always watch Game of Thrones online at TV Fanatic.
And make sure you at least check out the gallery of Game of Thrones characters who look completely different in real life so that you have some idea who your talking to.
