Yep.  Gorgeous redhead with a kinda husky, sultry, come-here-and-sex-me voice and what on Downton Abbey seemed to be a pretty pronounced Scottish accent.  Me likey.  :drool:

And she can act.  She previously won a Scottish BAFTA award for Best New Talent, or something similar.

Been waiting to see Ygritte, hers was 1 of my favorite parts in the book, and as for the series it will be a good turn of events for the viewers to get to see a love story thats a trillion times better than twilight

Here's an interview with Rose Leslie about Ygritte:
http://www.accesshol...e_article_64189

She also clarifies the Ygritte pronunciation used on the show: 'eee-grit'. I like that choice.

I've always said Eee-grit, but that is maybe because French is my first language.

I've always used less of a "long e" soung -- I-grit.  Good to have some clarification on that.

Thought she was good in the role so far. Will see how it expands over the coming weeks.

Though as she is a pretty redhead I'm probably going to subconsciously ignore any faults and drool over her...she can make covering up fully in parka's sexy...

I was hoping so much to hear "You know nothing, Jon Snow" every time he answered one of her questions or provocations.

I don't think she really says that until later, if I recall.  However, I like the actress playing the part.  I usually went by Roy Dotrice's way of saying it, which is EEE grit

Yeah I think you're right. But still, it wouldn't hurt and it'd be a nice pick-me-up for book readers after all the b.s. the writers have added in. That line is just enchanting in a way.
