Hmmm....

James Purefoy (Mance Rayder)

Cliff Simon (Oberyn Martell)

Robert and Philip Glenister (obviously, I want them to play brothers on the show, which ones, no idea!)

John Rhys-Davies (Tormund Giantsbane)

Richard Armitage (would have been great as either Bronn or Ned Stark, alas its too late for either of those)

Judi Dench (Queen of Thorns)

Matthew MacFadyen (ANY ROLE!!)

Henry Cavill (Daario Naharis)

James Frain (Vargo Hoat)

Robert Carlsle (Qyburn)

Idris Elba (ANYONE!!)

I think they'll merge the Kettleback brothers into one character to save money. Clive Standen could play that role well. Phycisal description is pretty much on and he knows some fighting choreography from Robin Hood and Camelot.

Yes! The Kettleblacks maybe, they're a bit older but the show doesn't really stick to book ages anyway... I also love the idea of Robert Carlyle as Qyburn (I pictured him as similar to Michael Emerson (Ben from Lost) reading the book, he can also pull of that quietly creepy thing pretty well!)

Fionnula Flanagan (Queen Of Thorns!)

Henry Ian Cusick (Mance Rayder)

Jaime Murray (Taena Merryweather)

Martin Clunes (Axell Florent)

Pauline McLynn (Queen Selyse)

Stephen Fry (Mace Tyrell)

Ricky Gervais

Helena Bonham Carter

Alan Rickman

Ewan McGregor

Katie McGrath

Marc Warren

Mostly I prefer "unknowns" although I realize they are known to Brits. I spotted Mark Addy pretty quickly, before I knew anything about this series or its books. (Accidently had free HBO during the premiere.) On the other hand, I probably never would have attempted to watch it if Sean Bean were not attached.

Nathan Fillion & fans want it bad. But that ends up being too extra-textual. It becomes stunt casting that distracts.

Who doesn't love Henry Cavill?

Someone mentioned Cillian Murphy on another thread. I think it was a Ramsay Bolton thread.

Maria Doyle Kennedy

Billy Boyd

Clive Owen --I'm not saying that would ever happen.

Jason Lewis

Barry from EastEnders ;)
