Being honest... upon first hearing the name "James Cosmo", how many of us immediately knew who that was? It was only after I googled it and said "Ooooh, Jeor Mormont!" that I had any idea who he was  . Also, before CBB, if he'd walked up to my counter to place a bet on the 3.15 at Wolverhampton, I wouldn't have known the difference between him and any other white-haired punter  .
(Although to be fair, I didn't realise I was placing £2000 bets for a millionaire English Premiership footballer until another customer told me who he was  )

I'm a huge GOTs fan as well and I didn't realise he was the Lord Commander either until it was pointed out to me. Gary busey and Vinnie Jones i would have instantly knew both by face and by name, that's the difference imo
