People say Kit is a bad actor? Do they know that isn't even his real accent?!

Its primarily book purists who take issue with the show adaptation of Jon Snow, and their hangups with the differences in versions of the character end up getting blamed on Kit.

He gets called a bad actor because he isn't playing the character exactly as the book states, when in reality that's not how adaptation works. Show Jon is a lot more quiet and stoic but it really works specifically because of Kit. He's not the sass machine that is book Jon but it didn't need to be.

Kit brings so much life and individuality to Jon Snow, but because he is playing a very stoic character his subtle acting gets over looked for others, and book purists blame him for character attributes that are the writers fault not his.

The only time I'd say he isn't really trying is season 7. Kit is practically asleep during season 7 but I do not blame him. His character was being primed as an intelligent, brave and valiant heroic King, and he is side lined very hard and written so out of character it seems Kit really struggled knowing what to do. Hes trying to play the Jon Snow he has developed but they're asking him to play a version of Jon that never existed before that season, and it shows the whole season he has no idea what direction he should be taking his character in. He finds a bit more stride in season 8 because hes used to being given such bad material at that point but season 7 Kit is just a walking meme because hes clearly so fucking fed up with how bad the script is and doesn't bother hiding it. He sends up playing into it like "Okay I'm 900% done with this bullshit and so is Jon so there's my motivation". Which is why we get so many fucking funny facial expressions from Jon that season because both the character and actor are trapped in the dumbest plot with the dumbest people.

Also speaking of the accent, if you want more proof hes really talented at acting, watch scenes of he and Benjen. Or a Jon scene then a Benjen scene. Because Jon and Benjen literally speak exactly the same, they both have the exact same speech mannerisms to really sell their familial relationship and that's not how either actor talks in real life. Its really impressive.

But yeah, since the show ended people sort of take their hangups with Jon's character assasination out on Kit Harington and it's really unfair. He stuck the show out until the end but a character that had been such a massive part of his life was being ruined before his eyes and that clearly took a lot of heart out if his performance and I don't blame him for that.

Because season 1 through 6, Kits acting is absolutely spectacular and severely underrated.

Conan Doyle's Lot No. 249 is coming to BBC this winter

Mark Gatiss is returning to the world of Arthur Conan Doyle for his annual Christmas ghost story for the BBC. According to Deadline, Gatiss has written an adaptation of Conan Doyle's Lot No. 249, which will star Kit Harington and Freddie Fox.

The plot of Doyle's work revolves around a group of students from the University of Oxford. One of them, Abercrombie Smith (Harington), begins to suspect that Edward Bellingham (Fox), an Egyptologist, is using an Egyptian mummy to carry out malevolent attacks against his enemies. The original story was published in Harper's magazine and has been a source of inspiration for numerous adaptations and Egyptian-themed horror works.

Filming on Lot No. 249 recently concluded in Hertfordshire, UK, and it is expected to air this winter on BBC.
