She said , “ I ’ve basically just been waterboarded for 10 hour . ” Now , Lena Headey is speak out about how much it sucked and how she even tried to minify the reverse .

I ’m not go to go into item about what Waddingham experienced shooting the season six close , “ The idle words of Winter , ” because we already did that . Youcan read it hereif you want to know how have it away up it all was ( and how even more fucked - up it could have been ) . In shortsighted , the situation sucked and it ’s horrible that Waddingham had to go through that . Even though they want it to feel reliable — at the price of Waddingham ’s health and well - being , I might add — Headey noted how at one level even she felt things had gone too far and decided to take matters into her own hands . She stopped aiming the wine-coloured at Waddington ’s mouth . “ I was like , ‘ I ’m just going to do a light salad dressing drizzle around her nun ’s [ cloth headdress ] , ’ ” she said .

Gunpowder Milkshake — which hopefully does n’t sport 10 hours of a woman having prune juice poured on her side — start streaming on Netflix on July 14 .
