What do Lizzie Bennet and Borimir Have in Common?

They are now both the heads of House Stark.

Jennifer Ehle and Sean Bean having been cast as Lady Catelyn and Lord Eddard, respectively in the HBO production of a Game of Thrones (pilot).

I am most contented.

I knew about Sean Bean, but hadn't read about Ehle yet! Eeeeee!

(I'm not fond of Catelyn as a character, but I can definitely see Ehle in the role.)

I just think that she can carry off Catelyn's intelligence yet conflicted decision-making process very well.

I think it's great.

Catelyn is only supposed to be mid-30's, though.

[richboye]

well, she got married (and knocked up) when she was 16-17, and her eldest son is only 16-17...

To me, that makes her all the more tragic

Ooh, works for me! Thanks for the update.
