Game of Thrones actress Hannah Waddingham recently disclosed that the fate of her character, Septa Unella, was initially intended to be far more gruesome than what viewers witnessed on screen. In a series known for its shocking twists and character deaths, Septa Unella's demise was particularly brutal, but it was not the original plan.
Septa Unella met her end in Season 6 at the hands of Cersei Lannister, who sought revenge for the humiliation she endured during her walk of shame orchestrated by the High Sparrow and his followers. Cersei's retribution involved torturing Septa Unella by waterboarding her with wine and leaving her in the hands of Ser Gregor Clegane, also known as the Mountain, implying a slow and agonizing death.
