Fabien Frankel (actor, Ser Criston Cole in House of the Dragon) seems to have ticklish sides! He gets a very quick side poke from Olivia Cooke while giggling at her answer, and immediately jumps and starts laughing harder! I guess tickling Fabien might be one way to get spoilers for the show?
A little
Fabien Frankel update, though don't get too excited - no videos or photos this time! Someone who attended Megacon Orlando this weekend tells me that for their photo op with Fabien and Matt Smith they suggested a 'tickle war' as prompt. Without further prompting, Matt turned to Fabien and attacked his midsection, quickly tickling his sides of stomach/waist area, with his fingers. This illicited a great reaction from Fabien, who immediately started laughing, squirmed away grabbing at Matt's hands, and mumbled, "Okay, stop, enough!"
Sadly, I'm told that was all the tickling (only a few seconds), and they took a
normal photo, so to speak, but Fabien, apparently, kept an eye on Matt and was a little nervous and/or jumpy the whole time. So, if nothing else, we've another confirmation that Fabien Frankel is quite ticklish on his sides and the rest of the cast knows it! In fact, this story reminded me of Fabien's season one interviews/claims that Paddy Considine liked to to tease and torment him every scene they had together... perhaps one of the pranks Paddy played on him was tickling him?
