Who knew Arya Stark would have such a thing for home-organisation porn? ‘Oh my God,’ says Maisie Williams, the actor who plays Game of Thrones’ baby-faced assassin, drooling over the Instagram feed of the professional organisers behind Gwyneth Paltrow and Mandy Moore’s obsessively curated pantries. ‘Shut up. Look at that! Gaaasp. Hold on...’ She pauses to click on the ‘follow’ button.

‘You know, I spent a bunch of time with Noomi Rapace. She keeps her clothes in colour order and it’s just incredible. I got home after visiting her house and was like, “Right, I am putting my wardrobe in colour order right this minute.” I did, and let me tell you, it feels a-may-zing.’

There’s a moment in every interview when you realise how thoroughly the person across the table diverges from the character through which you first made her acquaintance. With Williams, that moment lands early.

Thankfully. Because although she has played a juvenile killer on Thrones for the past seven years – one who lulls herself to sleep by reciting, over and over again, the roster of enemies she plans to execute to avenge her family – Williams is, in fact, a freshly minted Londoner, with all the newcomer’s zeal that entails.
