‘Game of Thrones changed my life’: Meet the farmer, the superfan and the three-eyed raven

They know him as the animal man of Northern Ireland. This week we meet Kenny Gracey – the medieval livestock owner whose life has been transformed by the hit TV series Game Of Thrones.

It’s not just on-screen talent that has felt the Thrones effect – its success has pumped million into Northern Ireland’s economy. For farmer Kenny, Thrones saved his business.
