"Sean Bean has admitted that he found filming the major twist in the latest episode of Game of Thrones &amp;quot;eeries and creepy&amp;quot;. Bean&amp;#039;s lead character Ned Stark was killed off in the penultimate episode &amp;#039;Baelor&amp;#039;, which aired on HBO last night. The British actor confessed that he was shocked by Ned&amp;#039;s exit and claimed that watching his own decapitation was &amp;quot;weird&amp;quot;. Speaking about the prop dummy head, he told TV Guide: &amp;quot;I kind of saw it knocking around on set. I saw someone carrying it around one day and I had a look at it. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s quite good, but it&amp;#039;s quite eerie and creepy to see something like that. It&amp;#039;s a weird feeling.&amp;quot; Bean said of Stark&amp;#039;s death at the hands of King Joffrey (Jack Gleeson): &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s just a sad moment because he dies serving his family&amp;#039;s children. His daughters are watching from the crowd and they see him beheaded. It&amp;#039;s a big moment, not so much about blood and horror, but more about human emotions and sadness and the tragedy and shock of it.&amp;quot; He added: &amp;quot;Nobody can believe it, even the characters who are corrupt. The Queen and Littlefinger and Varys are looking around in astonishment because they can&amp;#039;t believe that this guy, this young King has done this. He&amp;#039;s gone against everyone. It&amp;#039;s a big step to actually take, to chop off Ned Stark&amp;#039;s head.&amp;quot; Game of Thrones concludes next Sunday at 9pm on HBO in the US, while episode nine airs tonight at 9pm on Sky Atlantic in the UK. &amp;gt; Sean Bean: Game of Thrones twist is courageous Watch our Game of Thrones interview with Nikolaj Coster-Waldau below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
