Turner on Young Sansa: "She sees the world through rose-tinted glasses at the very beginning. She is completely oblivious to who the royal family are. It's like any Justin Bieber fan — they don't realise Justin has his darkness about him. David and Dan always told me, 'Look at Joffrey as if he's Justin Bieber and imagine that life.'"
On Sansa's evolution through the series: "In the beginning, I was jealous of Maisie because she got to do all these sword fights and be the badass. I was like, 'I know my character is very powerful.' Sansa adapts better than Arya. If Arya was in Sansa's situation at the beginning, she would have had her head cut off. And if Sansa had been in Arya's position, Sansa would have been bullied to death. . . . It was really frustrating how slow it was, but it just makes it all the more satisfying. I'm happy she's only just coming into her power now."
