[Will Champion] - Thanks man, cool. [Liam Neeson narration] In an exclusive Red Nose Day revelation, we've discovered that the British band are secretly working on a musical of TV sensation, Game of Thrones. [Chris Martin] This is the best idea we've ever had. (guitar and vocals) ♪ Bom, bom, bom, bada tippidom.♪ (Chris Martin speaks while music continues in background) It's just been the most amazing creative outpouring. [Will Champion] Trust me ♪ Bom, bom, bom, baba babadom ♪ Wait, wait, how many pappadums? They're babadoms. [Narration] The band had been long-time fans of the show. Bearded drummer Will Champion actually took time off at one point to act in the famous Red Wedding episode. [Footage of "The Rains of Castamere" with an arrow pointing at Will Champion, while a bell dinging] They've gathered in the Henson recording studio in Los Angeles to work up the 16 songs required for a full Broadway stage production. (keyboard) - Nice! Have you got any lyrics? - Yeah. ♪ Around the world my heart had to roam ♪ [Mark Addy] Well, when I first heard about it I was a little bit sceptical, but now I'm completely convinced: it's a horrible idea. ♪ Closer to ho-o-ome ♪ [Diana Rigg] It's the worst idea I've ever heard. ♪ A family tree ... ♪ (music continues as female voiceover begins) [Emilia Clarke] One word that springs to mind when I'm thinking about this project is "Titanic."

[Chris Martin] Fellows, how ya doin'? [Chris Martin] I had a moment of inspiration, it was a flash of genius -- get the whole cast to come in. Everyone thought it was a brilliant idea, so that's what's happening. It's a big day, big day for us. [Narrator] All the actors are gathering to hear the songs performed for the first time. [Camera pans, the chairs are empty...] Well, not all of them. [... outside of Ewan Rewon and Mark Addy.] More ... two. [Mark Addy] I was told Sean Bean was gonna be here. He owes me a fiver. [Ewan Rewon] Well, no, I don't think it is quite as many as the band would have hoped, but ... still a very exciting day! [Chris Martin] This is called "Rastafarian Targaryen." (reggae music) ♪ Yi-yi-yi-yi ♪ ♪ Rastafarian Targaryen ♪ ♪ I got some dragons and they're pretty scary-in ♪ (interviewer) So Chris, how you think it's going? [Chris Martin] Stunning. Stunning. People are literally stunned. Not Synced (interviewer) And what if some of them can't sing? [Chris Martin] Well, the funny thing is, they can sing. [Cut to the band playing while Ewan and Mark sing along] ♪ Bom, bom, bom baba ♪ (Chris Martin) ......Snappy! Come on. No, no, sorry, sorry. (band member) I'm sure he'll come back. With these things it's always step by step. Um, 50 percent of the cast seem really into it, so, um ... I think we're onto something really special. (piano) (narrator) It's been a slightly disappointing day. But then ... Hey Chris. I'm sorry I'm late. Oh my god. Jon Snow. I knew you'd come. I'd never let you down, man. Thank you, Jon Snow. It's Kit. (Chris Martin whispers) Thank you, Kit Snow. Right. What we got, man? (music) (narrator) It's day two of the workshop, (music in background) and suddenly things take a turn for the better with a phone call from Jon Snow, and the offer of free food, a huge chunk of the cast have arrived. - Hey man! Good to see you, man! - Hi, how ya doin'? You too. - Love your shirt, man. - You look great. (music, clapping) (narrator) It's been a very emotional morning. I'll have the nuggets, please. Yep, there's one left. Oh, lovely! Ahh ... I sense this choice will not end well for you. I would suggest the drumsticks. Oh. Oh, well, drumsticks it is, then, apparently. Cheers.
