It seemed the team behind House of the Dragon weren’t expecting to take out the Golden Globe for Best Television Series – Drama at the 2023 ceremony, with director Miguel Sapochnik (right) saying in his speech: “As you can tell, we didn’t think we were going to win, so I didn’t get ready.”
Sapochnik was seemingly referencing not having a speech prepared nor wearing a tie on-stage to accept the award, with the show being up against television titans Better Call Saul, The Crown, Ozark and Severance.
Fans, however, noticed Milly Alcock – pictured embracing Emma D’Arcy, who plays the older Rhaenyra Targaryen – also may not have expected the win, with many poking fun at her antics and speculating she was drunk.
Her on-stage behaviour quickly went viral.
