VIDEO: Cork pubs brace themselves, Wetherspoons is coming

The world is halfway through season five of Game of Thrones, but in a new video two pubs in Cork clearly think they’re part of the Seven Kingdoms.

In the clip, staff/soldiers at Sober Lane and Electric in Cork city are seen guarding their boundaries and preparing themselves for impending battle.

Are they fighting each other, you wonder? They are seen patrolling opposite sides of the river, so they seem to be enemies.

Nope.

Instead, it is an alliance against the newest challenger to the kingdom from across the Narrow Sea: Wetherspoons.

The Cork-based Viking group, The White Horse Living History Society, supplied troops and armour to the ranks for the scenes.

We really hope they're going to wear that armour while pulling pints, that's something we'd love to see.
