Fans were in shock last night after the drunken 'Blue Smurf' on Peter Kay's Car Share turned out to be a Game of Thrones star.
Despite the fact that many people believed it was camera tricks and the Smurf was actually Peter Kay himself, it was, in fact, Conleth Hill. Or, as you may know him, eunuch Lord Varys.

Seriously, check it out...
Yes, that is him and, yes, he is a Laurence Olivier Award-winning actor. Turns out he's incredibly versatile.
Loads of people were confused...
I am rubbish. Thought Elsie the Smurf was Peter Kay in costume

You've got to admire the fact that he had everyone convinced that he was Peter Kay.
In the BBC series, Peter plays a guy called John. It's quite a simple concept, just a group of mates who work at the same supermarket who car share their commute to work.
However in this episode, they're off to a work party in fancy dress when the random Smurf (called Elsie) manages to nab a lift home.
Was anyone aware that the Smurf lady in Peter Kay's car share was Varys from GOT?! #mindblown

Can't believe the smurf out of Peter Kay's care share is Lord Varys from Game of Thrones #PeterkaysCarShare

I reckon he should win an award for that performance, too.
