Games Of Thrones star Jerome Flynn, 61, makes a rare red carpet appearance as he attends the star-studded launch of Cirque Du Soleil's Corteo at Royal Albert Hall


The popular actor made a rare red carpet appearance with family members at the London extravaganza, which runs from January 9 to March 2.

Jerome was fascinated by Cohen’s spiritual teachings, essentially a reworking of Hindu mysticism and Tibetan Buddhism dressed up for Western consumption, and at the height of his fame fled to Rishikesh in India on a two-week retreat. On his return to Britain in 1996 he threw everything in with Cohen’s sect, abandoning his career and moving into a commune in North London with a group of fellow believers, including his then girlfriend, Anna Jacobs. The show led to him being cast in Ripper Street, having starred as Detective Sergeant Bennet Drake for four seasons between 2012–2016 - with the role even earning him a BAFTA nomination.
