Salman Rushdie’s Game for TV ‘garbage’

TOP author Salman Rushdie has revealed he’s a fan of fantasy drama Game Of Thrones — even though he reckons it’s rubbish.

The show, which stars Sean Bean, returns to Sky Atlantic HD next year.

Salman said: “It was garbage, yet very addictive garbage — there’s lots of violence, the women take their clothes off and it’s kind of fun.”

The Satanic Verses author, 64, tuned in as he’s about to pen his own sci-fi show, The Next Series, for Showtime.
