Game of Thrones Analysis

Here, we analyse the screen times of all character in the HBO TV Series Game of Thrones (a pretty good really brutal series, btw). Watch it on your own risk.

What are the screentimes?

library("readr")
library("ggplot2")
library("dplyr")
library("ggrepel")

This reads the Game of Thrones dataset from: https://

screentimes <- read_csv("data/GOT_screentimes_1.csv")

Select characters with a high screen time:

screentimes_high <- top_n(screentimes, 10, screentime)

Create a scatter with screentime vs. nr of starred episodes:

ggplot(screentimes, aes(screentime, episodes)) +
  geom_point() +
  geom_text_repel(data = screentimes_high,
                  aes(label = name),
                  min.segment.length = 0)
