Game of Thrones star Peter Dinklage, who plays Tyrion Lannister in the fantasy series, made an unusual acceptance speech when collecting his award at the ceremony last Sunday night.

The actor suggested that the audience and viewers Google the name Martin Henderson when he went on stage to be presented with the Best Supporting Actor in a TV Series gong.

Within minutes a 37-year-old aspiring actor from Somerset ended up being a global trending topic on the social networking site Twitter as people looked to find out why Dinklage had made this peculiar request.

In fact, the reason why Henderson was highlighted in this way by his fellow dwarf was because he had recently suffered an attack which had left him with painful leg and back injuries.
