Headline: Matt Smith corrects interviewer over pronouns blunder

Caption: The 41-year-old star has been promoting the second season of the HBO/Sky Atlantic show House of the Dragon and was interviewed by presenter Sue Perkins at the London premiere on Monday. While chatting with Matt, Sue referred to Rhaenyra Targaryen star Emma D'Arcy as "she" - however Emma has previously made it clear they identify as non-binary and uses they/them pronouns. Gently correcting Sue's blunder, Matt took the opportunity to emphasise Emma's preferences as he reacted to a question about his co-star, saying, "I can't take the credit, (but) I have to say, aren't they brilliant?"
