Hit drama finally returns to screens after two years off air – but it’s bad news for raging UK fans

I think if there was any fault with the end of ‘Thrones’, is that we were all so f**king tired, we couldn’t have gone on longer. And so I understand some people thought it was rushed and I might agree with them. But I’m not sure there was any alternative,

We spent a couple of years back and forth developing it. And it just didn’t... nothing got us excited enough. In the end, I kind of backed out and said, ‘I think if we push this any further and keep developing it we could end up with something that’s not good. And that’s the last thing we all want',

What I can tell you is it was HBO that came to me and said, ‘Would you consider this?’ My first reaction was no,

Kit Harington just joined the newest season of Industry (one of the best shows you're not watching), and I'm so, so, so grateful."

Fans were also thrilled to see Kit come on board, with one writing on Twitter/X

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I think there were mistakes made, story-wise, towards the end maybe,

I went in and everyone loved ‘Thrones’; I came out and everyone hated it … I thought, ‘What the f**k is going on?’

I look at pictures of me in that final season and I look exhausted. I look spent. I didn’t have another season in me,
