Warning: This feature contains major spoilers for Game of Thrones season 6 episode 2. If you haven't seen it yet, please turn away now because we don't want to spoil it for you.

But it seems like people had a, similar to the Red Wedding episode, kind of grief about it. Which means something I'm doing — or the show is doing — is right." Yeah, you could say that Kit...

Game of Thrones season 6 airs on HBO each Sunday in the US, and a day later on Sky Atlantic in the UK.
