So The Walking Dead season 7 has begun. Literally exploding on to the screen with one of the most traumatic and violent pieces of TV I think I've ever seen. 

OBVIOUSLY STOP READING IF YOU'VE NOT SEEN IT YET. I'm going to put this nice GIF here so you can't accidentally see something you don't want to. 

If you are up for it though, scroll past and see how the world reacted.
