A raven has arrived at MTV HQ carrying a whole bundle of new shots from Game Of Thrones season seven, and it looks as though winter has finally arrived. Even Daenarys has wrapped up for a change as she prepares to make a play from the Iron Throne…

The new pics don’t reveal too many surprises about the show’s next instalments, although there are a few interesting bits to pick out. There’s the return of the Hound, saddled up and riding with the Brotherhood Without Banners, while Littlefinger is clearly still in the ear of Sansa Stark.

It also looks like Sam has taken to life at the Citadel like a duck to water, while everyone will be pleased to see that pint-sized warrior Lyanna Mormont will be making her presence felt once more. It’s all about Team Targaryen, though. Those new uniforms look pretty badass…

Co-starring Kit Harrington, Emilia Clarke and Lena Headey, the new series of Game Of Thrones will air on 16 July 2017. The waiting is almost over…
