For those unfamiliar with the books, Lady Stoneheart is Catelyn Stark (Michelle Fairley), who is resurrected by Beric Dondarrion (Richard Dormer) following her death at the Red Wedding and takes command of the Brotherhood Without Banners as she sets out for vengeance against anyone who she feels has betrayed the Starks.
There’s been a huge demand from fans for the TV show to include Lady Stoneheart, although showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss have so far remained tight lipped about whether they plan to feature the fan favourite character.
