Game of Thrones Fact Files: Jon Snow
Tony Black counts down to Game of Thrones’ season 7 premiere… The King in the North! What a journey a man who knows so little has undertaken over the last six seasons of Game of Thrones. The bastard son (or so we thought) of Ned Stark, warden of the North and all round good egg, […]
