Game of Thrones fans were relieved to see Jon Snow (played by Kit Harrington) spared by Bran (Isaac Hempstead Wright) after killing the mad Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) after she burned King’s Landing killing numerous civilians.
With Jon Snow returning to the Night’s Watch, the future looked far less bleak than the one Daenerys’ followers had hoped for.
However, despite Emmy Award nominated actor being pleased with his ending, he had few good things to say about the “horrible” dragon scenes.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, the actor explained how the challenge of riding the mechanical buck was even worse than filming in the thick Northen Irish mud for the penultimate battle episode of season six.
Kit began: “Emilia had been moaning about it for seasons, and I was like, ‘Yeah, yeah, yeah. Whatever. You have not been through the mud in Northern Ireland. A buck in a nice warm room? Boo hoo.’
However, the actor quickly admitted he misjudged the scene, revealing the mechanical dragon rides was not what he signed up for.
He continued: ”But she was absolutely right. It was horrific. It’s not acting at all. It is not acting, it never will be acting, and it is not what I’d signed up for.
“But it looked great, right? It just felt horrible! It is very uncomfortable as a man.”
He added: “Not recommended, no. I don’t think I can have children now.”
The actor spoke out after a recent release of the Emmy-nominated finale script revealed Daenerys had turned even darker than fans thought.

The Script’s description of the Mother of Dragon brings a new whole new perspective to the story as the text proved a chilling read for fans.
The key scene in the final episode of the last season that saw Drogon’s wings behind Daenerys describes her in an “unsettling image”.
The script reads: “Drogon lands out of sight beyond the top of the stairs.
“Jon climbs the stairway. When he nears the top he sees Dany, already dismounted, walking towards him.
“For a moment, Drogon’s unfolding wings spread behind her back, an unsettling image. Her Satanic Majesty’s Request.”
The writer describes Daenerys as “her satanic majesty,” proving just how evil the leader had become.
Moreover, her villainy is further exposed in a later part of her script as she addresses her Dothraki warriors.
The script continues: “Amidst the ashes of her conquest and the corpses of her enemies, Dany accepts the worship of her followers.
“The devastated city stretches out below her, but she shows no signs of ambivalence or doubt. She has burned the village to save it.”
This appears to allude to the Queen’s insanity as she thinks she is saving the Kingdom when she is clearly destroying it and the people within.
Game of Thrones aired on HBO and UK fans can catch up on the final season via Sky Atlantic and NOW TV.
