Game Of Thrones stars John Bradley and Hannah Murray appeared at the New York premiere for the show’s final season, and have teased the show’s end.

John and Hannah, who play Samwell Tarly and his partner Gilly respectively, appeared at Radio City Music Hall, New York, for the first screening of the episode, joined by the likes of Emilia Clarke, Kit Harington and Sophie Turner.

Before their appearance at the event, John and Hannah also appeared at Walker Stalker con in London, where they offered details about their reaction to the finale at a panel.

Speaking about the finale (via Hollywood News), John said: ‘People have often asked what my reaction was when reading the final script, were you excited or disappointed. My main reaction was just one of really intense relief.

‘Just relief that it wasn’t an ending that we were going to be ashamed of. A few shows have been great all the way through, but then the ending has let everyone down. We don’t want to be that. So we were just really relieved that we can go out there and tell people we’re proud of it and mean it.

‘This show has never really bothered itself with keeping people happy. Ned Stark dying, the Red Wedding, they don’t make people happy, but they make people satisfied dramatically. So when people say, are we going to be happy with the ending? I don’t know, because I don’t know what you want.

‘I know that lots of people have lots of different ways they want it to end. What you will get is a satisfying ending. If it’s not the ending you want, maybe think even though it’s not the ending I would have chosen, it’s the right one.

‘I mean no one wanted Robb and Catlyn, and all those people to die, in season three. Nobody wanted that, but it’s created one of the most iconic moments in TV ever.’

Speaking about what Gilly would do she if she took the Iron Throne, Hannah said: ‘I like to think that Gilly would take it. I think she’d hold it over Sam for the rest of his life.

‘I think she’d want to do a lot for education. She really believes in that having learned to read later in life, a very important thing. There would be a lot of libraries around. And good child care for everyone!’

The final season will consist of six episodes, so there’s not much time left for all the branching storylines to come together.

If you’re upset over the show’s end, a prequel spin-off set thousands of years before Game Of Thrones is already in the works, starring Naomi Watts, John Simm, and more.

Game Of Thrones season eight kicks off Sunday 14 April on HBO and Sky Atlantic, while seasons one to seven are available on NOW TV.
