Peter Dinklage has promised that the final season of Game of Thrones will be ‘the greatest season of television you’ve ever seen’.

The star picked up an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for another year in a row and spoke backstage.

When asked what fans can expect about the upcoming episodes, he simply said: ‘It’s going to be the greatest season of television you’ve ever seen. It’s true!’

Peter, who plays Tyrion Lannister on the long-running show, is now tied with Breaking Bad’s Aaron Paul for the most number of Emmy wins.

In his acceptance speech, Peter thanked his Game of Thrones castmates as ‘the most talented amazing people I know besides my wife, Erica.’

He then admitted that he had previously forgotten to thank her during a speech, and praised her for ‘putting up with him’.

The star also made a special mention of Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, calling him his ‘brother from another mother’.

Speaking to the actor, who plays Jamie Lannister on the show, he said: ‘I love you and I share this with you, because you’re an amazing, handsome, brother. ‘

Game of Thrones’ final season starts next April on HBO, and Sky Atlantic in the UK.
