If you don't appreciate spoilers, stop what you're doing right now and don't continue reading. If you realise there is no way you're going to escape news from Winterfell, then stop what you're doing and continue reading.

It's been a long two years since fans have had any updates from the GOT squad and best you believe that the hype around the return has created a dragon-sized frenzy.

As the houses unite and White Walkers forge on in the final season, many theories about the show have been presented.

So, without giving too much away (it's a little tricky we tell ya) here's some of the most talked-about moments from fans.

Family reunited

Jon Snow finally got to reunite with Arya, resulting in a tender moment that will warm the coldest of White Walker hearts.

The reunion between Bran and Jamie was also a major topic of conversation. Bran waiting to meet the person who pushed him out of a window was a moment that resulted in many a meme.

Power couple?

Jon and Daenerys arriving together on a dragon set the scene for many. Although their union was revealed in the last season, GOT fans couldn't help but point out some truths.

New credit = clues

The season premiere called Winterfell already had fans in a tizz after the opening credits sequence was changed. The action starts outside Westeros, giving clues to the path taken by the undead army of White Walkers.

Here's a video of the changes.
