It is a "must-watch" for viewers who have been fans of the series for close to a decade and will explore the creation of the final season, revealing the tears and triumphs behind-the-scenes in Northern Ireland and the studios, fields and car parks where the last six episodes were filmed.

Game of Thrones: The Last Watch is a personal report, done by Jeanie Finlay, from the trenches of production, following the crew and the cast as they contend with extreme weather, punishing deadlines and an ever-excited fandom hungry for spoilers.
