It's the final episode of Game of Thrones season 6 this weekend, seeing one kingdom split away from the others- oh wait, no, that's real life.

Inevitably, people are desperate to see it ahead of its broadcast, which begs the question - has/will it be the fourth episode of the season to leak online?

Right now, there are no authentic versions of the episode on torrent/streaming sites, but we'll update this story if that changes.

Update 3 hours before broadcast: still no leak, but have a spoilery GIF Sky Atlantic posted for your troubles

There are however, a ton of supposed spoilers for the episode floating around, along with a clip apparently showing the episode's climax (it was a very carefully chosen scene from Warcraft!).

Last week, HBO managed to avoid episode 8 - 'The Battle of the Bastards' - from leaking, which was an achievement given the hype for it (the episode went on to be GoT's most watched to date).

Who is Azor Ahai?

While the other leaks this season couldn't be helped, episode 5 - 'The Door' - was actually HBO's fault, its Nordic arm accidentally putting it online more than 24 hours early.

If you're still inclined to try and torrent the episode at any point, hallmarks of fake versions are around 300MB size (suspiciously small) and .wmv and .exe file types, sometimes prompting you to download a codec to 'view' them (don't). They're usually uploaded to disseminate viruses and links to spam sites.

You can watch the episode in all its HD glory Sunday night on HBO at 9pm ET in the US and on Sky Atlantic at 2am BST (Monday) in the UK. You can also watch online and on TV through NOWTV and HBO GO (which has a free trial on) in some territories.
