Camera-wielding locals have once again snapped some spoilerific shots featuring Harrington as Jon Snow, this time meeting another fan favourite character: Peter Dinklage’s Tyrion Lannister.
The pair were caught on camera shaking hands on Itzurun beach, also in Basque Country, surrounded by both Northern soldiers and Dothraki.
According to Watchers on the Wall
Also pictured on the beach is Liam Cunningham’s Davos Seaworth, Nathalie Emmanuel’s Missandei, and Daenerys herself.
Meanwhile, Alfie Allen - who plays Theon Greyjoy in the show - was spotted emerging from a hotel in Spain: Gemma Whelan, who plays Yara Greyjoy, has not been spotted yet.
In more definite Game of Thrones news, two more British actors have joined the show’s already huge cast.
Game of Thrones season 7 will consist of seven episodes and arrive on HBO in the US and Sky Atlantic in the UK in summer 2017.
