Game of Thrones season 6 episode 7 trailer preview: Jon Snow appears to find an army in 'The Broken Man'

We've hit the halfway mark

Game of Thrones season 6 episode 6, 'Blood of my Blood' felt a bit like filler - bar the return of another Stark - so attention is already swiftly turning to the trailer for next week's instalment.

We learn two main things in it:

Jon appears to find some men with which to take back Winterfell

"He died for us. If we are not willing to do the same for him we are cowards," wildling leader Tormund Giantsbane declares, though getting the wildlings to take on Ramsay is surely a hard sell when they know what horrors lurk beyond the Wall.

As Ser Davos later puts it, "The real war is between the living and the dead, and make no mistake, the dead are coming."

Bronn is back

He is a popular character, being both badass with a sword and providing a little humour, so it's nice to see him finally back in the show.

The mercenary will be at Jaime Lannister's side as he heads to The Riverlands to confront Blackfish on King Tommen's orders.

A quick recap: In exchange for orchestrating the Red Wedding, Walder Frey was given rule of The Riverlands but his sons lost it to the tough Tully. In episode 6 however, it didn't seem as though Jaime was very keen to do what his son told him, given Tommen is being used as a puppet by the High Sparrow. Expect Jaime and the Blackfish to establish some sort of pact or mutual distance.

Elsewhere in the trailer, Sansa reiterates her mission to bring back the good name of Stark to Westeros, Olenna scolds Cersei, and Yara and Theon hatch a plan to take back the Iron Islands from their uncle Euron.
