Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

It’s nearly two weeks since Kit Harington was spotted in costume on the Game of Thrones season 6 set in Northern Ireland, and he’s still there.

With filming continuing in Belfast, Harington apparently took some time out for a well-earned beer in a local bar on Wednesday night:

The fact that’s he still at the GoT filming base and has been for months now really puts to bed the idea that he was only filming some sort of flashback or dream sequence, and it’s pretty safe to assume he’s definitely coming back full-time (along with another presumed dead character).

Exactly how this will happen is the subject of fierce debate. First thing’s first, how will the Night’s Watch handle Jon’s death? Will Ser Alliser label him a traitor and string up Snow’s body as a warning? Or will the mutinous Night’s Watch members pin his death on the Wildings?

Smuggler Ser Davos is in town, so it's possible will help save Jon’s body for some sort of Melisandre-based resurrection.

Yesterday, we got our first look at Lena Headey filming, with Cersei apparently on the mend following her walk of atonement.

Game of Thrones season 6's release date is expected to fall in April 2016.
