It has now become somewhat of a game trying to predict who will be killed off next, so much so that the bookies have got in on it, offering odds on who will die in the next episode. **Spoilers for episode four ahead**
According to Uproxx, things are not looking good for Ser Jorah Mormont, who comes lowest on the list for characters next to be axed off - this should come as no surprise as he has been nursing a Greyscale wound for some time.
Notably, in comparison to the odds offered following season six, Sansa Stark’s luck has been improved from 11-1 to 25-1, no doubt indebted to her reunion with Jon Snow. The opposite effect has happened for Melisandre, who has dropped from 30-1 to 14-1.
To no-one's surprise, Ramsey Bolton is also high up on the list - however, his plot armour is currently thick, with the show destined to see Jon Snow take on the Bolton boy in the penultimate episode.
Jorah Mormont — 13/4
Ramsay Bolton — 10/1
Theon Greyjoy — 10/1
Daario Naharis — 10/1
High Sparrow — 10/1
Lady Melisandre — 14/1
Tommen Baratheon — 15/1
Loras Tyrell — 15/1
Brienne of Tarth — 18/1
Euron Greyjoy — 20/1
Yara Greyjoy — 20/1
Podrick Payne — 20/1
Grey Worm — 20/1
Sansa Stark — 25/1
Margaery Tyrell — 25/1
Ellaria Sand — 30/1
Tormund — 30/1
Davos — 33/1
Missandei — 33/1
Jaime Lannister — 35/1
Ghost — 40/1
Olenna Tyrell — 45/1
Petyr Baelish — 50/1
Jon Snow — 50/1
Samwell Tarly — 50/1
Lord Varys — 50/1
Bronn — 66/1
Drogon — 66/1
Cersei Lannister — 75/1
Tyrion Lannister — 75/1
Jaquen H’ghar — 100/1
Arya Stark — 100/1
Daenerys Targaryen — 100/1
If anyone’s being lopped off next, it is likely to be a side-character, someone like Missandei or Grey Worm. Perhaps Bronn will be back just to be killed off again? That would be a good 66-1 odds as well.
Meanwhile, Game of Thrones theorists have been working overtime since the sixth season aired, predicting a huge civil war will erupt in King’s Landing thanks to Ser Loras’s latest confession.
