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.

When spoiler-hungry Game of Thrones fans are this industrious, HBO might as well give up trying to keep filming under wraps.

Footage was posted on Facebook today by a “crazed fan” from the UK who hiked three miles through the Spanish hills to film the pivotal Tower of Joy scene from above.

“Have to crawl…you’ll see why in a sec!” he says at the start of the video.

He then claims a massive spoiler.

“That one in the brown closest to us, that’s Sean Bean. I don’t know who the knight is.”

A young Ned Stark has been cast for the flashback, but Bean has insisted he won’t be filming for it, though we know better than to trust GoT cast and crew by now.

“Go on Beany, get him!” the fan narrates spiritedly. “Go on Beany! Go on Beany! Slayed him!”

Bran Stark actor Isaace Hempstead-Wright was previously spotted at the castle ruins doubling for the Tower of Joy, suggesting the scene - which could be a major plot hinge for season 6 - will be told through one of his vision rather than through flashback as it is in A Song of Ice and Fire.

Major spoilers came out of GoT’s Northern Ireland base yesterday, where an enormous battle is being filmed.
