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.

More libidinous Game of Thrones fans have been lamenting the lack of trademark sex scenes in season 7, while hoping for a tryst between Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen (incest be damned) at some point.

It seems as though the scene will finally take place in the season finale, 'The Dragon and the Wolf'.

Spot the difference in the TVMA ratings HBO listed for recent episodes:

Episode 4: Adult Content, Adult Language, Graphic Violence

Episode 5: Adult Content, Adult Language, Graphic Violence

Episode 6: Adult Content, Adult Language, Graphic Violence

Episode 7: Adult Content, Adult Language, Graphic Violence, Nudity

Unless Tormund and Brienne hold a very speedy and successful first date in the episode, the nudity will almost certainly be on the part of Jon and Daenerys.

We last saw the pair holding hands as Jon convalesced on a boat bound for King's Landing, with many expecting this setup to be picked back up as Jon's condition improves and Jon and Dany grow closer - a predicted moment fans have efficiently christened 'Boatsex'.

The title of the episode would seem to back this up, reiterating that, at the time of intercourse, the pair believe themselves to be Targaryen and Stark, yet to find out they are Targaryen and "Starkgaryen" (Dany is actually Jon's aunt).

Photos from the episode, meanwhile, suggest that the much-discussed 'Cleganebowl' could also be on the cards.

Game of Thrones season 7 concludes on HBO, Sky Atlantic and through NOWTV on Sunday night.
