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.

Between making light of Game of Thrones and screaming about space pants during his turn as Saturday Night Live host, Peter Dinklage also managed to spend 12 days stark naked in a forest with Ghostbusters’ Leslie Jones.

In a sketch titled Naked And Afraid: Celebrity Edition, Dinklage and Jones were tasked with surviving for just under two weeks. The catch? They were only allowed to take one survival item with them each.

Tyrion... I mean, Dinklage decided to bring with him a fire-starter kit while Jones brought with her 'Frank's Red Hot Sauce' because she has it on everything she eats.

Of course, this is a real chalk and cheese segment, the two showing acting like complete opposites to much comedic effect, the result being possibly the best sketch of the evening. Elsewhere, Dinklage interupted a meeting between members of the Mafia.

Dinklage can next be seen in Game of Thrones season six, which starts this April.

Meanwhile, Jones will feature in the rebooted Ghostbusters later this year.
