'GoT' actor reveals security measures taken to avoid season 8 spoilers
The fantasy drama series came to an end after eight seasons at the weekend and Isaac Hempstead Wright - who plays newly-crowned king Bran the Broken - has revealed the lengths producers went to in order to keep plot details under wraps during filming.
"When we shot those final scenes of the Starks on the bay in King's Landing, we were told not to leave our hotel room in Croatia for fear of giving something away. And that's not all, as network HBO went to the expense of hiring out every room that had any sort of view of the sets, and all the cast members were accompanied by security guards.
"We were also accompanied by a top security guard who arranged every move we made as though we were Secret Service agents on some mission abroad. Sometimes you had to remind yourself that this is only a TV show."
