Game of Thrones fans invited to pull up a pew on Iron Throne ahead of prequel launch

Fans of Game of Thrones are losing their heads after the Iron Throne was unveiled outside the Tower of London. The throne was erected in front of London’s own legendary landmark ahead of the launch of prequel series, House Of The Dragon.

People can take a seat and get pictures taken there on Monday and Tuesday. It will then move to Leicester Square for the August 15 premiere of the new show before heading off on a tour of the country.

Based on George RR Martin’s Fire And Blood and set two centuries before Game Of Thrones, House Of The Dragon chronicles events leading up to the Targaryen civil war, known as the Dance of the Dragons. The drama features The Crown star Matt Smith as Prince Daemon Targaryen, younger brother of King Viserys and heir to the throne.Olivia Cooke plays Alicent Hightower, the daughter of Otto Hightower, hand of the king.
