Television network HBO has responded to widespread criticism that the latest episode of House of the Dragon was too dark - leaving some viewers describing it as completely 'unwatchable'.
The seventh instalment of the current series - which is a prequel to hit programme Game of Thrones - aired Sunday evening (October 2) in the US, with Sky Atlantic broadcasting the edition the following morning in the UK.
And The Mirror reports that although it brought drama in the form of its plot, the airing prompted frustration among hardcore viewers - who felt that 'poor lighting' made it difficult to consume.
