A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
9pm, Sky Atlantic
If you loved the unlikely pairing of the Hound and Arya in Game of Thrones, this lighter, funnier new prequel is way more enjoyable than the dismal drama of House of the Dragon. Set 100 years before the events of GoT, the story is based on a George RR Martin novella, following the adventures of Ser Duncan the Tall (Peter Claffey), a sweet, courageous hedge knight (“like a knight … but sadder”) and his inquisitive young squire, Egg (Dexter Sol Ansell). But it’s not all fun and games – after all, what is Westeros without the cunning characters and grisly bits? As Duncan’s journey begins, expect puppet dragons, projectile poo and a promise to win a jousting tourney. Hollie Richardson
