Game Of Thrones Quiz: How Well Do You Remember Season 1?
How good's your memory of our first venture into the Seven Kingdoms?
A little over ten years ago, HBO announced the launch of a new epic fantasy set to rival Lord of the Rings. A bold claim in itself, the reality seemed impossible - no-one had come close to the success of Peter Jackson's acclaimed trilogy, which on its own merit seemed like a once-in-a-generation achievement due to the difficulty of adapting fantasy novels to the screen.
This new show was set to bring George R.R. Martin's acclaimed 'A Song of Ice and Fire' series to viewers across the world with staggering results. Looking back at Game of Thrones' success now, it's incredible to think just what a big gamble it was in its infancy. But with a strong ensemble cast, and a certain Sean Bean put front and centre of the show's marketing, Game of Thrones thrived and hooked audiences for the next decade.
In some ways, the debut season of Thrones has more of a prequel feel to it, considering what comes after. With lower budgets and a large focus on characters who don't even make it to the following season, it sets the stage for the epic adventure to come.
So, how well do you remember this first exciting venture into Westeros?
