Game Of Thrones: Season 7 - 8 Clues From "Stormborn" Trailer

1. Finally, Littlefinger Gets His Come-Uppance?

Jon Snow Strangles Littlefinger

As was shown in one of the earlier pre-release trailers, this shot is taken from Jon Snow's confrontation with Littlefinger in the crypt beneath Winterfell.

Not only does it suggest that Jon comes to realise that Littlefinger is a toxic influence (he wouldn't strike out at him if he wasn't heavily compelled, because Littlefinger's military support is too important), but also that the reason might be something to do with the Stark family history.

Could this be Littlefinger goading Jon about his true parentage? Or perhaps he's just down there to gloat over Ned's death a little more, which would probably be enough to piss Jon off. Either way, this is likely to sour their relationship badly, and it could see the end of Littlefinger's self-serving alliance with the Starks.

Where will he look for support next? South?
