Game Of Thrones is a fairly bloodthirsty show at the best of times, and the final season is likely to take that to extremes. Although this season has the fewest episodes, it will undoubtedly have some of the most dramatic moments the show has ever seen; unfortunately for the major characters, that means some of them will meet an untimely end.

Ever since Ned Stark was executed all the way back in the ninth episode, Game Of Thrones has had no qualms with slaying the main characters. In case we’d all forgotten that, the Red Wedding was a brutal reminder that this was not a show that pulled its punches.

Season 8 is sure to be full of character defining moments, epic battles and shocking twists; many popular characters will fall. Though no one is safe, some are in much more danger than others. George R.R. Martin’s wife once joked that she’d divorce him if he killed Arya, so perhaps Maisie Williams' character is safer than most.

Some characters, either through their own villainy, typical behaviour or just because their arcs seem to have ended, are in much more danger than the others.
