And as usual the pulse-pounding story has now been given an in-depth behind-the-scenes video from HBO, demonstrating exactly how they pulled off one of season 7’s biggest (and iciest) sequences yet.

From a flaming metal bear head and collapsible ice platforms to massive polystyrene dragons, the team pulled off the incredible scenes with a bewildering array of techniques – and in the finished sequences, the results speak for themselves.

Still haven’t forgiven them for killing the dragon, though.
