Italian show Medici: Masters of Florence stars Robb Stark actor Richard Madden as Cosimo de Medici, Florencde's ruler during the Italian Renaissance. One of his co-stars is David Bradley who Thrones fans will remember as the despicable Walder Frey, the man responsible for the Stark massacre.
In the series, Bradley plays Alessandro Bardi, Cosimo's father-in-law - what he strangely almost was in Thrones.
One scene sees Bradley give Madden a gentle kiss on the head and Thrones viewers naturally have mixed emotions.
Medici: Masters of Florence is on Netflix now while Game of Thrones returns to HBO for its seventh run summer 2017.
