From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

The idea of a show being ‘like Game of Thrones’ implies a few things; likely a period drama featuring nudity, brutality and - above anything else - death.

Throughout its run, HBO’s flagship show has shown little remorse in killing off main characters at various points throughout its run; starting in season one with the shock death of Ned Stark and culminating in the recent deaths of Hodor, Ramsay Bolton and The Waif.

Notably, the finale for season six featured numerous deaths of major characters the High Sparrow, Margaery Tyrell and Tommen Baratheon, all within the first 20 minutes, thanks to Wildfire/suicide.

So, who else died in season six? Let’s have a quick look back and see how these various characters met their makers (whichever God that may be).

There you have it, way over 30 dead major characters, and that’s not including Faith Militant Brother #4 or Battle of the Bastards extra #487. Meanwhile, anticipation for season seven is already growing, with the showrunners recently discussing Cersei’s role as the future Queen.
