HBO has released a set of photos from Game of Thrones S06E07 ‘The Broken Man’, allowing us to glean a little more as to what all the characters will be up to next episode.

The most spoilerific image is of Jon Snow, Sansa Stark and Ser Davos, who visit House Glover and talk to its heir Robett Glover.

Earlier in the season we learned that the house had taken back their seat of Deepwood Motte from the Ironborn, suggesting they possess a strong army for Jon to utilise in the fight against the Boltons.

While drawing up plans to retake the North, Jon noted that the Glovers, along with the Hornwoods, Cerwyns, Mormonts and Mazins, had all yet to ally with the Boltons, so it makes sense that this episode will see him ride to each of them and try and persuade them to pledge fealty.

In the trailer for the episode, we saw him attempting to get the wildlings to fight with him.

Other photos in the batch see the Blackfish holding Riverrun, Jaime and Bronn visiting him, Margaery getting to visit her mother Olenna and Arya pondering life outside of Braavos.

Game of Thrones: Who's planning what?

‘The Broken Man’ airs Sunday night on HBO and Sky Atlantic and is expected to see the return of a fan favourite.

The official synopsis is: ‘The High Sparrow eyes another target. Jaime confronts a hero. Arya makes a plan. The North is reminded.’
