Episode five of the ongoing Game of Thrones 8 was eventful. While Cersei Lannister got buried in the rubble along with her twin brother and lover Jaime Lannister, Mother of Dragons Daenerys Targaryen and Drogon destroyed King's Landing. The Mountain and The Hound also fell to death after Cleganebowl. Euron Greyjoy is dead too. And following the big episode titled The Bells, the actors playing these characters took to their social media accounts and shared some behind-the-scenes photos.

Pilou has been on a photo sharing spree. He had on Monday shared some more images with a green Chroma background.
