Game of Thrones has a habit of bringing back characters from earlier seasons, but one fella we have always wondered about was Arya's BFF Gendry.

Last we saw of him, the Red Lady was using leeches to get his King's blood (Gendry is the illegitimate son of Robert Baratheon), and had more dire plans for the lad until the Onion Knight (Liam Cunningham) stepped in and helped him escape on a boat.

And then nothing. We haven't seen or heard from him since season 3.

It's become a running joke with fans that Gendry is still just out there somewhere in the Seven Seas rowing away, with the actor who plays him, Joe Dempsie, also getting in on it;

It looks like Gendry will finally have made it out of that boat in season seven though, with Dempsie pictured in Belfast airport recently where the show is being filmed.

Now yes, he could just be visiting Belfast, but there's no other upcoming projects he could be working on there, so we're going to go ahead and assume he's there for Game of Thrones.

Perhaps we'll even get an Arya and Gendry reunion in season seven? We always thought those crazy kids might get together when she was a bit older. Either that or she'll kill him, you wouldn't know with that one.
