This is certainly one Game of Thrones season six actor who may not ever be asked back again. The legendary Ian McShane joins the cast this season and has been dropping some pretty big spoilers of late, including that his character was going to "bring back a much-loved character everybody thinks is dead." (Steady on, we're pretty sure he doesn't mean Jon Snow.)

However, the actor has been defending himself in an interview with The Telegraph; "You say the slightest thing and the internet goes ape. I was accused of giving the plot away, but I just think get a f***ing life. It’s only tits and dragons."

ONLY tits and dragons? How very dare you Mr Ian McShane - if that's the case, sure Lovejoy was only antiques and mullets.

Hilariously though, during this interview with The Telegraph, McShane ended up accidentally giving another plot point away;

"They asked me if I wanted to do Game of Thrones and I said, 'Sure, I’ll be able to see my old pals Charlie Dance and Stephen Dillane’ and they said, 'No, we’ve killed them off.’ I wasn’t sure whether I could commit, but then they said it would only be for one episode, so I said, 'So that means I must die at the end of it. Great, I’m in.'"

Dammit McShane!
