Last updated 7th Jan 2018
Daenerys Targaryen, Jon Snow and Arya Stark are among Game Of Thrones characters that will feature on a new series of stamps, Royal Mail has announced.
They are among 10 main protagonists from the hit HBO fantasy programme, based on the books by George RR Martin, who feature in the set that goes on sale later this month.
The set of 15 first class stamps is being released to highlight British contributions to the series. The seven series so far have been heavily filmed in Northern Ireland with a predominantly British and Irish cast.
See the gallery of Game of Thrones stamps below:
As well as the characters played by Emilia Clarke, Kit Harington and Maisie Williams, the roll-call of characters from Westeros also includes Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey), Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner), Tywin Lannister (Charles Dance), Eddard Stark (Sean Bean), Olenna Tyrell (Dame Diana Rigg), Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage), and Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau).
There is also a five-stamp sheet featuring images of the Night King and his undead White Walkers, giants, direwolves and dragons, and the Iron Throne.
Fans can pre-order stamps now from the Royal Mail website and buy them from 23rd January at Post Office branches across the UK, or by calling Royal Mail's customer service line.
The collection's release comes ahead of the eighth and final series, which is currently in production. According to Sky News multiple endings of the final series will be filmed to avoid leaks. HBO's Casey Bloys explained, "You have to do that on a long show. They're going to shoot multiple versions so that there's no real definitive answer until the end."
