David Nutter, the director of the shocking final episode of this season's Game of Thrones, has said there was a lot of sadness on set during filming.

Warning: spoiler alert!

The episode, which aired on Sunday June 14 in the US, saw certain characters meet their demise. 

Nutter told The Hollywood Reporter: "It wasn't unlike the Red Wedding [Game of Thrones massacre] where everyone gets attached to people when you work with them for such a long time. You really grow quite fond of each other. You're family. It was a lot of sadness on the set." 

The season finale airs on Sky Atlantic tonight, Monday June 15.
