Will Jon Snow be back for season six? The debate rages!

Game of Thrones star Kit Harington has been spotted in Belfast on the set of the show, prompting further speculation that his beloved character Jon Snow will be back.

The actor was photographed looking swarthy in full costume, with a sword on his hip and his famous locks tied back in a ponytail while surrounded by crew on a hilltop in Northern Ireland.

Snow was dramatically killed off in the season five finale but rumours have been flying around that the character was not gone for good.

Harington has been spotted in Belfast in the past few weeks, and these latest photos have added fuel to the fire that he will make an appearance in season six of the HBO fantasy series.

The 28-year-old star previously suggested in a recent interview that he would be back, saying: "The important thing is that I now know exactly how long I am still under contract. 

"Let's just say that Game of Thrones will remain a part of my life for a while, I'll probably be in my thirties when it's over."

Season six of Game of Thrones returns to HBO and Sky Atlantic in 2016.
