With two big battles so far this season, it was always going to be an expensive season to make. The third episode saw the long awaited Battle of Winterfell, which saw the Night King and his White Walker army come face-to-face with many of our favourite characters. It included over an hour of non-stop action and many fans have been wondering just how much it all cost to put together. What is the budget for Game of Thrones season eight? It is believed that the team behind the fantasy series were given around $15 million to spend on each of the six episodes in the eighth season. That means a total of around $90 million was spent, making it the most expensive TV show in history. It is the biggest amount that HBO has spent per episode in any of the eight seasons of Game of Thrones, although the shorter length of the final series means that it was technically beaten by season six, which reportedly cost $100 million in total across ten episodes.

The budget has been needed so far in season eight, especially with two huge battles taking place in episodes three and five, with dragons, direwolves and the White Walker army all requiring complex CGI and special effects. Even then it wasn’t enough to allow Jon Snow to give his pet Direwolf Ghost a hug, before leaving him to ride south during episode four. The first season of Game of Thrones had a much smaller budget in comparison, with around $6 million per episode, but this was before many of the big battle scenes took place. One battle was even cut out, with Tyrion Lannister being knocked out just as it was beginning, to avoid having to find more money so that they could film the battle sequence that happened after Robert Barratheon’s death.

What happened in Game of Thrones season 8 episode 5? Game of Thrones ‘ final penultimate episode saw Daenerys unleash a fiery spree of terror on King’s Landing despite the fact that Cersei rang the bells of surrender after Drogon destroyed the Iron Fleet and all of the scorpions lining the city’s outer walls. Jon and Tyrion then watched on in horror as Daenerys transitioned fully into the Mad Queen some had long feared she would become. After Tyrion freed Jaime in hopes that he could convince Cersei to leave Westeros with him, Jaime attempted to sneak into the Red Keep to reunite with his sister. However, he was caught by Euron Greyjoy and forced into a fight to the death. Jaime ultimately came out on top, but was mortally wounded in the process. Despite his injuries, he still made it to Cersei’s side and the twin Lannisters died together as the castle crumbled around them. Meanwhile, after convincing Arya to abandon her quest for vengeance on Cersei, the Hound finally came face to face with the Mountain and it was time for “Cleganebowl.” The Hound managed to stab the Mountain through the stomach with a sword and through the eye with a dagger despite taking a horrific beating. But after realizing that his zombified brother couldn’t be killed by normal means, the Hound tackled the Mountain through the crumbling Red Keep wall and the two both fell to their deaths. Arya was then left to try to make her way out the city alone as Daenerys continued her carnage. In the final moments of the episode, a traumatized Arya found herself alone in the ruins of King’s Landing. But after discovering the burned bodies of a mother and daughter who had saved her from being trampled to death, she looked up to see a lone white horse seemingly waiting for her. She then mounted the horse and rode off through the destruction. What happened in Game of Thrones season 8 episode 4? After mourning the fallen of the Battle of Winterfell, those left alive spent some time celebrating their victory against the Night King in episode 4, “The Last of the Starks.” But Daenerys’ spirits were dampened when she saw firsthand how much people adore Jon, prompting her to beg him to never reveal his true identity. Jon, however, felt compelled to tell Sansa and Arya, and the truth then spread to Tyrion and Varys. Things only went from bad to worse for Daenerys when Rhaegal was killed and Missandei was captured during a surprise attack by Euron and the Iron Fleet at Dragonstone. News of this assault sent Jaime — who had spent the episode growing closer to Brienne — into a downward spiral, and the Kingslayer fled Winterfell in the night to return to Cersei despite Brienne’s tearful pleas for him to stay. Daenerys and her entourage then made their way to King’s Landing to try to parlay with Cersei and save Missandei, but Tyrion’s attempt to convince Cersei to surrender to save her unborn child fell on death ears. As Tyrion, Grey Worm and Daenerys watched on in horror, the Mountain beheaded Missandei on Cersei’s orders. What happened in Game of Thrones season 8 episode 3? “The Long Night” episode of Game of Thrones ‘ eighth season didn’t waste any time jumping right into the action of the Battle of Winterfell. After Melisandre showed up to set the Dothrakis’ swords ablaze with an incantation she presumably learned during her time in Volantis, the showdown with the Night King and his army of dead quickly got underway. Unfortunately, even with Daenerys and Jon flying into battle on the backs of Drogon and Rhaegal, it seemed like the living didn’t stand a chance against the dead from the get-go — especially once the Night King raised all of the soldiers who had been killed to revitalize his forces. But Melisandre still had one more trick up her sleeve. After Beric Dondarrion sacrificed himself to save Arya, Melisandre gave her the push she needed to realize she was the one who was fated to kill the Night King. Arya then sprinted to the godswood, where the Night King was preparing to kill Bran after cutting down Theon, and stabbed the leader of the White Walkers with her Valyrian steel dagger. Once the Night King was vanquished, all of the dead — including zombie Viserion — fell too, ending the Great War. What happened in Game of Thrones season 8 episode 2? “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” was another dialogue-heavy, table-setting episode, as everyone at Winterfell hunkered down and prepared for the White Walkers’ impending siege of the city. Jaime Lannister was met with skepticism when he arrived at Winterfell and announced he had defected from his sister Cersei. But after Brienne of Tarth vouched for his integrity, he was set free; Jaime returned the favor by knighting her, creating one of show’s most touching and uplifting moments. Daenerys sparred with two Stark siblings: Sansa (over the issue of Northern independence) and Jon (after he revealed his true identity, which gave him a claim to the Iron Throne). Theon returned and pledged to defend Bran Stark, who is expecting a visit from the Night King during the Battle of Winterfell. Arya received a weapon from Gendry; the pair consummated their long-held crushes for each other. Podrick sang a hymn, “Jenny’s song.” As many characters exchanged their farewells before the war, from Grey Worm to Missandei to the Hound to Jorah to Brienne to Sam, it was hard not to think that many of them might be saying goodbye for good. What happened in the Game of Thrones season 8 premiere? The Game of Thrones season 8 premiere opened with Jon, Daenerys and their combined entourage arriving at Winterfell to begin preparing for the war against the dead, a development that led to several long-awaited reunions between fan favorite characters. After Sansa and Tyrion got nostalgic about Joffrey’s murder, Jon and Arya shared an emotional moment in the godswood, and Gendry agreed to make Arya a fancy new dragonglass weapon. As was speculated by fans, Jon finally rode Rhaegal, the dragon named after his father, and Bran spent the majority of the episode staring at people from across the Winterfell courtyard while “waiting for an old friend” — a.k.a. Jaime.
