Game of Throne‘s “Eastwatch” Breaks Show’s Viewership Record
This Sunday’s episode of Game of Thrones was nothing less than amazing. We got some big returns, long-awaited reunions, epic meet-ups and a couple of huge revelations.
Maybe that, and the fact that we’re getting closer to the end of this season is what made “Eastwatch” the most viewed Game of Thrones episode to date, with 10.72 million viewers.
The record was previously owned by “The Spoils of War” with 10.2 million viewers, which only held it for seven days, as it aired just over a week ago.
There are only two episodes left of Season 7, and with them being significantly longer than before, we have no doubt “Eastwatch” won’t keep this record for long.

Game of Thrones‘s Hot Pie Sells Direwolf-Shaped Loaves IRL
WARNING: Spoilers for Game of Thrones Season 7 ahead.
Fans of Game of Thrones in the U.K. had a chance to try that delicious bread Arya love made by Hot Pie himself.
In anticipation of last Sunday’s episode, “Stormborn,” Ben Hawkey, the actor who plays Hot Pie on GoT, partnered with Deliveroo, a London-based food delivery service to open up his own shop.
The online shop was called “You Know Nothing John Dough” (because of course it was), and it was selling direwolf-shaped loaves for £1.
Hot Pie made a surprise appearance on last weeks episode, followed by the comeback of Arya’s long-lost direwolf, Nymeria, so the loaves came at a very convenient time.
There was no physical location for the bakery, and unfortunately, the window for orders has already closed.
Hawkey said via High Snobiety:
“Hot Pie’s Direwolf loaves are a favorite for Game of Thrones fans, and people are always asking me for the secret of my recipe. I can’t share that, but Deliveroo customers will have the chance to try them themselves. You don’t even need to take a dangerous walk down the King’s Road to visit, it comes to you.”
