Game Of Thrones Will End After Eighth Season

Sky News

The popular TV show Game Of Thrones will conclude after its eighth season, broadcaster HBO has announced.

The announcement was made by the new programming president for the US cable network, Casey Bloys.

Mr Bloys, speaking during the Television Critics Association press tour, added that a possible spin-off programme may be made.

Executive producers David Benioff and DB Weiss have previously suggested that the series may be approaching its end.

Game Of Thrones was recently renewed for a shortened seventh season of seven episodes, instead of the usual 10.

The penultimate season will be broadcast next summer. The eighth and final season is expected to follow in 2018.

Game Of Thrones picked up 23 Emmy nominations this month, the most of any show.

The series is adapted from George R.R. Martin's novels and stars Peter Dinklage, Lena Headey, Emilia Clarke and Kit Harington.
