The final season of one of the most popular Television shows, Game of Thrones, received mixed reviews from fans. While some liked the end, a lot of them made memes and also signed a petition to remake the final season.

Meanwhile, actor Lena Headey, who plays Cersei Lannister, opened up about her character in an interview with a leading media organisation. “I invested as a viewer and I have my favourite characters. And I’ve got a few of my own gripes. But I haven't sat down drunkly with David (Benioff) and Dan (Weiss) yet.” 

When asked what will she say to them, Headey said, “I will say I wanted a better death.”

She further added, “Obviously you dream of your death. You could go in any way on that show. So I was kind of gutted. But I just think they couldn't have pleased everyone. No matter what they did, I think there was going to be some big comedown from the climb.”

The finale episode aired on May 20 (in India).
