You'd be forgiven for thinking it was all politics and war in the world of Game of Thrones but a new blooper reel has come along to destroy that notion in a hilarious manner.

Surfacing during the HBO series' panel at this year's San Diego Comic-Con 2016, the assembled cast (including Sophie Turner, Liam Cunningham and Iwan Rheon) watched on as attendants laughed their way through a two-minute clip of the cast blundering their way through the hectic shoot of season six.

Highlights include Kit Harington larking about as Jon Snow's corpse, Emilia Clarke (Daenerys) struggling her way around the Dothraki language - atop a greenscreen dragon, of course - and Peter Dinklage (Tyrion) simply struggling with the English word 'benevolent.'

It's reassuring to know that even Emmy award-winning actors screw up from time to time.

It was recently revealed that Game of Thrones season seven would be airing in the summer, a few months later than the series usually premieres, with a shortened episode count of seven.
