While unconfirmed, a Reddit post by user "TheRealFikiDoctor" claiming to contain a full description of the first episode has been widely shared online. The Independent will not be posting spoilers here.
Many people believe the post to be true thanks to HBO's long history of accidentally leaking episodes of Game of Thrones early.
