But when his good pal Matt showed up, he said: “One night he was near our house and as he left at four in the morning I said, ‘Hey mate, you don’t want to be in a video, do you? ‘ He said “Yes, no problem”. And I kind of kept him there.

Starting Monday night, the long-awaited Game Of Thrones prequel House Of The Dragon will unveil the tense, unruly and undeniably incestuous lives of Daenerys Targaryen’s distant relatives.

Matt has a prominent role in the series as Prince Daemon, the power-hungry younger brother of King Viserys and heir presumptive to the kingdoms of Westeros.

While anticipation is building fast, one hopes an early thaw doesn’t dampen the expectations of those still recovering from what is arguably the rushed climax of its predecessor – but what can we expect from the new show?

With £16million being spent on each of the ten hour-long episodes, one would expect quite a lot. Created by Game Of Thrones writer George RR Martin, the HBO series is based on his sprawling 2018 book Fire & Blood – A Comprehensive History of House Targaryen.

Set 200 years before the bloody Battle of the Seven Kingdoms depicted in Game of Thrones, House Of The Dragon documents the events leading up to Martin’s fictional War of Succession – a struggle for the throne ominously dubbed the Dance of the Dragons .

The bitter power struggle documented in the last two chapters of Martin’s novel serves as a tie between House Of Dragon and Game Of Thrones, drawing attention to the plight of the Targaryen clan and detailing why there are only two family members – Daenerys and her doomed brother Viserys – survived the culling.

With eight generations separating the new show from Game Of Thrones, one can’t expect much else in terms of backstory, and those hoping for a glimpse of the Lannisters and Starks of old may be disappointed.

In keeping with the author’s text, it will focus solely on the origins of the Dragon Queen Daenerys and the relatives who helped build the ultimately flawed Targaryen Empire.

House Of The Dragon will air on Sky Atlantic and streaming service NOW in the UK and HBO and HBO Max in the US from August 22nd.
