AceShowbiz - "Game of Thrones" star Gemma Whelan has yet to watch the final ever season of the show, despite starring in it.
The British actress played warrior Yara Greyjoy in the HBO fantasy series, and was seen intermittently during the six episodes of the eighth season.
Whelan's much-loved character Yara was last seen at the end of the final episode as she agreed to a proposal made by Tyrion Lannister, played by Peter Dinklage, that Bran Stark should become the new King of the Six Kingdoms.
However, the 38-year-old confessed she hasn't even watched her last ever scenes on "Game of Thrones".
"I haven't watched the end yet, no," she told host "Sunday Brunch" host Tim Lovejoy, before revealing that she does know what happens in the final episode.
"I do know what happens. I came home and my husband was watching it and I saw the final bit but I haven't seen most of the series yet, because we didn't have internet in our house," she laughed.
Whelan opened up about the effect of the show on her life, and admitted she was grateful to have one of the biggest TV shows in history on her CV.
"It was such a fun thing to do," she added. "It's hard to quantify – having that on your CV definitely changes things, but in terms of actually that being a tangible thing in your life, it's hard to know. But of course, it really does help."
